The College campus spreads over 46 acres. Inorder to accommodate the present strength of students, the College has required number of buildings, lecture halls, library, laboratories, auditorium, indoor stadium and playground. The aim of the institution is to attract more and more students and to improve the student enrolment by introducing new courses and providing better infrastructural facilities for both Degree and Higher education. The vast land far away from the huzzle and buzzle of the town is an added advantage for us to go for further expansion. The stepwise upgradation of academic and administrative buildings, hostels, library, laboratories, Indoor stadium, etc., and the provision of more equipments and research facilities is being undertaken. Since the institution is situated in an economically and educationally backward area, provision of freeships, mid-day meals and books are also taken up with financial support from the Alumni Association, Parent- Teacher Association, faculty members and well-wishers of the College. Our College has good number of SC/ST/OBC students. In order to improve their equity, academic standards and employability, additional facilities are provided to them. Some steps initiated for this purpose are- Creation of equal opportunity cells, Remedial and skill development classes, financial aid, etc., The women students are more in number compared to men students. Several welfare measures are taken up to provide them healthy learning environment. Women empowerment cell and Women Harassment redressal cell are constituted and awareness programmes are organised. The institution has a functional Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC) which includes the Principal and representatives from Management, Teaching and non-teaching staff, alumni and general public. In association with Student Welfare Committee, Alumni Association and Parent-Teacher Association, the IQAC has developed several quality enhancement mechanisms. It supports the organization of workshops, awareness programmes, guest lectures, teaching-learning and evaluation, research oriented seminars, use of advanced teaching and learning resourcesetc. It collects, maintains and analyses documents about the various academic actvities. The Policies and plans about quality assurance are communicated to the stake holders in the meetings of the different associations. The detailed annual report of academic activities, examinations, results, etc., are reported to NAAC in the form of Annual Quality Assurance Report(AQAR). It collects and analyses the feedback from variousstake holders and suggests necessary steps for quality sustenance and enhancement.
