Infrastructure is not good.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful, well-qualified, and experienced. Teaching quality is good. The course curriculum is relevant for aspirants in government exams, civil services, and SSC exams. It does not make students industry-ready but prepares them for government exams. Semester exams are of average difficulty, and almost 90% of students pass the exams.

Yes I am dissatisfied with the college.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful if you are regular usually students study just for the sake of exams, not seriously and most of the teachers focus on the quick covering of the syllabus In the end students have to study on their own. Stone hardly managed to pass due to their carelessness.
