The College is conscious of its responsibility of being a part of the ongoing development related to the rising competition in higher education. We need to get ourselves assessed by the Accreditation Agencies. The NAAC Steering Committee constituted in 2014-15 worked hard and the College was accredited B+ (CGPA 2.51 on seven point scale) despite persistent extreme negativity being displayed by a few. Now the College IQAC is working hard for the second cycle with Dr. Atul Pratap Singh as its Coordinator. He and his team deserve appreciation.

The College Annual Day gives us an opportunity to review our activities and highlight our achievements. It is also an occasion for thanks giving, remembrances 16

Preliminary draft for restricted private use & not to be quoted and felicitation. I record my sincere thanks for the efforts of each and every one, who has contributed towards the development and stability of the college. Special mention may be made of the Governing Body; the Vice-Chancellor and his team; Directorate of Higher Education, GNCTD, PWD and the UGC officials.

I must extend my thanks to all those colleagues from teaching faculty who were available beyond the call of duty and have worked tirelessly for the college. Special thanks to all those ad-hoc teachers. I also convey my thanks to the Annual Day Central Coordination Committee led by Dr. M. S. Vats and Ms. Seema Sodhi and all its Sub-Committee Convenors and their respective teams.

Let me also underline that College derives a lot of its strength from students, and what they do and carry from here onwards. They are our true assets and we must collectively work for their future advancement and transform them into good citizens so as to contribute to the nation-building. I wish them all the best in their future engagements in life.

All my colleagues from the teaching and non-teaching including the Sectional heads and Caretakers deserve appreciation for all good that you see in the college.

Presenting this report in the presence of Hon’ble Guests, though a moment of pride, is also a moment of introspection. I take this opportunity to request my colleagues to join me in taking stock of our achievements and to recall what is still left and how it should be done. It is more so when a few continue to follow the path of negativity and engage in anti-college activism with unethical approach for reasons best known to them. This ultimately damages the image of institution, which ideally should be a place of worship.

The College has come a long way, but still a lot remains to be done. Sir, our public friendly initiatives in the past have resulted in an Overhead Bridge which we see on the main road, and also in the renaming of DTC Bus Stand as ‘Bhim Rao Ambedkar College Bus Stand’. The work for construction of 2nd floor has been completed. However, we need to work hard on many other fronts to further improve the ambience, creating healthy academic environment and starting new courses and prepare for better NAAC grade. Let us pledge ourselves and join together, to carry forward the college and build up a better future for younger generation. It will be good for all of us.

Before I close, let me again, on behalf of the college family and the Governing Body, express my gratitude to all the Hon’ble Guests on the Dias with the submission that the College always needs your support, guidance and blessings to reach new heights.

Thank you all again, Principal (Dr. G.K. Arora), 19.02.2020 17
