DELHI RENT CONTROL MOVEMENT IS AN INITIATIVE BY THE STUDENTS TO CHECK THE SKYROCKETING RENT INCREASE WITHOUT LEGAL SANCTION AND TO MAKE ENDEAVOUR FOR REGULATION OF THE SAME. THE PLIGHT OF STUDENT(S) RESIDING IN DELHI FOR HIGHER EDUCATION IS WORST AMONG ALL,IT PROBABLY NEED NO ILLUSTRATION BUT THE SITUATION OF STUDENTS MIGRATED TO DELHI FROM FAR REMOTE PLACES OF INDIA -MANIPUR TO GUJRAT AND FROM KA
SHMIR TO KANYAKUMARI ARE GROSSLY DISTURBING DUE TO MEGRE RESOURCES TO SUSTAIN IN THE CLUMSY ATMOSPHERE OF RENT HIKE AND VIRTUAL DESPOTISM AND EXPLOITATION BY THE LAND LORDS. PRINCIPALLY THREE MAJOR CLASSES OF PEOPLE MIGRATES TO DELHI:-
1- THE STUDENT(S) FOR HIGHER EDUCATION IN UNIVERSITIES ESPECIALLY THE DELHI UNIVERSITY WHRE DUE TO ABSENCE OF HOSTEL FACILITIES AND NON IMPLEMENTATION OF SECTION 33 OF DELHI UNIVERSITY ACT-1922, HE IS BOUND TO LIVE IN RENTED ACCOMMODATION.
2- THOSE WHO COME TO DELHI IN SEARCH OF EMPLOYMENT FROM VARIOUS PLACES OF INDIA.
3-THOSE WHO COME TO SUPER SPECIALITY HOSPITALS FOR TREATMENTS. THE SITUATION OF ALL ABOVE CLASSES OF PEOPLE IS DEPLORABLE AND THEY ARE ALREADY UNDER SEVERE PLIGHT FOR SURVIVAL AND THE UNBRIDLED,UNTIMELY, ARBITRARILY INCREASE IN RENT IS A CONCERN FOR ALL. OUR DEMANDS:
1- THE ENFORCEMENT OF DELHI RENT CONTROL ACT IN ITS SPRIT. THE ELECTRICITY AND WATER BILLS SHALL ON GOVERNMENT RATES.
2- THE SPECIAL ARRANGEMENT AND RENT REGULATION BY GOVERNMENT WHICH SHOULD BE PERIODICALLY REVISABLE IN UNBIASED MANNER.
3-WATER ATM AND JAN AAHAR STALL IN STUDENT AREA.
4- ARRANGEMENT FOR LIBRARY AND HOSTEL FOR ALL STUDENTS.
