    Preface

    It gives me a sense of pleasure, pride and privilege to present an account of this

    institution. Having taken a long intellectual and educational journey, the institution

    has successfully acquired the status of College of Excellence from Higher Education

    Department, Haryana. It is a great challenge to transform our raw human resources

    into educated, professionally skilled and socially responsible citizens, who are the real

    wealth of a nation.

    The task before the steering committee comparing more than twenty senior faculty

    members was a tremendous and mind boggling exercise as different kind of

    information regarding the institution was to be synchronized, harmonized and

    synthesized. Thanks to all the members of teaching and nonteaching staff with the

    help of whom the steering committee overcame all the bottlenecks and succeeded in

    the presentation of this Self Study Report.

    I express my sincere gratitude to Dr. Ved Parkash Sheoran who gave the steering

    committee full autonomy and responsibility in the task of preparing a true account of

    the institution. I heartily appreciate the sincere efforts of all my colleagues, conveners,

    members of activities, various activity cells, NCC, NSS. I am sincerely thankful to Dr.

    Sushil Dalal who consented to read the report between the lines and gave valuable

    suggestions in the completion of the report. I am also sincerely thankful to Dr. Uma

    Awasthi, coordinator of IQAC, provided the valuable information in preparation of

    this report.

    Message from the Principal

    Winston Churchill has famously remarked that an optimist sees

    opportunity in every difficulty and challenge. Serving at Rohtak,

    the educational capital of Haryana, I feel a sense of challenge as

    well as opportunity as the Principal of Pt. Neki Ram Sharma Govt.

    College, Rohtak.

    I have made a promise to myself that Ill leave no stone unturned in my efforts to take

    the college to new academic heights and bring about a positive change wherever there

    is a need for it. An African proverb says that smooth waters do not make skilful

    sailors. I feel this is an opportunity to develop and hone my skills for the allround

    development of the college.

    To my great satisfaction, I have found the staff cooperative, receptive and responsible.

    With a strong infrastructure, efficient staff and hard working students, the college is

    on its way to achieve greater success and to accomplish bigger goals in the field of

    education.

    Welfare of students, especially that of girls, has always been on the top of my priority

    list. We have been able to establish a homely atmosphere in the college where all

    students feel inspired to pursue their education in a hassle-free environment. They feel

    free to contribute by sharing their innovative ideas with the principal and to raise their

    grievances and get them redressed immediately. To make the girl students feel special

    and privileged, the central lawn of the college and reading room in the main library

    have been earmarked for their exclusive use. They also have a common room to

    themselves.

    I feel a sense of relief and satisfaction to know that the college is gearing up for 2nd

    cycle of accreditation by NAAC, Bangluru. It is not only desirable but also

    mandatory to remove the old order and system and replace it with the new.

    I believe in the principle of Participative Management where every member of the

    institute from menial staff to top management contributes their mite for the

    development of the institution. I extend my heartfelt thanks and gratitude to all the

    teaching, nonteaching and administrative staff of this institute who contributed in the

    preparation of the present SSR. I specially congratulate Sh. V.S. Rathee, Coordinator

    NAAC steering committee and Smt. Uma Avasthi, Cocoordinator of NAAC Steering

    Committee and Smt. Uma Avasthi, Coordinator IQAC for their untiring, dedicated

    and sincere efforts.

    (Dr. Ved Parkash Sheoran)

    Executive Summary of the College

    Pt. Neki Ram Sharma Govt. College is situated near Power House in the heart

    of Rohtak on the old Delhi-Hisar-Sirsa-Fazilka National Highway (NH-10) passing

    through mid of the town.

    The city of Rohtak is believed to be associated with Indo-Aryan origin and is

    recorded in the Vedas . The ruins of the ancient town at Khokrakot prove that

    perhaps the town is as old as Indus Valley Civilization as the Minar finds at

    Khokhrakot are typical of Indus Valley sites. It is also identified with Rohitika,

    mentioned in the Mahabharta. It was quite possibly the capital of Bahudhanyaka the

    kingdom of Yaudheyas. The ancient highway carried the trade of the Ganga plain to

    Taxila passing through Rohitika to Sakala. The existence of the town during the rule

    of Kushan is testified by the recovery of Khushana Pillar Capital decorated with

    carving of winged lions and riders. The Pillar capital represents the sculptor's

    excellence in his professional skill. An example of a lion capital of 1st & 2

    nd centuries

    A.D., it resembles the lion capital in the British museum at London, famous for its

    inscriptions. The riders on it are similar to the riders on elephant at Karle cave and

    figures at Sanchi Gateway. It is a significant example of the sculptural art of Haryana

    towards the beginning of the Christian era. Clay mounds of coins discovered at

    Khokhrakot have thrown important light on the process of casting coins in ancient

    India. The coin moulds of the later Yaudhyas of 3rd

    & 4th

    centuries A.D. have been

    discovered in large number here of the same and subsequent dates are several clay

    sealings. A Gupta terracotta plague and a head of later date have also been discovered.

    The town continued to flourish till the 10th century A.D.as coins of Samanta Deva,

    the Hindus King of Kabul have been found here.

    A centuries old fort was situated at Rohtak, in present Quila Mohalla. That fort

    was built by shekhs of Yaman under Kazi Sultan Muhammad Surkh during Ghori

    Dynasty kings. The then emperor Delhi Mahmud Tughlaq posted two brothers named

    Malik Idrees and Mubariz Khan at that fort in 1400A.D. The fort of Rohtak was

    besieged by Sayyad Khizer Khan in 1410 which could only succeed after a long seize

    of six months.

    Rohtak is one of the oldest Districts of Haryana. British officers used to reside

    here since 1810 A.D. The British constructed a Church at Rohtak, which was

    completed in 1867. It was named as All Center Church. Its central hall was built by

    Maj. Feindala in the memory of his daughter Athel Nora.

    The climate is almost same as that of Delhi due to Rohtak being just 70 kms

    far. Average annual rainfall in Rohtak city is 458.5mm (18.0 inches). Rohtak climate

    shows extreme variation in temperature. It does not usually fall below freezing point

    in the winter months from November to January. In summer from April to July, the

    day temperature generally remains between 30 C and 40 C occasionally going up to

    48 C on a few days.

    The college has the distinction of being one of the oldest colleges in Haryana.

    Spreading over twenty eight acres of land, it includes, among other things, one main

    old building, two four storey buildings and two single storey buildings, a big

    library, a canteen, parking lot, staff quarters and play grounds for sports activities and

    games. The college has more than 6000 students on rolls. Upholding the noble

    traditions established through its history, the institution surges ahead towards

    excellence. With the constant efforts of all the stakeholders and students, the

    institution has continuously been updating itself to the challenges in the field of higher

    education. The performance appraisal of the institution is summarized below:

    Rohtak has 16 national government institutes, making it one of the biggest

    educational hubs of the country. Rohtak Loksabha constituency is the only

    constituency in India to have AIIMS,IIM &IIT. Current renowed health university

    named after Haryana First Chief Minister Pandit Bhagwat Dayal Sharma will be

    upgraded to AIIMS. Indian Institute of Management, Rohtak is currently being set up.

    Indian Institute Of Technology Delhi is also being set up.

    These institutes along with Haryana's biggest university according to number

    of students enrolled Maharishi Dayanand University and numerous other institutes of

    fashion technology, film and media make it an educational city.

    The city hosts the Pandit Bhagwat Dayal Sharma Post Graduate institute of

    Medical Science (PGIMS) and Civil Hospital, both of which are operated by the State

    Government. There are also various privately operated medical facilities. Pt B.D.

    Sharma, PGIMS, Rohtak is situated at a distance of about 240Km from Chandigarh

    and about 70 Km from Delhi on Delhi-Hisar-Sirsa-Fazilka National Highway (NH-

    10). It is the only major Institution for Medical Education and Research and a health

    care centre for provision of specialized health care services not only to the people of

    the State of Haryana, but also to those from Punjab, Rajasthan, Delhi and western U.P.

    The Institute was started under the name of Medical College, Rohtak in the year 1960.

    The college offers pass courses and honours programmes and is affiliated to

    Maharishi Dayanand University, Rohtak. The curriculum is further strengthened and

    supplemented with certificate course in compulsory computer education, Level-I, II

    and III and Environmental Studies. The curriculum is constantly updated and every

    new academic programme is strategically planned and executed as per affiliating

    university guideline. The exposure of faculty in emerging areas through participation

    in National, International conferences, seminars, workshops, Refresher and

    Orientation courses and feedback from various stakeholders gives the right impetus

    and suggestions for necessary changes in the curriculum.

    2. TEACHING-LEARNING AND EVALUATION

    The college organizes teaching, learning and evaluation schedules by strictly

    following the University Academic Calendar and preparing its annual blue print of the

    academic events and co-curricular activities.

    Admission to various programmes is made by a transparent, well-administered

    mechanism, complying with all the norms of the concerned regulatory/governing

    agencies including state government along with the affiliating University. As per the

    directions of the university and Higher Education Department, Haryana, date of Sale

    of Application forms/Prospectus is notified on the notice board. Application form can

    be bought from the office and on the spot enquiries are attended to by a counselling

    team.

    The students have to apply for admission online w.e.f. 2013-14 session. For

    this they can download the admission form from the college website. Selection of

    students to the course is based on the marks obtained in the qualifying exam plus

    weightage of 10 percent maximum as per Govt. policy. The college also follows the

    reservation policy of the Government.

    The institution is well represented by students from different geographical area

    and socio-economic, cultural and educational backgrounds. The college has its own

    in-built mechanisms, updating continuously to achieve the goals of academic

    excellence.

    Fully aware of the extent and significance of institutional responsibility in the

    teaching learning and evaluation process, individualized teaching-learning

    programmes/ coaching are conducted to cater to the broad spectrum of academic

    calibre of students admitted. Class tests are conducted to assess the academic needs of

    the students and slow learners and advanced learners identified through these tests and

    assignments. Remedial classes are arranged to help the slow learners to adapt to the

    rigorous teaching learning process and to make credible academic progress.

    Specialized classes are organized for enhancing the competence and performance of

    advanced learners. SC/ST, OBC, minority and economically backward students are

    given remedial coaching. The college also organizes programmes to sensitize the

    faculty and students on gender inclusion and environmental consciousness.

    The college maintains a student-centric and learner-centric atmosphere to

    achieve the desired learning outcomes. The faculty members employ interactive and

  • 9

    participative approach creating a feeling of responsibility in learning. ICT based

    facilities are used extensively for dissemination of knowledge and evaluation. Faculty

    takes initiative to learn and keep abreast of the latest developments, to innovate

    continuously, seek improvement in their work and strive for individual and

    institutional excellence.

    Research, Extension and Collaboration

    Since the institution is a degree college and not a research institute, it does not

    have any recognized research centre of the affiliating University or any other

    agency/organization. Instead of research, teaching is the priority of the college.

    However, the individual teacher is involved in their respective research works. The

    college encourages its staff to take up research activities. The college provides full

    support in terms of administrative, academic and human resources required to enable

    faculty members to submit project proposals and approach funding agencies for

    mobilizing resources for Research.

    The college has a wide range of Extension and outreach programmes

    (Educational, General and Specific) with special focus on the under-privileged and the

    vulnerable sections of society. The Extension Programmes namely NSS, NCC,

    Women Cell, Red Ribbon Club and Legal Literacy Cell provide innumerable

    opportunities to students to reach out to society. Workshops, seminars, talks, poster

    exhibitions, awareness campaigns are regularly held by the various societies of the

    college and all departments for mass sensitization on different current issues.

    Infrastructure and Learning Resources

    Infrastructure facilities are a key to effective and smooth functioning of

    educational programmes. The institution has good infrastructure of four separate well-

    furnished buildings with spacious classrooms, well equipped labs, an EDUSAT room,

    smart classrooms, one language lab, a well stocked library with more than 92,000

    books, and two seminar hall with seating capacity of more than 150 audience. LCD

    projectors and interactive boards provide the good ambience for the effective conduct

    of academic programmes. There are more than 20 Broadband connections in the

    institution. The students and faculty members have easy access to these connections.

    With the changing requirements the institution is planning to expand its infrastructural

    facilities. There is a spacious canteen in the campus.The boundary wall has been

    raised to restrain anti social elements. CCTV cameras have been installed at strategic

    points to maintain security and academic ambience.

    Student Support and Progression

    Academic pursuits along with physical, mental and moral growth of students

    are the forte of our institution, thus preparing the students to face successfully the

    challenges of changing social scenario and for the progress and prosperity of the

  • 10

    nation. The diverse programmes in academics as well as sports, cultural and scientific

    activities are well synchronized and reinforced with an effective support system to

    produce human resources empowered with scientific skills blended with ethical

    values. The institution is earnestly endeavouring for the overall development of the

    students, by producing rational and responsible citizens with graduate attributes.

    The institution facilitates the students progression by providing proper

    guidance and counseling, academic base and exposure of extra and co-curricular

    activities. Communication skills are developed through practice of spoken English in

    the class room and language lab. An interface with job market and its requirement is

    provided by Guidance and Placement cell activities. The faculty members encourage

    the students to join reputed institutions for higher studies. Women Cell, Placement

    and Guidance Cell, Legal Literacy Club, Subject Societies, Students Grievances Cell,

    Sports and Cultural activities are providing the students a stage where they can prove

    their exposure. Student Grievance Redressal Cell, Anti Sexual Harassment Cell,

    Women cell etc. are always ready to sort out the problems of the students.

    Roll of Honour and College Colour are the excellent awards conferred by the

    institution upon star performers in various areas as a token of appreciation for the

    students with proven record of excellence throughout their campus life. The college

    promotes inclusive practices for social justice and better stakeholder relationships. The

    SC/ST/BC and economically needy students are provided equal opportunities by

    award of scholarships and stipends. Financial aid and work experience as a part Earn

    While You Learn scheme, scholarships, clothes during winter season, fee concession

    for needy student. The subsidized bus pass facility to all the students are some of

    welfare measures adopted by the college for students. Efforts are made to uplift them

    by organizing remedial classes. The college also pays special attention to students by

    providing support services for differently-able students.

    The students of the college have a platform in the form of its magazine

    Pratibhanjali, the annual literary supplement where they can give expression to their

    creative part of their inner urge by contributing their articles for various sections.

    Editorial board of the magazine includes student editors for each section to ensure

    their participation in the publication and preparation of the magazine. Moreover, the

    college organises a talent search and cultural festival every year.

    The college has a galaxy of alumnae who have done the institution proud over

    the past decades and they continue to wield an indelible impact in the contemporary

    scenario. The college has an Alumnae Association, which has a dynamic relationship

    with the alumnae. The college is trying to evolve a fresh mechanism to strengthen

    these bonds further by using new means of technology.

    Governance and Leadership

    The basic policy and plans regarding imparting education among the students

    are framed by the Higher Education Department, Haryana with the constant and

    combined efforts of college administration, faculty members and other non teaching

    staff for the better academic ambience and maximum welfare of the students. These

    constant efforts enable the students to remain in consonance and harmony with the

    changing requirement and scenario of the society.

    Top management involves the Higher Education Authorities of Haryana

    Government, the Principal and the faculty members along with non teaching and

    administrative staff of the college.

    The college has a clear and well-defined system to monitor and evaluate the

    effectiveness of implementation of the policies and plans in the institution. The

    college ensures that the desired objectives are being achieved through the IQAC.

    IQAC conducts a self-evaluative exercise for all the departments to draw a

    potential map of the strengths and weaknesses of the functioning of the college in

    various areas. Various committees have been established to facilitate efficient and

    smooth functioning of the college also evaluate the performance in their respective

    areas and submit the reports to the Principal.

    Finance and Accounts Department, working under the supervision of the

    Superintendent, administrative control of the Principal in consultation with the Bursar.

    Healthy Practices

    Participative Management through Delegation of Powers are best practices

    adopted by the institution. Head of the institution has to spend lot of time for

    discharge of administrative and academic duties. Division of duties and participative

    management relieves him of excess administrative burden and thus provides ample

    time for planning, execution, inspection and maintenance of transparency as well. The

    college suffers an acute shortage of supporting staff to look after the lawns, watering

    the plants, planting new saplings, training and pruning the old trees.
