Hostels in IITD!

There are 11 hostels in IITD and hotel spirit rules high here. Every hostel has a very peculiar character and as you spend your life here in IIT, from the very look, you can identify the hostel of an IITan.

Some guys are chauvinistically devoted to their hostels and spend their entire 4 years singing their hostel anthems. Winning the GC or the RCA and the other 3 (BSP, BHM, BSW) for their hostel is the only goal in their life. There are others that are free and careless and make their preparations for the events on the last day.

So here's the list of all the IITD hostels :


Jwalamukhi(Jwala)- That's my hostel and this year's GC(General Championship) champs.

Vindhyachal(Vindy):- One of the most chauvinistic hostels and this year's RCA champs and last year's GC champs.

• Pure saal ye dekha sapna, RCA cup hoga apna, aaj suno tum ye ailaan, Vindy ka hai ye maidaan, Jai Vindi( Special slogan on winning GC)

Zanskar- Newest hostel in IITD. Had only PhD's, MTechs and first yearites.

Girls' hostels:

Kailash and Himadri- These two hostels are situated at the other end of IIT campus and are surrounded by professors' quarters, probably so that, the naughty IIT boys don't bother the girls!!!

There exists some difference between Himadri and Kailash girls, probably in the way they walk or dress! A look is good enough to tell a boy, in which hostel the girl is...
