Dear Student,

Yes, you can communicate with your parents every day using your own phone while staying in the hostel. Most hostels allow students to keep their personal phones so they can stay in touch with their families regularly. However, the usage rules may differ from one hostel to another.

It is always a good idea to check with your hostel about their phone usage policy, but in general, students are allowed to talk to their parents every day without restrictions as long as it does not interfere with their daily routine or academic schedule.

Thank You
