    College Infrastructure

    The college infrastructure is not appropriate as per the demands of the students. Some necessary facilities are available like electricity is there 24/7, washrooms and water coolers are available on every floor. Benches are proper in classrooms, laboratories are equipped but not nicely, almost all books are available in the library, there is no wifi for the students, neither in college not in hostel. Living spaces are cleaned regularly but the food is not so hygienic.

    My experience here is good.

    College Infrastructure

    The campus is green but maintainance is required. More dustbins are required in the campus to maintain cleanliness. Food quality can be improved. Classroom has all the required facilities . Mainly cleanliness and maintenance is required.

    too good for studies.
