Academic Achievements - Toppers
NGO Activity
It is heartbreaking that our society has so many orphanages and old age homes. Our visionary Chairman wishes to assist these needy people. Also, he wanted to invoke the service mindset of our students by encouraging visits to orphanages, old-age homes, and homes for CP children.
NGO activities reveal young people's hidden potential to serve the needy and become responsible citizens. They gain exposure to the downtrodden lifestyle, which is critical for our country's development.
Our college provides special lunches (both vegetarian and non-vegetarian, with sweets, savouries, and ice creams) to all orphanage and old age home inmates. On Saturdays, students are provided with transportation to visit their homes. All students from first to final year, both U.G and P.G, enthusiastically participated and mingled with inmates of the home, spending the day with them and sharing their happiness. They also used their pocket money to help the inmates by providing them with rice bags, groceries, toys, clothes, pillows, stationery, and other necessities.
