Anti-Harassment Cell
In accordance with the guidelines set forth by the UGC and the directives of the Supreme Court, the college has instituted an Anti-Harassment Committee, dedicated to fostering a safe and inclusive environment for our students. This Cell plays a vital role in assisting faculty and students in implementing preventive measures against gender discrimination and sexual harassment. To further ensure the well-being of women within our college community, a specialized cell for the prevention of sexual harassment has been established. This cell is committed to addressing any concerns raised by women students, particularly those related to incidents of harassment, and it guarantees prompt and appropriate actions to address these concerns. Female students, faculty, and staff are encouraged to reach out to this Cell in cases of harassment or related issues.
