Good infrastructure and helpful crowd.

Infrastructure: Hostel LAN is actually a headache. Otherwise the overall infrastructure is good like the central library and departments are actually nice except our Chemistry department. It's still under construction for the last 5 years. Food is completely veg. No non-vegetarian food to be served. Sports and games are average as the cricket ground is not well developed but a new turf is there. Otherwise tennis, badminton, volleyball, and basketball are major sports being played by people regularly.

This college works very well and is useful for students.

Infrastructure: When we talk about facilities, classrooms do not have AC, but all labs and offices have AC. There is also a big 3-floor library with central AC and Wi-Fi. I am a day scholar, so I do not know much about the hostel facilities, but they are also good and very helpful for students. A new canteen is now available in the college. All students are very excited about it.

Good facilities, but average placement and facilities.

Infrastructure: The hostel facility is average only. Like in the first year, you get in time and after that, there is campus time of 10:30 PM, which I personally find very restricted, and there is also food delivery not allowed till the hostel. You have to go to the main gate to collect your food delivery.

Satisfying placement with good infrastructure.

Infrastructure: All general facilities are available in our campus such as Wi-Fi, library, labs, and all are well maintained and perform satisfactorily to help a student grow in their field. Talking about hostel infrastructure, it lags in some facilities. There is no common room for study and gaming instruments depend on hostel, in some hostels there is a playing area and in some hostels there is none. The mess is well maintained, but you can't expect home-like food.
