The infrastructure of the college is very good. It provides all kinds of facilities for the students to complete their education with the minimum of trouble. But due to some crooked workers or professors, the funds provided by ICAR could not reach the students. The librarians do not issue books to students to study for a period of time. There are 100 students in a batch. The hostel facility is provided only for 20 boys and 34 girls. The college does not have any sports teachers. ICAR provides Rs. 8,000 to 9,000 per student for education tours, but the students do not get this money. This college system runs only on their past reputation, and it ruins the future of several students. The college does not have a well-managed playground for students. Equipment and apparatus for experiments are in very bad condition, and chemicals have expired. There is a CCTV camera in every class for security purposes, but it is in non-working condition.
