Every possible effort is made to enhance the ability of the students to read, write and
communicate well.
Including this, the Road Safety education is also added to the subject of
environment education. The basic knowledge about Road Safety, Safety sign and law is
imparted to the students via this subject. The officers of the traffic department from time to
time manage to visit the college and guide the students regarding this subject.
In order to improve the academic skills of the students, emphasis is laid upon
the all round personality development of the students. The institute encourages students to
participate in the co-curricular activities, sports and cultural activities as well. The NCC unit
of the college is working for developing the potential of the students especially the
leadership qualities and encouraging the feelings of mutual co-operation and brotherhood.
The NSS unit of the college is also contributing to develop the qualities of
100
selfless service and a sense of duty towards the community and nation in the students. By
providing them a platform where they can interact with the students across the state and
nation the feeling of national integration and brotherhood is also induced in them.
From time to time, the college organizes extension lectures. The college NSS and NCC
units help the students to realize the dignity of cleanliness and hygiene.
The regular publication of the college magazine ‗Our Life‘ provides the opportunity to the
students to give expression to their creative skills.

7.3 Best Practices
As far as socially backward students are concerned, the college is providing
scholarships/stipends to SC/BC students provided by State Government. Similarly, minority
scholarships are provided to the students by the help of Indian Government. The college is
also providing monetary help in the form of books/stipends to the economically weaker
students and brilliant students sponsored by OSA, NGO, s and social activists.
The college undertakes a number of activities like organizing educational
tours/excursions co-curricular activities. The college encourages the students to participate
in youth festivals by awarding prizes to them in the annual prize distribution function of the
college. The provision of NCC, NSS and sports activities provide ample opportunities for
multidimensional growth of the personalities of the students. In addition to motivate the
students to give their level best in the academics, sports and cultural activities, the students
101
who score high positions in the university are given scholarships by the college from its own
sources . To promote social justice and good citizenship qualities among the students, the
college tries to induce a sense of discipline and responsibility among them by encouraging
them to stand for the collective cause of community by sensitizing them regarding the need
to preserve environment, nature, to obey traffic rules, to donate blood to help the
downtrodden and the economically weaker section of the society to encouraging them to
help the victims of natural calamities etc. The college strongly believes that these moral and
ethical values reach out to the community and further nation by travelling through the
students.
Stake Holder Relationship
After consulting the heads of the departments a certain policy is framed and
forwarded to the management by the head of the institution. That is most of the times
accepted by the management and the same is implemented.
The institution tries to involve local people, social activities, religious people
and political leaders to develop new innovative programs to create an overall ambience that
would be ideal for learning process. The key factors that attract students and stakeholders
are: the institution endeavors to work for the overall personality development of the students
by laying special emphasis upon moral and ethical values. The students are provided with
adequate knowledge and skills for becoming responsible citizen.
The college extends quality and value based education by providing equal
opportunities and access to all the students that further results in stakeholder satisfaction. In
addition to this the students are trained to acquire requisite potential to gain suitable
employment with a view to contribute towards the healthy growth of the society.
In addition to the academics the students are being provided with the extensive assistance to
excel in various fields like research curricular and co-curricular activities, personal as well
as spiritual development. There is a healthy interaction between all the stakeholders i.e. the
management, head of the institution, faulty, alumni, the members of old students association
and the present students.
The driving force that motivates us when we celebrate Gurpurabs, Nagar
Kirtans in our awareness causing campaign about drug addiction, social evils like female
feticide and dowry as well as when we organize seminars, special lectures, parent-teachers
meetings and the functions of old students association (OSA) remains social religious and
102
academic concerns of our social and moral values. The same type of concern is anticipated
from public in future, we expect that the public should come forward with their demands/
feedback, suggestions they want the institution to improve that would in turn help their
children to meet the future changes in getting better jobs.
The satisfaction of the students is enhanced by the percentage of marks and
their position in the university and when they get jobs in their desired fields. The same is
reflected in the meetings of OSA (Old Students Association).
The college staff visits the neighbouring educational institutions in groups
before the beginning of the academic session and makes them aware of the various facilities,
scholarships available to the students in the college. The students are made aware of the
different courses being run in the college. The college teachers give personal visit to the
intelligent but poor students are attracted by promising them various scholarships available.
The institution makes every effort to meet the objective of learning
successfully. Special classes are arranged for weak students so that they can do better in the
examinations. The provision of the tutorial lectures provides the students with an
opportunity to reflect their talent which is further channelized by making them participate in
various co-curricular and sports activities.
In addition to this, the institution focuses upon creating an ambience of
discipline and to meet the purpose, the college has connected the campus through CCTV
cameras that on the one hand helps to keep an eye upon the activities of students and on the
other create a feeling of self discipline in the students.

The future plans of Agriculture Department are to impart interest and
knowledge in this subject so that agriculture is practically taken as Agri-business. The
college is planning to set up mushroom cultivation and vermi-compost in future.
Agriculture Department
Agriculture has remained in headlines in all the ages after a long spell of its
backwardness and stagnation. It contributes to the national economy highly in terms of
production while it has opened new dimensions in other sectors of economy as well. The
current challenges and threats need a fresh look in the context of changed environment
especially with the emergence of world trade organizations.
The college has been imparting access to higher education to the weaker
sections of society with a mission of educational empowerment of predominating rural and
agrarian population. The college decided to introduce the Agriculture subject for B.A. and
B.Sc. students in 2011-12. The main purpose of selecting this subject was to teach the latest
technologies in the field of agriculture (the main occupation of the people of this area) so that
they can convert into Agri business.
In the first session, there were only five female students who opted for this
subject. In this second session we had 21 students (10 girls and 11 boys) and in the latest
session we have 30 students (9 girls and 21 boys)) many students wanted to opt the subject
but could not because of the limited number of seats.
To teach the subject Agriculture, there is one teacher for Botany one for
Zoology and one for Agriculture. Ms. Kanwaljit Kaur Sahota who a M.Sc., M.Phil in Botany
108
is a permanent teacher and the other two are on Ad-hoc basis. Mr. Maninder Mand M.Sc.
Agriculture and Mr. Sukhwinder Singh M.Sc. Zoology have worked on Ad-hoc basis.
The college has a set lab of Agriculture with attached experiment field where
students do their practical work. For detailed knowledge they are made to visit Horticulture,
Forest and Department Nurseries, Apiary, Fish Farming etc.
The college has a well equipped library and there are 250 books related to the
various fields of Agriculture. Besides it there are magazines like Changi Kheti and
progressive Farming which provide current knowledge to the teachers and students.
The main method of teaching is lecture method, with the help of blackboard,
charts and models. The students are asked to prepare the assignments on various topics and
work on practical exercise book is also given. The students are taken to the fields, gardens;
knowledge is also imparted about fruit trees, apiary, mushroom cultivation and vermin
compost at the site only.
The teachers also update their knowledge by attending orientation, refresher
courses, seminars and by visiting Kisan Melas at PAU Ludhiana and its regional centers.
The future plans of Agriculture Department are to impart interest and
knowledge in this subject so that agriculture is practically taken as Agri business. The
college is planning to set up mushroom cultivation and vermi compost in future.
In the session 2014-15 nearly 20 students of B.Sc opted Agriculture as an
elective subject. University team sanctioned 10 more seats to the department. Agriculture
fields are developed to impart practical knowledge of the subject.
In this session the department has got the permission to start PG Diploma in
Applied Agriculture with 30 seats to flourish the subject and to skill the students to their root
and demand of the time.

Environment and Road Safety Department
The voice about the conservation of environment is being raised now by
western countries is not new to the India as they were aware about this issue in ancient times
the reference of which is reported in Rigveda. The fast deteriorating condition of our
environment due to ever increasing human need and greed has compelled the world to take
proper measure in conservation of nature so as to save mankind from gloomy future. With the
aim of creating awareness among the youth the subject is being taught at graduate and
undergraduate level in the institution.
Ms. Kanwaljeet Kaur Sahota is teaching this subject since her joining in 1998
in this institution. She is M.Sc Botany. Other teachers serving in the department are Mr.
Maninder Mand, M.Sc. Agriculture and Mr. Sukhwinder Singh M.Sc Zoology.
The students are from Punjab only. The students have to opt this subject in the
first year of their degree course (B.Sc, BCA, B.Com and B.A.). If somehow a student does
not appear or qualify in the first year he can avail a chance in second and third year also but
the degree is awarded only if he/she has cleared the subject.
Every year the students of all the streams i.e. Science, Commerce, Computer
Science and Arts appear for this exam. Science, commerce and computer Science students
mostly clear the subject in first attempt whereas arts students many times appear for 3rd
time
to clear the subject. The number of girls out of number as compared to boys in all the
sessions to qualify this subject was large.
Environment education has a mission and it aims at creating a society of
motivated citizens committed to conservation, preservation and protection of environment
and striving towards a life in perfect harmony with nature. In this regards, the NSS unit of the
college plays a vital role whereby every year one to ten days camp is organized in a village
151
adopted where NSS Volunteers work and motivate the villagers towards environment
cleanliness theoretically as well as practically.
The subject is taught by taking the help of books and the method of teaching is
mainly lecture system but audio-visual aids are also used at times. The college always
promotes and plans the availability of some well known environmentalist who could impart
extra knowledge and information regarding this subject. Beside it the need and importance of
healthy environment is always expressed in poems on various occasions/ functions being
organized in the college. The message of healthy environment is displayed through posters
and essay writing competitions also.
Eco club has been founded in this college whose aim is to educate people
about creating a non polluting eco friendly environment by planting more trees, caring of
about alternative methods of agriculture, organic farming, use of green manure, methods to
reduce pollution in agriculture and industry. The farmers in particular are motivated to adopt
organic farming to the save the universe from the harmful effects of pesticides.
Seminars are also organized from time to time in order to create awareness
amongst the students about the alarming effects of polluting environment. The department is
always keen to equip itself with modern facilities so as to compete with the fast growing
world.
As per reports gathered by Traffic department the number of people who die
every year, those who die in road accidents out number all the other categories. Taking this
into serious account and to make the students aware of road safety education and the other
categories, Road Safety education is also added to the subject of environment education. The
basic knowledge about road safety, safety signs and laws is imparted to the students via this
subject. The officers related to traffic control visit the institution and guide the students about
