Executive Summary, Criterion Wise Evaluative Report and Evaluation Report of the Departments Preface Ever since the assessment and accreditation by NAAC in 2002, Barrackpore Rastraguru Surendranath Collegeis the first college outside the Kolkata and the second college in West Bengal which is submitting the Self Study report for Re-accreditation. In the first assessment, the college was awarded ‘B’ grade with 73.13 percent of marks. The NAAC Peer Team gave some individual suggestion and guidelines in their Recommendation Report. Those suggestions and Recommendations gave a new dimension and imputes to the forward march of our institution. During the last five years we have tried out best to develop our institution with all the stakeholders of the college. The Self Study Report is given in two (2) Volumes. Volume one contains Institutional Data consisting of Profile of the College, Criterion wise Inputs, Profile of the Departments and Volume two contains Executive Summary, Criterion wise Evaluative Report and Evaluation report of the Departments. During the preparation of Self Study Report, we have to collect individual wise, Department wise and Institutional wise. In this regard, cooperative and assistances from all the stakeholders are gratefully acknowledged. Executive Summary While presenting our Self Study Report in connection with the Re- accreditation of Barrackpore Rastraguru Surendranath College, Barrackpore, 24 Parganas (North), West Bengal. I would like to quote from a Bengali Poem, written by Rabindranath Tagore to express the feeling for our quest for excellence, the vision of the college as: “ Je Nodee Haraae Sroat Cholite Na Paare Sahasra Shaibal Daam Baandhe Asi Taare” i.e. if the river stop flowing, it becomes covered by moss. If we want to project our country as knowledge economy we should not compromise on quality, the elixir of higher education. Quality higher education leads to human capital formation with higher productivity which can bring about higher economic growth we are striving for. Actually, we are cultivating, producing and disseminating knowledge in the institutions of higher education. It is a continuous process as we are striving for enhancement of knowledge through research activities in various fields and improvement in intellect and thought. We all know that change is the only constant in nature and we have to mould ourselves accordingly. During the last five years we acted upon different criteria as follow: Curricular Aspects: To facilitate vertical progression of our students we have introduced Four PG courses on autonomous basis since 2004. To increase horizontal mobility of students three new courses at the UG level have been introduced during the last five years. Four value added courses have been introduced to make the students globally competent and help them building their careers. At present, the college runs 26 UG programmes, Four PG programmes and six Value Added Programmes. College is offering sufficient Academic Flexibility . Well thought curricula have been designed on the basis of the feedback from different stakeholders. Teaching- Learning and Evaluation: So far as teaching–learning process is concerned we have given utmost importance on it. I Admission process is transparent and totally computerised. Students can avail of the opportunity of admission through Internet by Online Submission. Access and Equity: During the last five years there has been an increase in the number of students by almost 12%. The increase in the girls students is significant and it is now ~60% of the students population representing gender balance. 45% of the students are coming from the families whose monthly income is less than Rs. 5000/-and SC and ST students are given their due share as per Government norms. Monitoring the performance of the teachers, students and non-teaching staff is unique in this college. Daily basis performance appraisal of teachers is maintained which had been appreciated by the previous peer members during last visit. This unique feature is still sustained. Multi-cornered feedback mechanism has been emphasised and it is being used for reforms and developments. Feedback from the students in this college was started before the prescription given by the Peer members. This is also a special feature of this college and this is updated and sincerely maintained. Number of faculty members increased from 46 to 85. Besides, 56 Part time- management Appointee teachers have been appointed leading to improve the teachers: student ratio. Appointment procedure is very transparent and Teacher Quality is very high. Some Guest Teachers from different Universities and institute of repute like ISI, IACS, Bose Institute etc are invited to impart quality teaching at the PG level and UG level. Number of Non-teaching staff increased from 47 to 57 for better support services. The success rate at the end level examination of the University of Calcutta is almost 100% during the last five years. Students getting 1st class marks in absolute number and in percentage are increasing. The percentage of college students getting 1st class marks is more than the University average of the same. A good number of our students are rank holders in the University’s merit list. From the analysis of the result of the University of Calcutta it is seen that the college obtains the top position compared to the colleges of the neighbourhood area i.e. in the North 24 Parganas District and the college II occupies a place in the top 10 colleges among the affiliated college to the University of Calcutta. This has been possible through continuous evaluation of the students. Research, Consultancy and Extension: A Research Monitoring Cell has been formed to motivate the teachers and postgraduate students to engage themselves in research and project works. Around fifty percent of the teachers are engaged in direct research and number of publications by the faculty is reasonably high. College is funding at present for six Minor Research Projects. Career Development cell is participating in consultancy and generating resource. College has developed a strong culture of its NCC & NSS activities. Extensive community services through Thalassaemia Eradication, Voluntary Blood Donors Club, Adoption of a Municipal Ward are the commitments towards society. The College has set up a number of collaboration with different organizations of national and international repute like Indian Red Cross Society, IGNOU, IACS etc. Infrastructure and Learning Resources: To ensure quality in education we have to emphasise on Capacity Building encompassing options. Physical infrastructure has been more than doubled from 60000.sq. ft. to 125000 sq. ft. Number of computer increased from 32 to 160 leading to ratio 1:35 Up gradation of computers with latest versions.

Student Support: System of monitoring student progression through different mechanism. To aware the students of the dignity of labour on the one hand and enthuse the financially challenged students to pursue their studies on the other, college promote the “Earn and Learn” programme and ‘Art Exhibition’ programme. On average every year 12% students are receiving Merit and Means Fund. Accidental Insurance benefits up to Rs. 22000/-has been arranged to the students for the treatment.

In the history of this new scientific awakening Acharya Prafulla Chandra Ray (1861-1944) occupies a significant position who realized the importance of science as integral to nationalist consciousness and nation building. Ray envisioned science to be a common concern of all humankind which was to be integrated with the development of a public use of reason and the emergence of Indian Nationalism through the establishment of national industry. In this paper my endeavour will be to locate Acharya Prafulla Chandra, not only as a scientist but also as an industrialist, a social thinker, an educationist and a cultural theorist who played a significant role in the social reformation, moral regeneration, economic development and political emancipation of India. In scrutinizing the corpus of Ray’s writings on science, industry and society, I shall try to trace a consistent postcolonial strain in Ray that used the tools of mimicry and imitation to challenge the colonial apparatus. Keywords: Nationalism, Postcoloniality, Acharya Prafulla Chandra Ray. I can assure you, however, dear sister, that in serving my favourite science I have only one idea in my mind, namely, that through her I should serve my country.

After much endeavor, the institution is all set to go for the first cycle assessment and accreditation by NAAC. It was quite a task to comprehend, grasp and fulfill all the parameters of the SSR; especially so, because the College is spread over three shifts at three different timings. Connecting to and co-ordinating with 213 teachers and 76 non-teaching staff were difficult, but in the long run, fruitful. In between full session classes and with the trepidation of a nervous first- timer, keeping the deadline intact was a sweating struggle with time. All segments of the College were made to sit up and contribute their bit. Ms. Piyasa Bhowal and Sri Saumen Maity assisted us all the way through with their diligent typing.

    UNIT – II SOCIAL THINKERS RAJA RAM MOHAN ROY (1772 — 1833) Introduction: Raja Ram Mohan Roy was a great socio-religious reformer. He was born in a Brahmin family on 10th May, 1772 at Radhanagar, in Hoogly district of Bengal (now West Bengal). Ramakanto Roy was his father. His mother’s name was Tarini. He was one of the key personalities of “Bengal Renaissance”. He is known as the “Father of Indian Renaissance”. He re- introduced the Vedic philosophies, particularly the Vedanta from the ancient Hindu texts of Upanishads. He made a successful attempt to modernize the Indian society. Life Raja Ram Mohan Roy was born on 22 May 1772 in an orthodox Brahman family at Radhanagar in Bengal. Ram Mohan Roy’s early education included the study of Persian and Arabic at Patna where he read the Quran, the works of Sufi mystic poets and the Arabic translation of the works of Plato and Aristotle. In Benaras, he studied Sanskrit and read Vedas and Upnishads. Returning to his village, at the age of sixteen, he wrote a rational critique of Hindu idol worship. From 1803 to 1814, he worked for East India Company as the personal diwan first of Woodforde and then of Digby. In 1814, he resigned from his job and moved to Calcutta in order to devote his life to religious, social and political reforms. In November 1930, he sailed for England to be present there to counteract the possible nullification of the Act banning Sati. Ram Mohan Roy was given the title of ‘Raja’ by the titular Mughal Emperor of Delhi, Akbar II whose grievances the former was to present 1/5 before the British king.

Almost a decade back it was precisely at this time of the year we were racing against time to prepare the first edition of the Self-Study Report amidst a plethora of surmise and conjecture, if not little bit of trepidation. The institution witnessed an unprecedented flurry of activities! Everyone, whatever be the nature of his/her relevance to the institution plunged into action for the NAAC Peer Team‘s visit. The ‗trophy moment‘ arrived in April the following year (i.e. 2007) with the institution finally being accredited by the NAAC! Sauntering down memory lane and reliving the past has a wonderful therapeutic effect both on the human being and on the institution. One‘s moments of recognition and achievements in the past inevitably embolden one to face the present and the future with courage and determination! In the fourth week of December 2015, just a whisker away from uploading the SSR for the Second Cycle of NAAC assessment, one is plagued with mixed emotions.
