History of the College Bears Testimony to the Fact That It Has Always Been Amenable to Changes by Acclimatizing Itself to Changing Academic Milieu and New Policies NAAC – Self Study Report Preface PREFACE We are highly indebted to NAAC Peer Team for examining our systems and validating our claims about our robust health in our first accreditation and assessment in the year 2004. While their approval and appreciation fortified our resolve to touch greater heights in all areas of education, their fruitful suggestion have helped us remove every flaw.

From the time of inception in the year of 1967, BBK DAV has its own mechanism to monitor its growth and development. Quality has been the hallmark and excellence the watchword of BBK DAV. NAAC has gifted us seven pairs of eyes in the form of its seven criteria to scrutinize our weaknesses and strength. Thanks to the gifted pairs, the ever- going process of self appraisal and improvement was intensified to remove every shortcoming and bolster the strengths to promote the core values among higher education institutes of the country. As we present ourselves for reaccreditation and re-assessment, we reiterate our commitment to continually fine-tune education to meet the expectation from all the stakeholders.

  • Amrita Pritam ----She Lived by Her Own Rules Big Hike in Cash Prize for Sports Persons
    www.punjabadvanceonline.com Gandhi Jayanti (Oct 2) 2 Punjab Advance August 2016 Editorial Where is that glory that reverence the Punjab farmers enjoyed when they put everything at stake to usher in the Green Revolution. They responded to the call of the nation, abandoned the traditional farming methods in the late 1960s and 1970s and fell to the crafty advisers from the US and other countries to grow crops the American way – with chemicals, high- yielding seeds and irrigation. The selfless devotion of the Punjab farmer, saw the nation climb up the lad - der. From a beggar it became an exporter of grains. Yes the country food bowl was overflowing with grains, but at the cost of the dwindling groundwater of Punjab. The new miracle seeds produced far bigger yields, but they came with a catch: The thirsty crops needed much more water than natural rainfall could provide, so the farmers had to dig wells and irrigate with groundwater. The demand for more grains, saw the farmers pumping excessive groundwater to irrigate their crops resulting in a dramatic fall in the water table. The level began to drop more than 3 feet every year. Deeper water table meant high powered tubewells sucking out whatever was left deep down in the earth. The cost went up, the soil also started show - ing damage because of the chemicals. This is where the money lenders came into the picture. Excessive spending on agriculture because of low water table, bad soil and low MSP added to the woes. The mounting debts have taken their toll in farm suicides.

It promotes the dynamic connections between gender and sexuality across a diverse range of religious and spiritual lives, cultures, histories, and geographical locations, as well as contemporary discourses around secularism and non-religion. The series publishes cutting-edge research that considers religious experiences, communities, institutions, and discourses in global and transnational contexts, and examines the fluid and intersecting features of identity and social positioning. Using theoretical and methodological approaches from inter/transdisciplinary perspectives, Bloomsbury Studies in Religion, Gender, and Sexuality addresses the neglect of religious studies perspectives in gender, queer, and feminist studies, and offers a space in which gender-critical approaches to religions engage with questions of intersectionality, particularly with respect to critical race, disability, post-colonial and decolonial theories. 9781350041752_txt_final.indd 2 24-09-2019 21:23:27 Beyond Religion in India and Pakistan Gender and Caste, Borders and Boundaries Virinder S.

  • Fizzy Drinks Bad for Teeth
    Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji 551st Prakash Purb (Nov 30) 2 Punjab Advance November-2020 Editorial The three bills passed by the Punjab Assembly on October 21st, 2020, ostensibly to undo the Centre’s recently enacted farm reform laws, make a populist political point. Proof of it is the provision of “imprisonment of not less than three years and fine” for any purchase of produce at below the official Minimum Support Price (MSP). Farmers across the country are no doubt restive today. The fact that MSP doesn’t even find a mention in the laws enacted recently by the Cen - tre has fueled mistrustamong the farmers who fear that the time-tested regime is on its way out. Though the Union Government has been in - sisting that this system would continue, the farming community in Pun - jab and other states remain unconvinced. The Bills passed by the Punjab Vidhan Sabha seek to amend the Central legislation to ensure that wheat and paddy – the staple crops grown in the grain-surplus state – are not bought for not less than the respective MSP.Guaranteed MSP is certainly music to the toiling farmers’ ears. With the Central agencies procuring crops at best at the fixed MSP, some states have been offering a bonus – over and above the support price – to compensate the farmers. But the Commission for Agricultural Costs and Prices (CACP) has cautioned that such moves create distortions in the market and affect the “balance of crops”. Let us agree, that the sparring over the terms of reference of the Fif - teenth Finance Commission (with southern states worried about the al - location if new population figures are taken into account), the controversies around the Goods and Services Tax (GST) regime (with states unhappy with the Centre for failing to meet its commitments on compensation payments): and now Punjab’s decision to bring its own leg - islative framework on the farm bills all point to a new trend.
