faculty, motivated and efficient non-teaching staff as well as diligent and hardworking students from
diverse socio-economic background. Effective delivery of curriculum is ensured through regular classes
and systematic evaluation. The convenient location and connectivity by both road and rail enables the
students from diverse parts of the district to reach the college. The institution also has a dedicated NSS
Unit that ensures a clean and green atmosphere of the college.
� WEAKNESS: The institution suffers from a lack of adequate no. Of classrooms.
Communication skills are weak as majority of the students are first generation learners. The institution
suffers from a lack in the required no. of computers.

class students. Proposals are being undertaken for introduction of PG courses in some subjects.
� THREAT: The institution suffers from fund crisis. Internet connectivity at times
become quite challenging. The college is yet to ensure 100% attendance. Due to the economic stringency
of the students and their efforts to supplement their family income, 100% attendance in the class is not
ensured.

organize students’ seminars, quiz contests, excursions/educational tours.
