Efforts for Carbon neutrality The college campus is plastic-polythene free zone, since June 2014 which makes the campus eco-friendly.

Recycling of the waste paper – The college uses one side used papers for Xerox / printing purpose for making office copies. This avoids unnecessary wastage of paper and contributes to the green process. Envelopes are also made out of used papers in which one side can be put to use.

Hazardous waste management Since we do not have Chemistry and Radiation Physics Course in Science stream, as such there is no hazardous chemicals and acid waste. But, other wastes are separated as biodegradable (organic wastes) and non- biodegradable (plastics etc) are dumped in the waste pit placed separately in the corner of the campus. The waste when decomposed is reused as organic compost for the plants in the college campus.

E-waste management Non-working computers, monitors and printers are discarded and scrapped. Those parts that are found useful are kept aside for future use.
