MIT?to file complaint over 'fake notice' on masturbation

Udupi, Dec 24: Anotice' that was displayed on the notice board of Manipal Institute of Technology (MIT) on Tuesday has raised many eyebrows. The notice says that the hostel drains are blocked due collection of students' semen after masturbation.

Thenotice' issued on the letter head of Manipal University and in the name of MIT chief warden Col C M S Kalakoti hasinstructed students not to masturbate in shower (bath room). It is a violation of the Manipal Servicecorp Facility Management (MSFM) guidelines.

The notice reads that the shower drains are not designed to handle semen. The maintenance of semen-clogged drains is costly and, it will be reflected in the hostel fees next year. Students have to bear the expenses from their pockets to clean the drain blockage, it stated. The notice has also appealed to the students to masturbate in their rooms.

MIT Director Dr G K Prabhu told DH that he will lodge a complaint with cyber crime police as the notice is fake. “It is a prank,” Prabhu stated. Two boys studying in the first and third year at MIT said that they have never come across such notices and, the notice is a fake one.
