The college is very awesome.
Placements: I don't know the exact percentage of students who are placed in a company but at least 150 students get placed under a company every year. The highest package that is offered in my course is around 22 LPA, and the average package is about 6-7 LPA. To be honest, I don't know the company's name, but they are kind of agrochemical companies and they generally belong to Haryana, Gujarat, Assam and Pune. In the government sector, generally people go for a forest officer and food inspector and in private, there are field administrative officers, and many posts are offered by the companies.
Infrastructure: There are several kinds of facilities offered in my course & infrastructure, as the infrastructure is very good. Classes are taken over a smart board and the lab practicals are also done by the professor so that we can resolve our queries and perform well in exams. In my college, there are also Wi-Fi facilities is also offered and there is a huge library where a variety of books is offered to us, which saves our money as expensive books are offered to us without any cost, which saves our money.
Faculty: The teachers are very helpful, qualified, and well knowledgeable, and their teaching quality is excellent as they make sure that each and every student's doubt is cleared so that he or she can perform well in exams. The teachers are very supportive of us; if you are a good student, then they can definitely help me. The course is curriculum relevant and myriad varieties of courses are offered in each and every semester, which makes it ready for industrial use, and it helps us to explore more as compared to other courses. If we talk about the exam, which is held in our college, the difficulty level of the exam is moderate; if you study well, then you can get a good mark easily, and around 50% is required for passing the subject for each and every subject. If you are below 50%, then you have just failed.
Other: Actually, I belong to the biology sector, so that's why I had to choose this agriculture course, as I am interested in plants and animals. Generally, I am interested in plants, like how the activities are done in a plant body, how they reproduce, how they just multiply and how the exchange of gases occurs. There are several things in which I am interested and know about these things so that's why I chose this course. There are various types of events and extracurricular activities organized in college, which is very helpful for the student and government scholarships are offered to the student, which provide students with financial relief. Various types of events are organized, which make sure that the socialization is also in progress.

All about Kamla Nehru, Sultanpur.
Placements: In LL.B., there are no such placements. I can't say about the highest, lowest, or average placement as there is no placement. Students are recurated by local advocates. Every student has to do an internship, which they can get by their own contact; you have to visit the door.
Infrastructure: The faculty is pretty good and has knowledge about subjects. The faculty will always be there for you in difficult situations. Infrastructure is also good. The college has a good lab but does not have Wi-Fi facilities, which they lack. The quality of the hostel is pretty good and easy to live in.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful, highly qualified, and knowledgeable. Their teaching quality is very good. There are many cases that help us to really focus on books and make students ready to enter the industry. The difficulty level is also good. I have six semesters in a year and am pretty good.
