Institutional Best Practices

1. Pankh – Institutional Scholarship Scheme for Economically Weaker Section

•             Goals

The institution takes pride in empowering young girls of remote villages, border villages by providing them access to higher education. This goal is achieved by marathon efforts of motivating young girls, their families, villagers, village panchayats and elderly renowned personalities to come out of their feudal mindset and realize the importance of girl child education. It is the mission of the institution to bring girls of every strata of the society into the arena of higher education.

•             Context

A number of Scholarship schemes have been initiated by State and Central Governments for students belonging to be SC / ST and other deprived category students but the girls of economically weaker section are still deprived of such government schemes.

•             Practice

Institution has made arrangements with number of Donors, Alumni, NGOs etc. which contribute funds for giving scholarships to those girl students which belong to economically weaker section of the society. Every year hundreds of girls are benefited through this contributory fund. The beneficiaries are selected by a committee on means cum merit basis. The major donors for this purpose are Shashi Ahuja Memorial Trust, Krishna Sen Memorial Trust, Dr. S P Duggal Merit Scholarship, Nagpal’s Merit Scholarhsip, Mrs. Kukkar (Alumni), Sita Ram Jindal Trust, Nishkam Seva Society etc. Apart from these donors institution also contributes through Student Aid Fund.

•             Evidence of Success

Following Table indicates the success achieved during the last three years in under the Pankh Scheme

No. of students benefited through Pankh Scheme  -          316 (201617)       342 (201718)       292 (201819)

•             Problems Encountered and Resources required

Though institution has managed to attract number of donors for the said scheme but still we find it difficult to distribute the funds to large number of applicants under the scheme. There is dire need to manage more funds / resources for the purpose.

 2. To avail Transport facility

•             Goal:

The main goal of the institution is to cater to the needs of the girl students belonging to rural, border and backward areas and provide them quality and value based education. Taking into consideration this aspect, the institution has designed a network of transport facility to be made available to each and every student of the neighboring and faroff villages. It is the utmost duty of the institution to provide security and better atmosphere to the girl students. Staff member too avail of this facility. Special concessions are given to such students who are meritorious but not economically very sound.

•             Context:

The institution attracts students not only from the nearby and far off villages to receive education but also from the nearby cities as well due to the availability of courses in Honours in English, Punjabi and Commerce and PG in English, Punjabi, Commerce and Economics. Otherwise students of the concerned cities were left with no option but to move to big cities or state capital. Such students face a lot of problems waiting for the local buses, overcrowding at peak hours and not very safe environment for the girl students. Hence, the institution has made this facility available to the students with its reliable and accountable staff in the larger interests of the students.

•             The Practice:

Buses and jeeps are maintained properly. Behaviour of the conductor and driver is regularly watched and they are accountable to the Principal of the institution. Any problem faced by the students while commuting is immediately addressed and redressed. Initially the number of vehicles was 1. At present 1 bus, 1 mini bus 10 vans and 14 jeeps are hired by utilizing the services of jeep drivers belonging to particular villages from where a large number of students come to receive education.

•             Evidence of Success:

Initially, the college started with one bus to bring students. Increasing strength and demand the number of vehicles has increased to a big number which in itself is an evidence of the success of the practice followed by the institution. In the near future, the number of vehicles would be increased on the demand of the students.

•             Problems encountered and resources required:

Due to paucity of funds the institution is not in a position to purchase all the vehicles to meet the requirements and needs of the students. But the institution hires the vehicles and most important vehicle drivers belong to those villages from where our students come. Infact, parents of students feel more secure sending their wards with these drivers. However, problems do crop up in connection with the maintenance of the vehicles, but these are solved immediately and at the earliest. We are committed to provide transport to our students to the nearest point of their home on no profit no loss basis. All the drivers are strictly instructed to abide by the traffic and road safety norms to provide safe journey to the students
