It is a good college, with good placements and infrastructure.
Placements: 95% of students got placed in my course. The highest package offered is around 25-30 LPA, and the lowest package is around 20,000-30,000 per month. I don't know about the top recruiting companies. 98% of students got internships, but I don't know about companies.
Infrastructure: The hostel has all the facilities like Wi-Fi. Labs, medical facilities, etc., are available in our college. The quality of hostel facilities is very good. In my opinion, good quality food is available in mess and canteen. Medical facilities, sports and games are good.
Faculty: All the teachers are very helpful, and all the teachers are well-qualified. All the teachers are very knowledgeable. This is course curriculum-relevant, and it makes the students industry-ready. Semester exams are not much difficult. 33% is the passing percentage.
Other: I chose this course because I know this is very helpful for my life.

Dissatisfied with the ill commencement of the classes.
Placements: BA graduates don't get placed anywhere and have to do majors or any other professional courses to get a job. Though, a few ex-students of my course have got admissions in the reputed universities including Harvard University. Talking about the other courses, the public policy students got to do the internship in Lokayukta and RTI. Mostly, the postgraduate student gets the internship under the reputed company or the people.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure in the old campus is of times of the British rule. The library is well-maintained. We have a lot of cultural and sports fest, where the students can show their talents. The new campus is good when talking about the infrastructure. Every department has a seminar hall too.
Faculty: The faculty members are helpful and vibrant. The philosophy department has the great teachers including Prashant sir and professor Rakesh Chandra. The course curriculum is same as the syllabus for UPSC exam and is helpful. Though on the old campus, the classes do not commence regularly. Sanskriti is the annual, cultural, and sports fest. There is the annual sports meet every year.
