Hi
Your profile suggests that you are an engineering aspirant in class 12th currently.
Yes, mobile phones are allowed in both hostels and college throughout your college life including your 1st year as you will be away from your parents and it is important for being connected with them and also generally you have college group on WhatsApp where you get notifications and notices .
But in hostel / college you will be master of your own, so you need to take your own decisions and that should be in the favour of your goals. So, Just because, you have mobile doesn't mean that you can use it , play games all day long,you need to use it in a wise manner, for example, if you want to play games then obviously you can do it but it should be for limited time and it shouldn't hamper your studies.
Also, make sure that you don't use mobile in your college while attending lectures etc.
If you have any other doubt then you can always reach us to clear them :) we are always available to help you out and guide you
Thank you
