Delhi's Student Accommodation Crisis: Enforcement Measures and Student Support

The Delhi government has launched an enforcement drive against unsafe PGs in the city, aiming to formalize the sector and ensure structural safety, fire compliance, and occupancy norms are met. The move could put pressure on landlords and operators to improve conditions and ensure safety measures are in place. The government is also considering a 18-member committee to tackle the student accommodation shortage, explore additional housing supply, and establish a central database of hostels and PGs.
