The Union Advisor is the custodian of Student Union funds. The office bearers will request/propose in written to the Union Advisor/respective Advisors for students/Union related activities. The Principal shall release the fund only after duly recommended by the concerned Advisors. The Union Advisor will make necessary expenditure out of Student Union funds and maintain codal formalities and office bearers will assist him in this regard. It may be noted that the student office bearers will not be allowed to handle the cash directly.
