The dedicated placement cell works to provide adequate training, skills and placements to the students after graduation. Infrastructure: Baselios Mathews ll College of Engineering is situated at Sasthamcotta lake accompanied by trees all around and fresh air, and there is a spectacular lake view. The college has a well-maintained basketball, volleyball, football as well as badminton courts. Libraries with digital library function provide additional knowledge to the students apart from thousands of books. Well-painted and furnished classrooms are available with platforms for teachers.

Placements: Our college has a great placement opportunity offered to IT segments. Most companies from this segment come to our college to choose there candidates. Other departments like applied instrumentation has more opportunities for placement. 30%of students were placed last year. Efficiency of placement cell is very high as it provides support to even promote new entrepreneurs also. Infrastructure: Infrastructure is not as great as to be mentioned. Its a massive structure without a good atmosphere for a college. College has a wide number of skilled faculty members who guide us through our academics. Labs and classrooms are not very great, but still its okay. Food available in the canteen is typically south Indian dish. Faculty: Teaching is good and helpful for easy understanding. The strict management also Disclaimer: This PDF is auto-generated based on the information available on Shiksha as on 23-Sep-2021. ensures that the students are getting better knowledge every day.

Placements: The placements are good for computer science departments. Other companies are not placing students for engineering jobs rather for clerk jobs that may have a package of Rs. 5000 per month or more. The placements are very limited in our college. Others find jobs by themselves. Infrastructure: The infrastructure is not a top end one. It is good but not adequate for an engineering college campus. The surrounding is good with a great lake view of Sasthamcotta lake. It is one of the biggest freshwater lakes in India. Overall, the facilities are average and can be accepted. Faculty: The faculty are the heart of every professional institution, and our college is well- equipped with great teachers who have a lot of experience in their specified streams. Our faculty members are very helpful and support the students in a better way. I like almost every class. Other: Techfests are good, campus is average compared to other campuses around.

Placements: The placement from our college was very poor. Only, a few percent of Disclaimer: This PDF is auto-generated based on the information available on Shiksha as on 23-Sep-2021. students get placed on different companies. The placements, especially for this branch, is very poor. Not many companies will come here for placement. Mostly, not much famous are coming here for placement, and only a very few students are getting in placed under big company names. Overall, the placement is very poor. Infrastructure: The infrastructure is also not much good. Currently, there is only one block working for the entire department, and there is no separate block for different branch students. The structures are too old, and proper maintenance are not done. The paintings were done at the time of construction after that nothing is done. Only, the positive point is that the college has a synthetic volleyball court and a basketball court at the college front side and a badminton court inside the campus. Overall, the infrastructure is poor. Faculty: The faculty members have the good academic background, but many them lacks in the responsibility, and some are not even students friendly, while others are very much student friendly.

ABSTRACT The fish samples for the present study were collected from the Kanjiracode Kadavu Lake, Kollam during September 2017 to February 2018. A total of 19 species belonging to 18 families and 19 genera were collected from the study area during the present study. Diversity of fishes and threats to the fauna are discussed Key words: Thevally kadavu, fish diversity, threats. INTRODUCTION Fishes, one of the important component in the aquatic ecosystem and plays a significant role in the economy. The tropical aquatic system bestowed with diverse fish species . They occupy a significant position in the socio – economic fabric of the south Asian countries by providing the population not only the nutrients food but also income and employment opportunities. Forty per cent of the total catch of fishes in India is obtained from the Kerala State. An expert committee constituted by the Govt. of Kerala has strongly advocated transformations of the backwaters, reservoirs, lakes, ponds ,tanks etc in to fish farms. Information on the abundance and distribution of fishes forms the basic step in assessing the fishery resources and their management in aquatic biotopes. A comprehensive survey of the fishery resources of the lakes, rivers etc of Kerala has become essential for the effective management, planned exploitation and scientific conservation of these highly productive water bodies. India is endowed with a vast expanse of open inland waters in the form of rivers, canals, estuaries, natural and man made lakes, back waters, mangrove wetlands.

  • Tears for a Once-Large Lake
    Tears for a once-large lake To rephrase former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, our public plan implementations are a mockery wrapped in sham, inside a farce. Sasthamkotta Lake, the state’s largest freshwater lake and one of the 26 Ramsar sites in the country, in Kollam district is a wasteland today. A Ramsar site is UN-speak for an internationally designated wetland site that should be conserved and sustainably developed and used. The deterioration that the lake has faced is the opposite of what should happen at a Ramsar site and the issue has been raised continually by local people and environmental groups. It looked like a real difference could be made when Oommen Chandy’s UDF government allocated Rs 24.8 crore for conservation and protection of the Sasthamkotta freshwater lake. Together with this, another over Rs 30 crore was allocated for the water needs of Kollam via Kallada river and Pallikal river. This was in June 2013. Things changed, but for the worse. The largest freshwater lake continued to shrink and encroachers are taking over the land that lies bare. The lakes natural aquifers are blocked with waste. So, our politicians have stepped in again with what they feel is the best remedy under the circumstances: forming a committee. The LDF government constituted an expert committee, who are expected to prepare a management action plan for the conservation and protection of the Lake. According a report in The Hindu (April 19), the new committee comprises ‘experts and bureaucrats connected with the subject’ and 12 special invitees, who are bureaucrats from various departments.

    A Brief look at the life of Our Beloved Catholicos Baselios Mar Thoma Mathews II Published on May 9, 2006 By Rev. Fr. Alexander J. Kurien Vicar & President (1989-2007) St. Gregorios Indian Orthodox Church Of Greater Washington We mourn the loss of our former Catholicos H.H. Baselios Marthoma Mathews II, 89th successor to the Holy Apostolic Throne of St. Thomas. Our beloved Holiness passed away in the Lord from this earthy tent on January 26. The mortal remains of His Holiness were buried at Mount Horeb Monastery Chapel at Sasthamkotta. His Holiness Baselios Mar Thoma Mathews II, born January 30, 1915, was Catholicos of the East, Malankara Metropolitan, and 89th successor to the Holy Apostolic Throne of St. Thomas. His Holiness was born at Perinad in Kollam District of Kerala, and had his religious training at Old Seminary Kottayam and also at Basil Dayara, Pathanamthitta. Later he joined Bishop's College, Calcutta for his B. D. Degree, and studied Theology at the General Theologocal Seminary in New York. He was ordained Deacon in 1938 and then as Priest, Fr. Mathews, in 1941. It was during his stay at the Monastery of St. George (Dayara) in Othara that Father Mathews made his marks as very a devoted and an outstanding priest of the Indian Orthodox Church. Because of his passion for serving the Lord and helping others, he was called “Angel Achen.” On May 15, 1953 he was ordained Bishop of Indian Orthodox Church at the age of 38.
