Annexure-iv (a)
1. Title of the Practice : Plantation.
Key words : Eco-friendly , environment , trees , atmosphere , strain , health , economics ,
climate , radiant energy , Green house effect , Global warming.
2. Goal :
The aim of this practice is to make the campus eco-friendly.
3. The Context :
Plantation means planting trees in large numbers. There are several benefits from
planting trees ranging from health to environmental impact, from economic to psychological
effects etc. Planting and maintaining trees helps lower energy costs, reduce pollution, improves
the surrounding with green ambience and also increases the value of property. As green is a
soothing colour, it helps to recover from strain quickly. Trees enhance the beauty of our
surrounding. To create a proper study atmosphere, this practice has been adopted by the
institution.
Trees are an important part of every community. They create a peaceful and
aesthetically pleasing environment. They increase the quality of life by bringing natural
elements and wildlife habitats into urban settings. We gather under the cool shade they
provide during outside activities with the students.
4. Objective of the Practice:
The college authorities have decided to adopt plantation as a regular practice when it
was found that students were unable to attend classes and examinations during the summer
days. In order to overcome this setback the college has started mega plantation programmes in
the college campus as well as in the nearby locality. This has improved air quality, conservation
of water and preservation of soil. During the process of photosynthesis, plants take in carbon
dioxide and give the oxygen that we breathe in. According to U.S Dept. Of Agriculture, “One
acre of forest absorbs six tons of carbon dioxide and gives four tons of oxygen .This is enough to
meet the annual needs of 18 people”. Trees and shrubs also filter air by removing dusts and
absorbing other pollutants like carbon manoxide,sulphur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide. Trees
control climate by moderating the effects of sun, rain and wind. Leaves absorb and filter radiant
energy of sun, keeping cool in summer. Trees also lower the air temperature and reduce the
heat intensity of the green house effects by maintaining low level of carbon dioxide. So every
year a large number of plants are planted and maintained by the college employees and
students.
The main reason we like trees is because they are both beautiful and majestic.
No two are alike, which is a characteristic feature of living organism. Different species display a
seemingly endless variety of shapes, forms, texture and vibrant colours. Even individual trees
vary in their appearance throughout the course of the year as the seasons change. The strength
,long life span and regal stature of trees give them a monument-like quality, Almost all of us
react to the presence of trees with a pleasant, relaxed and comfortable feeling. In fact this
college plants trees as living memorials of life changing events. Out of the various benefits
some of the other important benefits are saving of water, conservation of energy, reduction of
violence, promotion of unity, provision of wood and saving earth from earthquake. Trees help
to reduce global warming, carbon foot print and pollution and keep the environment clean
which creates a viable atmosphere for learning.
5. Evidence of Success :
The college is situated in a rural area with extreme climatic condition. During summer
days (March to May) earlier the temperature was very high ranging from 40o – 45o. But due to
this practice of mega plantation inside the campus it is now easier to conduct classes and
examinations in such an extreme temperature. The college is also able to provide water and
fresh air to students and staff members.
6. Problems encountered and Resources required :
Maintenance of this practice is very difficult. It requires both man power and financial
support. The college spends a huge amount towards maintenance cost. It also requires constant
attention till the full growth of the plants. Due to scarcity of man power in the college, it is
proving very expensive.
7. Notes :
Natural calamities such as Super Cyclones have often stood in the way of realisation of
the full potential of the practice. For example, Philine in 2012 and Hud Hud in 2013 uprooted
most of the trees that were raised over the past years. Still the college is trying to restore the
green cover to its earlier shape though it is proving quite expensive both in terms of money and
manpower. Still, the institution is committed to go ahead with this noble practice and give the
message “ SAVE TREE TO SAVE LIFE “.
Annexure-iv (b)
1. Title of the Practice:
Celebration of ‘College Foundation Day’ and ‘Birth Anniversaries of some great personalities of
India’.
Key words : National Youth Day , Gandhi Jayanti ( International Non-violence Day ) , Teachers’
Day , College Foundation Day and Children’s Day.
2. The Context that required the initiative of practice.
Our culture is best reflected through the tradition we follow while handing down our beliefs
and values to our posterity. This tradition echoes in the corridor of time when our college celebrates
the ‘Foundation Day’ every year on 12th July along with the alumni. We feel humble and grateful when
it reminds us the contribution and sacrifices made by our previous generation for the up-coming of our
college. With the same spirit we also commemorate and celebrate every year 2nd October, the birth
anniversary of our father of the nation; 5th September, the birth anniversary of Dr. Sarvapalli
Radhakrishnan, the first Vice-President of India as the ‘Teachers’ Day’; 12th January, the birth
anniversary of Swami Vivekananda as the ‘National Youth Day’; and 14th November, the birth
anniversary of country’s first Prime Minister and the chief architect of modern India, Pt. Jawaharlal
Nehru, as the ‘Children’s Day’.
3. Objective of the Practice:
Great men and great ideas belong to all peoples and to all centuries. Increasing recognition of
essential unity of mankind has brought with it an increasing awareness of the debt we owe to these
giants of the past who helped shape the civilization we live in. The objective of celebrating the birth
anniversaries of these great sons of India is to imbibe their thought and philosophies in the minds of
students. Students will be inspired by the life and teaching of these great icons and will be encouraged
to spread the message of peace, harmony and love among masses.
4. The Practice:
The college annual calendar mentions the dates of celebrations. The responsibilities to organize
these anniversaries are distributed among different forums. The convener along with his team
motivate the students to take part in various competitions like elocution, debate, recitation, painting
and slogan writing which reflect the messages of the great personalities. Those students who excel in
such events are awarded on the Annual Day function of the college. Eminent personalities, renowned
resource persons and illustrious social workers are also invited to address the students in these events.
5. Obstacles faced if any and strategies adopted to overcome them:
No success will be felt successful without being faced by challenges. The main challenge in
organizing these events is to organize them in limited time period without any disturbances to the
normal teaching schedule. Beside this, the teachers have to take extra care and responsibility to
encourage the students to take part in such events.
6. Impact of the Practice:
By celebrating the birth anniversaries of the great personalities, the students get highly
motivated and energized by their wisdom, virtues, and sacrifices. This gives them an opportunity to
realize that ‘nothing is impossible under the sun’ and men and women of wisdom and courage can
contribute a lot in building a society where value driven knowledge plays an important role in
improving the condition of the masses.
7. Resource Required:
In order to meet the expenses required to organize these events the Governing Body of the
college has made adequate resource allocations in its annual budget.

8. Title of the Practice : Plantation.
Key words : Eco-friendly , environment , trees , atmosphere , strain , health , economics ,
climate , radiant energy , Green house effect , Global warming.
9. Goal :
The aim of this practice is to make the campus eco-friendly.
10. The Context :
Plantation means planting trees in large numbers. There are several benefits from
planting trees ranging from health to environmental impact, from economic to psychological
effects etc. Planting and maintaining trees helps lower energy costs, reduce pollution, improves
the surrounding with green ambience and also increases the value of property. As green is a
soothing colour, it helps to recover from strain quickly. Trees enhance the beauty of our
surrounding. To create a proper study atmosphere, this practice has been adopted by the
institution.
Trees are an important part of every community. They create a peaceful and
aesthetically pleasing environment. They increase the quality of life by bringing natural
elements and wildlife habitats into urban settings. We gather under the cool shade they
provide during outside activities with the students.
11. Objective of the Practice:
The college authorities have decided to adopt plantation as a regular practice when it
was found that students were unable to attend classes and examinations during the summer
days. In order to overcome this setback the college has started mega plantation programmes in
the college campus as well as in the nearby locality. This has improved air quality, conservation
of water and preservation of soil. During the process of photosynthesis, plants take in carbon
dioxide and give the oxygen that we breathe in. According to U.S Dept. Of Agriculture, “One
acre of forest absorbs six tons of carbon dioxide and gives four tons of oxygen .This is enough to
meet the annual needs of 18 people”. Trees and shrubs also filter air by removing dusts and
absorbing other pollutants like carbon manoxide,sulphur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide. Trees
control climate by moderating the effects of sun, rain and wind. Leaves absorb and filter radiant
energy of sun, keeping cool in summer. Trees also lower the air temperature and reduce the
heat intensity of the green house effects by maintaining low level of carbon dioxide. So every
year a large number of plants are planted and maintained by the college employees and
students.
The main reason we like trees is because they are both beautiful and majestic.
No two are alike, which is a characteristic feature of living organism. Different species display a
seemingly endless variety of shapes, forms, texture and vibrant colours. Even individual trees
vary in their appearance throughout the course of the year as the seasons change. The strength
,long life span and regal stature of trees give them a monument-like quality, Almost all of us
react to the presence of trees with a pleasant, relaxed and comfortable feeling. In fact this
college plants trees as living memorials of life changing events. Out of the various benefits
some of the other important benefits are saving of water, conservation of energy, reduction of
violence, promotion of unity, provision of wood and saving earth from earthquake. Trees help
to reduce global warming, carbon foot print and pollution and keep the environment clean
which creates a viable atmosphere for learning.
12. Evidence of Success :
The college is situated in a rural area with extreme climatic condition. During summer
days (March to May) earlier the temperature was very high ranging from 40o – 45o. But due to
this practice of mega plantation inside the campus it is now easier to conduct classes and
examinations in such an extreme temperature. The college is also able to provide water and
fresh air to students and staff members.
13. Problems encountered and Resources required :
Maintenance of this practice is very difficult. It requires both man power and financial
support. The college spends a huge amount towards maintenance cost. It also requires constant
attention till the full growth of the plants. Due to scarcity of man power in the college, it is
proving very expensive.
14. Notes :
Natural calamities such as Super Cyclones have often stood in the way of realisation of
the full potential of the practice. For example, Philine in 2012 and Hud Hud in 2013 uprooted
most of the trees that were raised over the past years. Still the college is trying to restore the
green cover to its earlier shape though it is proving quite expensive both in terms of money and
manpower. Still, the institution is committed to go ahead with this noble practice and give the
message “ SAVE TREE TO SAVE LIFE “.
Annexure-iv (b)
8. Title of the Practice:
Celebration of ‘College Foundation Day’ and ‘Birth Anniversaries of some great personalities of
India’.
Key words : National Youth Day , Gandhi Jayanti ( International Non-violence Day ) , Teachers’
Day , College Foundation Day and Children’s Day.
9. The Context that required the initiative of practice.
Our culture is best reflected through the tradition we follow while handing down our beliefs
and values to our posterity. This tradition echoes in the corridor of time when our college celebrates
the ‘Foundation Day’ every year on 12th July along with the alumni. We feel humble and grateful when
it reminds us the contribution and sacrifices made by our previous generation for the up-coming of our
college. With the same spirit we also commemorate and celebrate every year 2nd October, the birth
anniversary of our father of the nation; 5th September, the birth anniversary of Dr. Sarvapalli
Radhakrishnan, the first Vice-President of India as the ‘Teachers’ Day’; 12th January, the birth
anniversary of Swami Vivekananda as the ‘National Youth Day’; and 14th November, the birth
anniversary of country’s first Prime Minister and the chief architect of modern India, Pt. Jawaharlal
Nehru, as the ‘Children’s Day’.
10. Objective of the Practice:
Great men and great ideas belong to all peoples and to all centuries. Increasing recognition of
essential unity of mankind has brought with it an increasing awareness of the debt we owe to these
giants of the past who helped shape the civilization we live in. The objective of celebrating the birth
anniversaries of these great sons of India is to imbibe their thought and philosophies in the minds of
students. Students will be inspired by the life and teaching of these great icons and will be encouraged
to spread the message of peace, harmony and love among masses.
11. The Practice:
The college annual calendar mentions the dates of celebrations. The responsibilities to organize
these anniversaries are distributed among different forums. The convener along with his team
motivate the students to take part in various competitions like elocution, debate, recitation, painting
and slogan writing which reflect the messages of the great personalities. Those students who excel in
such events are awarded on the Annual Day function of the college. Eminent personalities, renowned
resource persons and illustrious social workers are also invited to address the students in these events.
12. Obstacles faced if any and strategies adopted to overcome them:
No success will be felt successful without being faced by challenges. The main challenge in
organizing these events is to organize them in limited time period without any disturbances to the
normal teaching schedule. Beside this, the teachers have to take extra care and responsibility to
encourage the students to take part in such events.
13. Impact of the Practice:
By celebrating the birth anniversaries of the great personalities, the students get highly
motivated and energized by their wisdom, virtues, and sacrifices. This gives them an opportunity to
realize that ‘nothing is impossible under the sun’ and men and women of wisdom and courage can
contribute a lot in building a society where value driven knowledge plays an important role in
improving the condition of the masses.
14. Resource Required:
In order to meet the expenses required to organize these events the Governing Body of the
college has made adequate resource allocations in its annual budget.

15. Title of the Practice : Plantation.
Key words : Eco-friendly , environment , trees , atmosphere , strain , health , economics ,
climate , radiant energy , Green house effect , Global warming.
16. Goal :
The aim of this practice is to make the campus eco-friendly.
17. The Context :
Plantation means planting trees in large numbers. There are several benefits from
planting trees ranging from health to environmental impact, from economic to psychological
effects etc. Planting and maintaining trees helps lower energy costs, reduce pollution, improves
the surrounding with green ambience and also increases the value of property. As green is a
soothing colour, it helps to recover from strain quickly. Trees enhance the beauty of our
surrounding. To create a proper study atmosphere, this practice has been adopted by the
institution.
Trees are an important part of every community. They create a peaceful and
aesthetically pleasing environment. They increase the quality of life by bringing natural
elements and wildlife habitats into urban settings. We gather under the cool shade they
provide during outside activities with the students.
18. Objective of the Practice:
The college authorities have decided to adopt plantation as a regular practice when it
was found that students were unable to attend classes and examinations during the summer
days. In order to overcome this setback the college has started mega plantation programmes in
the college campus as well as in the nearby locality. This has improved air quality, conservation
of water and preservation of soil. During the process of photosynthesis, plants take in carbon
dioxide and give the oxygen that we breathe in. According to U.S Dept. Of Agriculture, “One
acre of forest absorbs six tons of carbon dioxide and gives four tons of oxygen .This is enough to
meet the annual needs of 18 people”. Trees and shrubs also filter air by removing dusts and
absorbing other pollutants like carbon manoxide,sulphur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide. Trees
control climate by moderating the effects of sun, rain and wind. Leaves absorb and filter radiant
energy of sun, keeping cool in summer. Trees also lower the air temperature and reduce the
heat intensity of the green house effects by maintaining low level of carbon dioxide. So every
year a large number of plants are planted and maintained by the college employees and
students.
The main reason we like trees is because they are both beautiful and majestic.
No two are alike, which is a characteristic feature of living organism. Different species display a
seemingly endless variety of shapes, forms, texture and vibrant colours. Even individual trees
vary in their appearance throughout the course of the year as the seasons change. The
strength, long life span and regal stature of trees give them a monument-like quality; almost all
of us react to the presence of trees with a pleasant, relaxed and comfortable feeling. In fact this
college plants trees as living memorials of life changing events. Out of the various benefits
some of the other important benefits are saving of water, conservation of energy, reduction of
violence, promotion of unity, provision of wood and saving earth from earthquake. Trees help
to reduce global warming, carbon foot print and pollution and keep the environment clean
which creates a viable atmosphere for learning.
19. Evidence of Success :
The college is situated in a rural area with extreme climatic condition. During summer
days (March to May) earlier the temperature was very high ranging from 40o – 45o. But due to
this practice of mega plantation inside the campus it is now easier to conduct classes and
examinations in such an extreme temperature. The college is also able to provide water and
fresh air to students and staff members.
20. Problems encountered and Resources required :
Maintenance of this practice is very difficult. It requires both man power and financial
support. The college spends a huge amount towards maintenance cost. It also requires constant
attention till the full growth of the plants. Due to scarcity of man power in the college, it is
proving very expensive.
21. Notes :
Natural calamities such as Super Cyclones have often stood in the way of realisation of
the full potential of the practice. For example, Philine in 2012 and Hud Hud in 2013 uprooted
most of the trees that were raised over the past years. Still the college is trying to restore the
green cover to its earlier shape though it is proving quite expensive both in terms of money and
manpower. Still, the institution is committed to go ahead with this noble practice and give the
message “SAVE TREE TO SAVE LIFE “.

15. Title of the Practice:
Celebration of ‘College Foundation Day’ and ‘Birth Anniversaries of some great personalities of
India’.
Key words : National Youth Day , Gandhi Jayanti ( International Non-violence Day ) , Teachers’
Day , College Foundation Day and Children’s Day.
16. The Context that required the initiative of practice.
Our culture is best reflected through the tradition we follow while handing down our beliefs
and values to our posterity. This tradition echoes in the corridor of time when our college celebrates
the ‘Foundation Day’ every year on 12th July along with the alumni. We feel humble and grateful when
it reminds us the contribution and sacrifices made by our previous generation for the up-coming of our
college. With the same spirit we also commemorate and celebrate every year 2nd October, the birth
anniversary of our father of the nation; 5th September, the birth anniversary of Dr. Sarvapalli
Radhakrishnan, the first Vice-President of India as the ‘Teachers’ Day’; 12th January, the birth
anniversary of Swami Vivekanand as the ‘National Youth Day’; and 14th November, the birth
anniversary of country’s first Prime Minister and the chief architect of modern India, Pnt. Jawaharlal
Nehru, as the ‘Children’s Day’.
17. Objective of the Practice:
Great men and great ideas belong to all peoples and to all centuries. Increasing recognition of
essential unity of mankind has brought with it an increasing awareness of the debt we owe to these
giants of the past who helped shape the civilization we live in. The objective of celebrating the birth
anniversaries of these great sons of India is to imbibe their thought and philosophies in the minds of
students. Students will be inspired by the life and teaching of these great icons and will be encouraged
to spread the message of peace, harmony and love among masses.
18. The Practice:
The college annual calendar mentions the dates of celebrations. The responsibilities to organize
these anniversaries are distributed among different forums. The convener along with his team
motivate the students to take part in various competitions like elocution, debate, recitation, painting
and slogan writing which reflect the messages of the great personalities. Those students who excel in
such events are awarded on the Annual Day function of the college. Eminent personalities, renowned
resource persons and illustrious social workers are also invited to address the students in these events.
19. Obstacles faced if any and strategies adopted to overcome them:
No success will be felt successful without being faced by challenges. The main challenge in
organizing these events is to organize them in limited time period without any disturbances to the
normal teaching schedule. Beside this, the teachers have to take extra care and responsibility to
encourage the students to take part in such events.
20. Impact of the Practice:
By celebrating the birth anniversaries of the great personalities, the students get highly
motivated and energized by their wisdom, virtues, and sacrifices. This gives them an opportunity to
realize that ‘nothing is impossible under the sun’ and men and women of wisdom and courage can
contribute a lot in building a society where value driven knowledge plays an important role in
improving the condition of the masses.
21. Resource Required:
In order to meet the expenses required to organize these events the Governing Body of the
college has made adequate resource allocations in its annual budget.
