It is a good college for students to gain more knowledge.

Placements: Placement facilities provided in our college were not good but campus interviews provided good jobs with high salary packages. Our college provided training for students to prepare for government exams. Many business-related companies visit our college to recruit students. Students have to choose the best company.

Infrastructure: The hostel was available and the quality of food served was worth the fee. I recommend students stay in nearby rental houses that charge Rs.6,000 per month and Rs.30,000 in advance.

Faculty: Teachers in our college were the best. Exams were scheduled well and conducted strictly on time. The exam fee was low compared to other colleges. It was an autonomous college.
