Who is the Mathurawasi of IIT BHU ?

Actually this is not a permanent name, this can be given to anyone who belongs to Mathura. In the hostels of IIT Bhubaneswar, there is a culture of giving people nicknames and very few people may know the real name of their acquaintances. There may be many reasons for a nickname to get fame. Commonly it’s because the person with that nickname may have indulged in many activities and everyone got to know him by his nickname. Shubham Gupta is one of the students who was named Mathurawasi by his friends in Hostel on the very first day. The reason he got that nickname was that he came from a place near Mathura (Uttar Pradesh), although his hometown was Rajasthan. He used to be one of the most active members of DC++. And due to that reason, the nickname got famous. Mathurawasi is a very common nickname among the students of IIT BHU. Almost every other student from Mathura gets the nickname Mathurawasi.
