BEST PRACTICES:

Green Campus:

In this era of deforestation and environmental problems associated with it, we conduct afforestation drives where the students and members of the staff are encouraged to plant saplings and nurture them. This, in turn, helps us in maintaining a lush green campus which is environment friendly and student-friendly. The greenery on campus makes it the habitat of rich and varied flora and fauna.

Moreover, this practice inculcates in the students and other members of the college community the spirit of nurturing nature, and promotes a feeling of oneness with nature and fellow beings.

Solar Energy:

Sustainable development is the key to a better present and a brighter future. As a step towards harnessing and using renewable sources of energy, the roof-tops of some buildings on campus are equipped with solar panels. The energy generated is used for operating the street lights on campus.

Sensitisation and Awareness Programmes:

A sensitive and aware generation is the need of the hour. We conduct sensitisation and awareness programmes for students, faculty members and non-teaching staff on a regular basis. Some of the core areas we focus on include:
