Over 150 students of Government Arts and Science college today staged a demonstration at the college entrance, protesting the quality of food being served at the girl's hostel.
Raising slogans against the college administration, the students said the quality of food was very poor and served in unhygienic condition, leading to frequent health problems.
Moreover, the breakfast was being served very late and most times they have to skip it in a hurry to go to the classes, police said. Besides, the condition of toilets were very pathetic, they said.
College Principal Jayalakshmi assured the students that she would take up the matter with the management, after which they dispersed, police added.
