After Holi, a disciplinary proposal brings care, policing and hostel restrictions into the same conversation. Dev fears that seeking counselling will create a list for the warden, while Lata worries about prescribed medication and a screening form. The committee writes a help-first clause and clarifies who can see health information. The change makes a promise concrete enough for students to trust.

After Holi, a disciplinary proposal brings care, policing and hostel restrictions into the same conversation.

Seeking help should not itself trigger discipline; care and any separate institutional investigation need clearly explained boundaries. If students expect private disclosures to reach disciplinary authorities, those who most need care may stop attending. Explain choice, confidentiality, who sees results and how prescribed medicines are handled in language students can understand.
Health professionals need a trusted therapeutic relationship, while allegations about supply belong to the appropriate institutional and legal process. Explain that the treatment-related protection discussed in the film has conditions; it is not a blanket exemption from the law.
In practice: Read the campus substance-use policy and locate the exact clause explaining what happens when a student voluntarily asks for help.
