comes to know every detail of the admission (right from the number of SC, ST, OBC, girl students and

meritorious students etc). Similarly principal gets all information regarding class teaching, field trips, debates,

association activities, sports, cultural activities and examinations etc. from committees and concerning faculty.

The feedback from the students is collected analyzed and necessary actions are taken.

6.1.5 The institution has effective internal coordination. There is full involvement of the staff in the institution building

process. This makes sure that the staffs feel that this is their institution and work with utmost dedication. The Principal

by equitable distribution of responsibilities gives faculty fair chances to show their abilities to perform. Time to time

oral appreciation and written appraisal encourages good workers and pointing out of mistakes discourages

carelessness among the faculty and the employees. This makes every faculty and employee of the institution to work

carefully, that ultimately leads to the institutional process for efficiency and effectiveness.

6.1.6 Principal for the good governance & the management of the institution always interact and keep in

touch with teaching, non-teaching staff and all the stake holders such as district administration, public

representatives, ALUMNI, PTA, students, NGO’s, social activitists, media persons & learned persons of the

society. Principal for the betterment of the college gives thoughtful and adequate attention to the suggestions

of all so that all stakeholders become willing partners, working for the betterment of the institution. It helps

the institution to face the new challenges. Principal with good stewardship collects all the inputs given by

different stake holders & use them for the good governance & management of the college.

6.2.2 College administration is fully decentralized. Subject specific decisions are taken by the concerning committee

members & finally approved by the Principal. The head of institution as well as the coordinators of the committees are

responsible to monitor the activities of the institution and it is the duty of every faculty and employee to work

accordingly. There are certain topics common in different departments. If one is specialist in any of the topics than

specialist goes to other department and collaborate with other department. The Principal has given direction to all the

departments to share the infrastructure and knowledge to plan, perform and promote good teaching, research and

extension activities in the College. Before 2008 when whole of the college teaching was not aided with ICT, there were

standing orders of the principal to share the ICT. This is one of the ways for inter departmental collaboration and it

gives way to qualitative improvement of the college education. There is effective internal coordination among faculty

and non-teaching staff also.

6.2.3 College has evolved its own effective internal coordination and monitoring mechanism. Different committees are

formed to perform various works. Committee members work with full coordination and co-operation to perform with

perfection. Senior faculties with the able leader ship of Principal and active co-operation of all monitor the whole

process and finally reach to the conclusion in every sphere and every work of the college.

6.2.4 Yes, college does have grievance redressal cell for its employees. The first duty of GRC is to accept the complaint.

The institution has 03 members Grievance Redress Cell for its employees. Following are the members- For the

year2007-08 Ms. S.Gupta, Mrs. J.Panwar. Dr. S.Srivastava were the committee members. In 2008-09 Dr.S.C.S.

Kushwaha, Mrs. R.Panchola, Dr.M.Sharma were in the committee. The cell is supposed to receive the complaints and

to resolve the issues related with grievances of the employees of the institution. However, no complaints were

received by the cell for the last five years.

6.2.5 This is a government college. Very often Principal meets to the staff in an academic year, though the number of

the meetings is not fixed but as an when it is required the meetings are held with staff. In the last meeting admission

matter was discussed for the calendar year 2010-11.

6.2.6 Yes, there is a cell to prevent sexual harassment of women staff. It is vigilant but not a single case has been

reported for the last 5 years. For the year 2007-08 Mrs. J.Panwar ,Dr.S.Srivastava,Mrs R.Panchola and Dr.M.Thapliyal

were in this committee, 2008-09 Dr. H.Bisht ,Dr. S.Gupta, Dr. S.Srivastava, Mrs. R.Panchola, Dr.M.Thapliyal were the

committee members.

6.3 Strategy Development and Deployment

6.3.1 College has sincerely made efforts to develop perspective institutional plan. Principal time to time call the

meeting of teachers, students and non –teaching staff, alumni, PTA office bearers and local administration and

decides the priorities of development. In the November 2006 the meeting proposed following thing for coming

years-

The pedagogy method needs to be modernized with central audio-visual technology, Internet lab and other

modern teaching aids.

Office automation is most essential there for need of the hour is to take necessary action in this regard.

Girl students should be encouraged for their participation in sports and cultural activities.

B. Ed should be started in the college.

College should try to get funds for building the administrative block of the college what has been destroyed

in the fire.

College should try to construct the girls hostel.

Try to get funding from UGC to run remedial and other courses for the SC, ST, & OBC students of the

college.

Slowly college tried to achieve few things and working hard for others. Partially office has been automated; student s

information is just a click of a mouse away. B. Ed has been started, girls are participating in inter collegiate and

intervarsity sports and cultural events. Girls hostel is in pipe line. Sanction for the remedial courses, coaching for entry

in services, UGC NET for SC/ST/OBC/ minority students has been sanctioned by the UGC for the XI plan period.

6.3.2 College has very decentralized and all party participatory system of functioning. Generally most of the objectives

are decided in the meeting of the stake holders, therefore known to everyone. Later it is communicated to everyone

through a circular circulated among the staff members which is signed by everyone. Every body is involved in the

process of college development. At the beginning of the session teachers and non teaching staff members working in

various committees decide what the objective is and how it is going to be achieved. Final approval is taken from the

Principal. Every committee member does have deep understanding of how their work contributes to achieving the

overall plan objectives. They are encouraged to evaluate their work, make changes with due permission of the

principal. This increases their abilities At times Principal recognizes and rewards for their achievements.

Organizational structure of the college makes sure that everyone in the college is involved in the planning activities.

6-3-3 Forty one Committees are formed by the principal for proper functioning of the college during the session 2009-

10. A list of different committees is given in the category of Organizational Arrangements.

Meetings are held and the decisions taken regarding academic management, finance, infrastructure and examination

etc. Funds are generally provided by the state government. When the funds come the Principal calls the meeting and

give it to the department or for what it is allocated. It is mandatory that funds given for the purpose could not be

diverted for others at any situation. For research extension and linkages the research committee makes all the faculty

members ever of it. Examination committee is there for the fair conduct of the exam along with Principal and all the

staff members of the college.

One student from each class is elected as class representative along with a member of departmental

association. The student s association details are maintained by department in-charge in each department.

These student s representatives function as bridge between teachers and students for quality education.

These student s representatives help in organization of classes, use of ICT by the teachers etc. for quality

education and for extra-curricular activities like, quiz, extempore, debate, chart competition, etc. and

communication between students, teaching staff and Principal.

In each department, student associations are formed. These associations hold various extra-curricular

activities like extempore, debate, chart competition and poem writing etc. The students from the college

have given representation in various committees like magazine, sports and election etc. Students are thus,

a part of decision making in curricular and co-curricular activities. Details of the same are published in

college magazine annually.

A grievance redressal cell constituted of teaching staff is actively working in the college that solves the

grievances raised by students and staff. However, students are free and encouraged to communicate their
