2.3.2 – Students mentoring system available in the institution? Give details. (maximum 500 words)
Student mentoring system is implemented in the college for the better interaction between students and
teachers. Information about the students of Undergraduate and Post graduate is collected through college office.A teacher is assigned a group of 25 to 30 students for mentoring them throughout the academic year. Initially theteacher takes a session of the assigned students and collects all the information like their hobbies and interests,aims, goals and future plans. Afterwards regular meetings from time to time keep the teacher updated about theprogress of students. Guidance is provided by the teacher as per the need of the student which helps them to
overcome the weakness and convert them into strengths. During mentoring the students, the teacher carries outcounseling on various aspects such as personal, financial, academic, psychological, career. Personal counseling
includes advice on basic medical and psychological issues. Students having serious psychological issues likeanxiety or depression problem are mentored and if needed directed to the Counseling cell. At times the students
have family problems for which the student may be counseled with family members. Majority of the studentscome from rural areas having modest backgrounds. A majority of the faculty members also have similar
backgrounds and therefore are very much familiar with the mental state of our college students. They are verysensitive to the problems of the students which they are facing in college life and help them to solve those
problems.

7.1.7 – Initiatives taken by the institution to make the campus eco-friendly (at least five)
1.Rainwater harvesting 2. Use of organic fertilizers 3. No vehicle day 4.Paperless work 5. Energy conservation
7.2 – Best Practices
7.2.1 – Describe at least two institutional best practices
Title of the Practice: Nirmal Wari Objectives of practice: 1. To imbibe socialsensitization and communal inclusion amongst students 2. To amalgamate NSS,student development, Ladies Association committees for unique and a greatsocial cause. 3. To conduct activities for all beneficiaries under fundedprograms from various agencies. 4. To inculcate the need of cleanliness inpublic events like wari. 5. To advocate no to open defecation. 6. To promote
green solutions for ecofriendly and sustainable wari. The context “Sant TukaramPalkhi Sohala” is an annual pilgrimage organized by Govt. of Maharashtra for 2,
50,000 devotees starting from Dehu to Pandharpur for 18 days as an ancienttradition carried since 800 years. The Palkhi reaches Baramati on 10th day withall facilities provided by the local municipal corporation authorities with
several NGOs and all institutions. The Warkaris comprise of literate,professionals, authorities and civic bodies. One day stay at Baramati causes alot of pollution in terms of open defecation, plastic waste, thermocol waste,paper waste and litter all around increasing environment stress. The PracticeBut during this stay in the past it created many problems of health and hygienein and around Baramati town. Many problems regarding water pollution, sewageand epidemics were faced by local people. This was the major disadvantage ofthe wari related to environmental problems. A large number of people come forthe wari every year. Previously there were no facilities for the people. No
healthy food, pure drinking water and safety toilets were available during thestay of wari in Baramati. The warkaries use to go for toilets in an open placesin the town previously. No one arranges anything for them. So our institutewanted to do something to ensure cleanliness during these processions. But
during this stay in the past it created many problems of health and hygiene inand around Baramati town. Many problems regarding water pollution, sewage andepidemic diseases were faced by local peoples in Baramati. This was the major
disadvantage of the wari related to environmental problems. Therefore ourinstitute has recruited 300 volunteers to do the cleaning program. These
volunteers work with local NGO ‘Seva Sangh Foundation’ which are providing 300mobile toilets for wari people. Our volunteers aware warkaries for theirhealth, hygiene and direct to promote them to use mobile toilets. Thevolunteers are working from the arrival of Palkhi at 11.00am up to the
departure of next day which takes about 36 hours duty. Our volunteers are alsoperforming dramas and street plays regarding issue of tobacco free and no
drugs. This activity will help to make the warkaris aware of the side effectsof such bad habits. This esteemed activity of institute extended for social
cause is highly appreciated by warkaries and Baramatikars. The studentsundertake this activity with zeal, enthusiasm and interest and manifest theirintellects through self scripts of street plays inaction. For this activity theinstitute provides all kinds of support. The NGO Seva Sangh Foundation processthese Human excreta by ecofriendly technology as valuable manure. Their use
should be promoted in order to replace some of the chemical fertilizers used inagriculture. Student Volunteers emphasize the prohibition of open defecation,littering in public places and encourage warkaris for using of toilets. Theyalso advocate the wari participants for avoiding use of single use plasticmaterials. We also distribute paper glasses, cups, biodegradable leaf buffetplates for environment protection and reduce pollution. These used plates andother waste are neatly collected and disposed off thorough proper gunny bags
and handed over to Municipal Corporation. Evidences 1. The activity hasreceived immense response from public, civic bodies and authorities of collegeand Municipal corporations. 2. The live telecasting of events like cleanlinessdrives, street play, exhibitions by media of local TV channels and news papers.3. Warkaris have huge appreciation for students for the care rendered upon them
in this activity. 4. Survey conducted for the spread of addictions, mobileliteracy was analyzed to advocate the public on benefits and harm involved.Problems: 1. The Mindset of warkaris takes time to be modulated 2. The supplyof resources to implement this activity from authorities 3. Water facility
sufficient for the conduct of these activities. 4. Spread of this messageshould be reaching each and every village. 5. Involvement of authorities withoptimism and support to this activity. Notes : N.S.S. of Savitri Bai Phule PuneUniversity takes cognizance of this activity and has declared as harit dindiand nirmal wari to encourage students for such innovative activity and to
inculcate the civic sense and social responsiveness. Title of the practice-Organic Farming: Objectives of practice: 1. Promotion of organic farming amongfarmers. 2. Public advocacy of bio inoculants. 3. To sensitize students for
social responsibility. 4. To reduce environmental pollution and introduce greensolutions. 5. To coordinate all departments through NSS for implementation. Thecontext Baramati tehsil is situated between 180 04’ to 180 04’ North latitudesand 74026’ to 740 69’ East longitudes and is located at 550 meters above meanssea level around the area of 1382 sq. km., with low rainfall zone, farmers are
totally dependent on the canal water and use of chemical fertilizers forcombating the biotic and abiotic stress. To overcome this problem the sciencedepartments have collectively resolved the issue by revisiting farming with
scientific interventions. The practice: College has provided 1430 liters of thebioinoculants and biopesticides in liquid formulation with its State-of- artfacility of bio inoculant production unit to farmers across 64 villages fromAhmednagar, Solapur and Pune district. The college is practicing the solid
waste management process of the 45 tons of canteen and kitchen waste of campusgenerated in the campus per annum which is processed for Vermicomposting whichis used for the beautification of the campus. The canteen waste and leaf littercollected from the roadside avenues is used for vermicomposting. There are 7plastic beds were installed at different localities in the college campus so
that leaf litter and other organic waste can be dumped at appropriate beds, sothat it can be used to manure for ornamental plants growing in the college
campus. To popularize the concept of organic farming by various simple means inthe farmers, the students are trained to make the different types of organicfertilizers such as Culture of Azotobacter, Rhizobium, Azospirilum and other
phosphate solubilizing bacteria certificate course was conducted in thecollege. College enrolled 25 students for certificate course on Organic Farmingaffiliated to Indira Gandhi National Open University.

quality of life.One day Workshop on bio-inoculants production was conducted on12th February, 2019 for farmers, students and faculty which was funded under
