Infrastructure: The Wi-Fi is great in the college. The labs are well-maintained and air-conditioned. However, they need to check every computer after every practical because some students disconnect the wire connections. It leads to the computers not working.

Faculty has improved over time, and it is a good place to both learn and enjoy.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure for my department was good. It had neat and clean working computers and newly renovated classrooms for my branch. We had a separate library building, which was very big and silent enough for studying. Talking about the hostel, the food quality was not good, and I recommended having food from outside.
