It has been instrumental in introducing diverse measures for quality enhancement during the post accreditation period. The College has fulfilled almost all the recommendations of the peer team in a planned and phased manner. The process of preparing the SSR has created an in depth awareness amongst all the staff members, students and stakeholders of the College about the academic processes and administrative procedures involved, the contribution it has made for societal development, and future actions it has to take in view of nation building through 'The Skill India' and 'Make in India' mission. The SSR preparation has given an opportunity to confidently reassure ourselves that all the academic activities of SR&BGNR Government Arts and Science College, Khammam are in line with its vision and mission statements and with the core values of NAAC. The preparation of the SSR was a collective effort by all the teaching and non-teaching staff of the College. All have contributed significantly in analyzing the processes in each criterion and in helping us to identify our strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and also future challenges and in the systematic recording of all relevant information.

SSR 3 rd Cycle, 2017 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Sri Rama and Bhaktha Gentela Narayana Rao Govt. Arts & Science College, Khammam was established in the year 1956 under private management. The then Chief Minister Sri Boorgula Rama Krishna Rao and Sri G.V. Butt, the then District Collector of Khammam took the initiative for its establishment along with a committee formed with the elite of the town. The primary objective was to provide higher education to the students of the marginalized sections and Tribal community of Khammam District. The College was named after the Chief Donor, Sri Gentela Narayana Rao. The College was taken over by the state government on 1-09-1959 and it acquired permanent affiliation to the Osmania University in 1972. Eventually the affiliation is transferred to the Kakatiya University, Warangal. Under the able and missionary administration of Principals like K.Y.L Narasimha Rao, D.Natesan, Bankat Lal Agarwal, Dr.K.S.R. Sharma and M. Ramachander Rao the College has grown into an Identified Lead College in the district with a potential to produce a student force equipped with academic excellence and global skills. The motto of the College is ‘Enter to Learn, Leave to Serve’ with a mission to produce autonomous learners who turn out to be independent, self-contained, confident human resource to the nation. In the long history of its onward march towards imparting quality instruction, supported by technology, the College introduced Restructured and Self Finance Courses in addition to the Conventional Courses it has been offering since its inception. With the onset of technology-driven society, the College realized the need to address the global demands and began to impart instruction and training in communication, soft and employable skills through a mechanism of its own. The College acquired state-of-the-art technology, automation, net connectivity, added infrastructure and so on in its long journey towards fulfilling its vision and mission. Many a support service are instrumental in imparting value-based, quality instruction to the young of the most needy and marginalized sections of society who also happen to be first generation literates. 3 | P a g e SR&BGNR Govt Arts and Science college (A) Khammam.
