Karjan: Our Tehsil

Karjan is a sub district of Vadodara. Its neighboring sub districts are Padra, Sinor and Dabhoi of Vadodoara district and Bharuch and Amod, the sub districts of Bharuch. Its capital town Karjan is on the main line of Western Railway i.e. it is on one of the most busy railway track – Mumbai to Ahmedabad. It is at the equal distance of about 40 km from Bharuch and Vadodara. It is on the National Highway No.8 a six lane Express Highway. Our nearest airport is Vadodara.

This area is known as “Kanam Pradesh” and the main crops of this area are cotton, sugarcane and arher (tuvar). It is a trading centre. It is rich with food grains as well as flora and fauna. Rivers like Dhadhar and Narmada are the boons to this tehsil. Karjan is famous for ‘Ponk’- green grains of juvar. Tourists travelling by road in motor cars cannot go without stopping here to relish this very special food item of this area.

Previously, Karjan was a small village but the rail and road connectivity has helped this town to flourish. Karjan is a comfortable place so people like to reside here and commute to their distant service and business places. Western Railway line divides Karjan town in two parts i.e. Juna Bazar – East of Karjan railway station and Nava Bazar –West of Karjan railway station. Its population is approximately 30,000. Karjan is mostly known as Miyagam-Karjan. Western railway has adopted this name because village Miyagam is very old village and donated land for the railway in the British reign. Karjan was a part of ‘Gayakvadi Rajwada’ of old Baroda state.

Karjan is a business center and more than hundred villages are depended on it. Karjan is a centre of Cotton Co-Operative Societies- a registered group of farmers of Karjan sub district. More over Karjan has six private ginning factories and a sugar factory - a venture of farmers of Vadodara District on co-operative basis. Karjan has a big Marketing yard- a group venture of farmers and merchants of Karjan sub district on co-operative basis. It has scheduled banks and also co-operative banks like Karjan Nagrik Sahakari Bank and Friends co-operative society. These institutes are of great help to our college. We are proud to state that Karjan sub district and surrounding locality love this college like their own child.

Karjan town is a multi religious place. Everybody lives here with brotherhood, love and respect. It is a place of communal harmony. There is no untoward incident which may damage the prestige of this area.

Karjan is in the centre of four universities viz. The M S University of Baroda, Veer Narmad South Gujarat University, Surat, Sumandip University, Pipaliya, Agricultural University, Baroda. It also has Malini Kishor Homeopathic Hospital and Education complex at Miyagam.

The holy blessings of Saint Premdasji Godadiya Bapu, Rang Avdhoot Maharaj of Nareshvar, Late Nirat Maharaj and his successors Harjivandasji Maharaj, Late Baburam Maharaj and Raturam Maharaj and above all her holiness Umiya Mataji of village Umaj are showering blessing constantly on this sub district. Karjan sub district cannot forget Late Puneet Maharaj who lived in Punit Ashram at Motikoral of this Tehsil.

Nearby holy places of human faith are Nareshwar, Motikoral, Chandod, Kayavarohan, Dethan, Umaj, and Sumeru Navkar Tirth - Miyagam Sankheshvar Tirth at village Anastu and Umiya Mata Temple at village Umaj.

Karjan town has given one member to Legislative Assembly and one minister to ‘Brihad Mumbai’ state. They were Late Dr. C K Patel and Late Shah Chunilal Purshottamdas. Late Chunilal P Shah was known as ‘Chhote Sardar’ of Karjan taluka. He was a chairman of Baroda State Praja Mandal and Minister in old Baroda State. After independence, he offered his valuable services to the constitution committee of India which was headed by Dr. Baba Saheb Ambedkar and as a Member of Parliament of India. Freedom fighter Late Gandhi Ambalal of village Choranda had given enough name and fame to this sub district in the history of freedom movement in India. He was an active Gandhian of his time. Karjan had given one president to Vadodara Jilla Panchayat, Vadodara. He was Late Muljibhai N. Bhatt. He was also a famous Gujarat High Court advocate. Late Gordhanbhai B Patel of this sub district was a freedom fighter, eminent social worker and a trained pilot of air craft at Karanchi airport. As a director he had served both the Gujarat State Road Transport and the Gujarat State Forest Development Corporation.

Presently, Mr. Bipinchandra R Patel is a pride taking personality because he is a vice president of Local National Productivity Council, Delhi. Mr. Satishbhai Patel is an MLA of this constituency and his native is village Nishadiya of this sub district. He is also a chairman of Vadodara Sugar Mill and Marketing yard, Karjan. Mr. Mansukhbhai Vasava, an MP belongs to our constituency.

Before the existence of Karjan Taluka Kelavani Mandal [KTKM] the New Era English School had been functioning in this sub district. Later KTKM came into existence with an aim to educate the youth and the community of this sub district. New Era school was renamed as Shah N B Sarvajanik High School. It has teachers’ residential quarters and had hostel for students in its own school campus. With a view to extend the academic development to the rural community of this sub district, two high schools were started at villages named Bodka and Miyagam. Now these two schools are managed by local management.

This Mandal (KTKM) is providing education right from KG to UG and also for technical courses in ITI. Along with Shah N B S high school and Smt. D C Chavda girls school, there are seven high schools in Karjan town and 16 high schools in Karjan sub district. Karjan has one ITC, one ITI and one Homeopathic medical college, Miyagam.

Thus Karjan is rich in production of cotton and men of fame. It is a fast developing town and educational centre. It is well connected by rail, road and air. It is an oasis of Baroda sub district.

Smt. H. C. Patel (Kandari) Arts and Commerce College,

A Recapitulation

Karjan is surrounded by Sinor in the East, Amod in the West, Baroda in the North and Bharuch in the South. Earlier the people had to Endeavour hard to get admission for higher studies for their wards. There was no Commerce college between Baroda and Surat. Only after the strong recommendations of political and social leaders, few were able to get admission in the M S University of Baroda. It was also not financially affordable for the locals of this area to send their wards to a distant place like Villach Vidhyanagar, Ahemedabad or Surat. Secondly parents of girl students were hesitant in sending them to the college in other cities. As a result of odd circumstances and unavoidable monitory expenses people of this area were avoiding higher education for their wards.

On one side new horizons were opening for higher education and on the other side rural youth was lacking the scope for the higher education.

It was well understood by local leaders and academicians that there is no scope for growth and prosperity of self and the community without education. More over they had love for their own people, they realized the hunger for higher education of this area and felt the need of starting the college. Well wishing educationists and leaders of various fields determined to open a college for future generation and especially for girls. Under the valuable guidance of Late Chimanbhai Patel, Ex CM of Gujarat State, Karjan town was gifted with a college in the month of June, 1964. It has been affiliated to the Gujarat University, Ahemedabad.

It is said that there is a woman behind every successful man. Smt. Harshaben Chhaganbhai Patel of Kandari village had been an education and child loving lady. She inspired her husband Mr. Chhaganbhai K. Patel to leave behind good name by offering the best to the community. As a result of sincere efforts of the Mandal and with the inspiration of his wife Mr. Chhaganbhai K. Patel offered the most valuable donation of Rs. 1 lakh with a desire to give the name of Smt. Harshaben to the college. Thus, this college is named as Smt. H. C. Patel (Kandari) Arts and Commerce College, Miyagam Karjan. Dr. Chinubhai K. Patel was the foundation stone of Karjan Taluka Kelavani Mandal and its institutions. He and his colleagues canvassed for the college. Kshatriyas of Karjan town offered land for the college as a charity. Karjan Cotton Co-Operative Purchase and Sales Society and farmers offered best to run this college. We are proud to state that every citizen of Karjan taluka may it be a farmer or a business man has contributed a lot for this college.

With an ad hoc affiliation, the college started flourishing. It was started with 120 students. The college had no building so the students had to sit in the building of Shah N B S High school, Karjan. Principal Shri S.M. Nagamiya headed the new born college. He had


11

graduated in English from Bombay University and Cambridge University, England. He had taken his M.A. degree from Bombay University. He had led the college for 9 years. He had given the best of his talent to this college. It is noteworthy that he was the native of village Segva of Karjan taluka. The commerce faculty of this college had attracted the students of Bharuch, Ankleshwar and even of Kosamba town in those days.

The college has a graduate and post graduate departments in Hindi, UG in Gujarati and Economics and subsidiary subjects like Sanskrit, Psychology and History at the undergraduate level. In commerce, Advance Accountancy is the main subject. This department is a recognised PG department. It is a matter of pride on the part of the college that it has two Ph.D guides in Hindi and Economics for students who wish to study further as research scholars. The college has a computer laboratory and Multimedia Hall which is a kind of blessing to our students. The college has a large and spacious library which fulfils the needs of the faculties, students and research scholars. The college has one full company in NCC since its inception. More over the college has a full unit of NSS since the year 1977. Their vital activities are helping the youth of this college in bringing out their latent potential and qualities.

Karjan Taluka Kelavani Mandal manages this college. There are nine faculties including two part time and two management appointee faculties. Other than this there is a librarian and four administrative staff and four category IV management appointee members.

The students as well as the staff members have brought many accolades for the college at the state and national level in various activities like NCC, NSS, youth activities and research work along with the academic as well as social work. The staff members and students have been representing the college at the university in its senate and academic bodies time to time.

As a responsible and accountable institute, the college is very positively contributing in various social, academic and local causes as and when it is called for.

The college believes in discipline and quality education. The backbone of this college is its disciplined students and dedicated staff. The unity of the two speaks positively through the annual results and the respect that the college commands in the society.

Karjan Taluka Kelavani Mandal : President’s Communique

It is a matter of pride on my side to admit that among seven academic institutes of our Management, Smt. H.C. Patel (Kandari) Arts and Commerce College, Miyagam Karjan is one of the outstanding institution. On the occasion when this institute is proceeding towards the NAAC reaccreditation, in a glimpse, it reminds me the history of development and achievements of the college. This college was established in the month of June, 1964 and then onward it went on achieving the good name.

Karjan Taluka Kelavani Mandal has many social achievements. One alumnus of this college has been a Mahant of “Nirant Sampradaya” at village Dethan. This college has contributed many advocates, administrators, social workers, senate member at the M.S University of Baroda and a Member of cotton Advisory Board, Ministry of Textile Government of India and a Vice President of All India Local Productivity Council, New Delhi, Bank officials, a business Manager of MP & film star Late Sunil Dutt and his son Mr. Sanjay Dutt, vice President of Baroda District Panchayat, Baroda, one business tycoon, many jawans in the Indian Army and Police force. On the academic front two alumni are principals in High schools. Many are lecturers in college, teachers in various primary, secondary and Higher Secondary Schools. One alumnus, the head master in primary school has been awarded with the best BRC coordinator at the State level in under “Sarvashiksha Abhiyan” and is engaged in ADEPTS of UNICEF.

Presently, this college has four core departments viz. Hindi, Gujarati and Economics in the Faculty of Arts and Commerce and Accountancy in the Faculty of Commerce. Among these departments, Hindi and Accountancy are recognised as post graduate departments. We have also one compulsory and three core elective departments.i.i. It is a matter of pride on the part of the college that it has two Ph.D guides in Hindi and Economics. As an academic institute it has produced fifteen Ph.D, and eight students have been doing research work for Ph.D from the Gujarat University, Ahemedabad and Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Open University, Ahmedabad.

As a host, this college has organized one UGC sponsored workshop and two seminars. Thus, this college has a history of too many achievements. The faculty members are academically competent and regularly update themselves by attending seminars, conferences and workshops. They have been presenting research papers at the state and National level seminars and workshops.

Discipline of the students and dedication of the faculty members is the asset of Smt. H C Patel (Kandari) Arts and Commerce College. It gives me a great sense of satisfaction to say that we are working hard to fulfil the mission of Karjan Taluka Kelavani Mandal that is “empowerment of individual at personal, social and national level and to develop


13

responsible citizens for the nation building through quality programmes.” And Smt. H C Patel (Kandari) Arts and Commerce College is creatively and constructively contributing towards it.

Executive Summary

Our approach is learned centric. Our aspiration is to reach the diverse and heterogeneous populace. Our ambition is to pursue excellence. When the Mandal (Management) came into existence, there were only few persons who were literate in this rural area. They wanted to bring awareness in the illiterate mass so with the aim of making available basic and high school education for the common people; they established the Karjan Taluka Kelvani Mandal. In the time span of fifteen years since its establishment the Mandal has achieved its aim. In 1964 it has set the goal of motivating students for higher education. Again the result was the same. In this time span of 50 years, we were able to achieve the aim of making our students able to take any challenge in this globalized world. If looked at the seven criterions of the assessment on each criterion the college scores positive. The foresightedness of the KTKM can be well understood. At present we are having 04 UG and 02 PG courses (Temporarily discontinued) and Ph.D. in Hindi and Economics.

The students are representing the college at the state and national level through NCC, NSS, sports and cultural activities. The faculty members are not only qualified but they are quality conscious also. Nearly 50% of them are research conscious and actively presenting their research papers at the state and national level.

The alumnus of the college includes college lecturers, principals, teachers, advocates, MLA, Palika president and executives in different private concerns.

The college has shown its capacity by organizing one workshop on Translation in four languages (Hindi, English, Gujarati and Sanskrit) and one on CBCS with the sponsorship of UGC. It has also organized one state level seminar in the subject of Gujarati with the sponsoredship of Gujarat Sahitya Academy, Ahmedabad and Thirteen seminars/workshops for our students.

The ICT awareness among the faculty and students is upward; the quality consciousness is the driving force. Students are selected, groomed and monitored so that they succeed in their exams as well as in their life.

Accountability and responsibility towards the community and country is the driving force of all efforts the college puts in its academic, NCC, NSS, sports, cultural and research activities.

To summarize the transparency of academic transactions is used to translate the vision and mission of our college in to a reality. This is reflected in:-

a) More than 95% students from rural background are generally admitted.


28

b) Qualified teaching faculties with M.Phil, Ph.D degrees, national research papers and substantial publications are dedicating their skills and expertise.

c) Two of our faculty members are guiding students in their research work for Ph.D. in Hindi and Economics.

Cadets who have passed “C” certificate exams in the last five years are 75 and cadets who have attended various National NCC camps are 50.

e) The NSS unit of the college is very active and efficient. It is carrying out activities not only scheduled by the university but it is also organizing the different awareness programmes.

f) In sports the representation at the cluster and district level is being made by the students regularly.

g) Faculty has served in different capacities such as resource persons, consultancy and extension activities.

1.3.5 Citing a few examples enumerate on the extent of use of the feedback from stakeholders in enriching the curriculum?

We obtain feedback on curriculum from students in form of questionnaires given to them in a fixed format. Often we have general discussion in the class on curriculum. We also obtain feedback on some particular topic on curriculum through face to face conversation with the students. We also take help of alumni and parents on curriculum through discussions and meetings. We also get feedback from our academic peers whenever they come to our institution for academic propose or when our staff members have the chance to visit any other institutions, they discuss with colleagues over there on curriculum and many times if need arises we have a telephonic talk with them over the matter.

We ponder on the feedback, discuss with our colleagues and if required with the subject expert with the aim of continuous improvement. These outcomes or suggestions are represented through proper channels in the meeting of BOS and to the university. Sometimes we communicate directly through telephonic conversations if it is the call of the day.

1.3.6 How does the institution monitor and evaluate the quality of its enrichment programmes?

We have established college IQAC in order to monitor and evaluate the quality of our enrichment programmes.

The IQAC performs the following work for quality assurance. In the beginning of the academic year the staff meeting is held with the principal of the college in which the curricular, co-curricular and extracurricular activities to be done in the current year are discussed and their month wise schedule is carried out. The tentative dates of the activities are also decided. Even the dates of the first and second college internal examinations are also decided and announced to the teachers and students of the college. To carry out the different activities in a systematic way the IQAC has formed different committees in the institution which include the teaching and non teaching members of the institution.

CRITERION II: TEACHING - LEARNING AND EVALUATION

2.1 Student Enrollment and Profile

2.1.1 How does the college ensure publicity and transparency in the admission process?

Our college has been imparting higher education in Karjan Taluka since the year 1964. Our college is well-known and having good reputation in public. So there is no need to give advertisement for admission in the news papers or any other media.

Prospectus and direct contacts in the schools of Karjan and surrounding talukas also help us to ensure publicity of our institution.

We have an Admission Committee which performs a role of counseling committee during the admission process. After considering students’ pervious academic record, this committee assesses the aptitude of the students and accordingly the admission is suggested in various principal subjects.

2.1.2 Explain in detail the criteria adopted and process of admission (Ex. (i) merit (ii) common admission test conducted by state agencies and national agencies (iii) combination of merit and entrance test or merit, entrance test and interview (iv) any other) to various programmes of the Institution.

The process of admission is conducted by the college admission committee comprising of faculties and administrative staff under the chairmanship of the Principal.

We give admission to all students who pass 12th class with minimum 36 % marks so there is no need to put the list on the notice board. While giving admission we follow the university and Govt. norms and regulations.

2.1.3 Give the minimum and maximum percentage of marks for admission at entry level for each of the programmes offered by the college and provide a comparison with other colleges of the affiliating university within the city/district.

2.1.4 Is there a mechanism in the institution to review the admission process and student profiles annually? If ‘yes’ what is the outcome of such effort and how has it contributed to the improvement of the process?

Yes. An admission committee is formed for this purpose by the college which monitors the entire admission process and review the process after obtaining the feedback from the students. On the basis of feedbacks, reservation policy of the government and valuable suggestions of committee members, a modified admission process is prepared and implemented. All the admissions are given according to the rules and regulations of our affiliating university and Govt. of Gujarat.

In the new CBCS pattern the student gets ATKT up to semester V and is eligible to get admission in semester VI.

Concerned department and the college IQAC review students’ profiles at the end of each semester. After evaluating the results and the classroom participation the slow and the advanced learners have been found out. They are put together and through team work strategically they are made to work out to improve the overall result of the individual student and of the institution too.

Advanced learners are encouraged by awarding prices and merit certificates. They are also offered special facilities for self study in the library and constantly guided and inspired to maintain their standard. The slow learners are always under the constant and able guidance of our teachers. They try to push them up by encouraging and guiding them so that the gap between the two is abolished.

2.2.2 Does the institution assess the students’ needs in terms of knowledge and skills before the commencement of the programme? If ‘yes’, give details on the process.

Generally the admission committee suggests the subject preference after considering the aptitude and the marks of the students obtained at the higher secondary level. So except in the subject of compulsory English, we don’t need to bridge knowledge gap of the incoming students.

2.2.3 What are the strategies adopted by the institution to bridge the knowledge gap of the enrolled students (Bridge/Remedial/ Add-on/Enrichment Courses, etc.) to enable them to cope with the programme of their choice?

We use bridge course in English in the first year BA and B.Com at the beginning of the year which contains all the primary elements of English Grammar. With the help of this, they can cope up with their past knowledge of English at the secondary level.

Apart from that the institution is always ready to provide enough knowledge to the first year students. The students are made familiar with semester system, CBCS and other essential initiatives of the Government of Gujarat. The students are also informed with the facilities available in the college.

Expert lectures are also organized. As majority of the students are from rural background, special attention is paid in organizing programmes on personality development, computer skills, legal literacy, health and hygiene, extracurricular activities etc. to sensitize them on related issues. Faculty members are always available to motivate and guide students.

2.2.4 How does the college sensitize its staff and students on issues such as gender, inclusion, environment etc.?

We organize the following awareness programmes related to them.

Academic performance of such students is observed by the teachers during their class room teaching. Apart from that under entry in service programme and Books of Remedial classes and guidance are provided for competitive examinations by Career and Counseling Committee.

Our administrative wing keeps records of these types of students and guides them to get govt. scholarships through various scholarship schemes in order to restrict their drop out ratio.

2.3 Teaching-Learning Process

2.3.1 How does the college plan and organize the teaching, learning and evaluation schedules? (Academic calendar, teaching plan, evaluation blue print, etc.)

2.4 Teacher Quality

2.4.1 Provide the following details and elaborate on the strategies adopted by the college in planning and management (recruitment and retention) of its human resource (qualified and competent teachers) to meet the changing requirements of the curriculum

Teachers are recruited according to the guidelines of UGC and Gujarat University Ahemedabad, whenever vacancy arises. The teaching positions are created on the quantum of teaching period workload. Initially no objection certificate is obtained from commissioner of higher education, Gandhinagar. Then the advertisement is given in the local and two state level newspapers. Sufficient time is given for application to the probable candidates. Applications are invited through registered post and the date for the interview is fixed in consultation with the commissioner of higher education and expert committee of the university. The interview committee is formed on the date of interview, selection procedure is duly completed and name of the selected candidate is put on the notice board. Then the name of the candidate selected for the post is formally approved by the commissioner of higher education,


59

Gandhinagar and the Gujarat University Ahemedabad. Then the formal appointment order is given to the selected candidate.

Now the Govt. of Gujarat has also started recruiting teachers of their own on the bases of merit under central recruitment process where there is no role of the management and the institution. Presently we cannot easily get NOC for vacancies against the retired teaching posts in the institution from the state govt.

They are felicitated in the meetings with the staff and the management for their achievements. 2.4.6 Has the institution introduced evaluation of teachers by the students and external Peers? If yes, how is the evaluation used for improving the quality of the teaching-learning process?

The institution applies two way approaches to evaluate the performance of the teachers –students’ feedback and self appraisal of the teachers. The feedback


64

analysis is carried out and the teachers are instructed to look in to their positives and negatives. The occasional ‘checks’ and visits to the students and classrooms enable the head of the departments as well as the principal to improve on the situations.

Teachers also maintain “Teachers’ Diary” which gives us the detail performance of the faculty in the areas of classroom teaching, research and publications, class wise subject results, workload, contribution in college committees and extension activities.

Feedbacks and Teachers’ Diary are analysed and discussed in the IQAC meetings. On the bases of the outcomes of such discussion, new strategies are evolved and concerned teacher is counseled.

2.5 Evaluation Process and Reforms

2.5.1 How does the institution ensure that the stakeholders of the institution especially students and faculty are aware of the evaluation processes?

Evaluation of the students’ learning is transparent, continues and preplanned. Being an affiliated college, we have to follow the semester examination method. The university examination follows the continues evaluation format. There is one internal examination and one semester final (External) examination at the end of each semester. The internal evaluation carries the weightage of 30 marks for the students. It is mandatory to pass in the college internal examination. Then and then he/she is eligible to appear for the semester final university examination of 70 marks.

All the above evaluation information is communicated to the students in the first week of the academic year. Marking scheme and units of the syllabus are also explained to the students. The tentative dates of all the examinations are announced to the staff at the inaugural staff meeting. The proposed schedules of the internal test along with their valuation patterns are communicated to the students by the teachers in their introductory lectures. Students are also well informed about the programmes of internal test a month ago. These methods are also announced at the regular intervals through the personal announcement system.

2.5.2 What are the major evaluation reforms of the university that the institution has adopted and what are the reforms initiated by the institution on its own?

Since the academic year 2011-12, Gujarat University, Ahmedabad initiated new CBCS-Semester System at the under graduate and post graduate programme. Under which we have


65

� One College Internal Examination of the weightage of 30 marks at the end of Semester

� One Semester Final University Examination of 70 Marks.

The 30 marks of the internal evaluation are divided into 15+15 among which the average of the sum total of the internal test is counted for 15 marks. The remaining 15 marks are awarded for the

i) Regularity in the Classroom ii) Assignments and Classroom Interactions iii) Quiz Test/Seminar/Project Work

To improve the teaching, learning, apart from the university prescribed one internal test; our college departments conduct ‘Quiz Tests’ at the end of each semester. The record of this is considered for awarding the five marks as the fraction of 30 marks for the internal exams.

2.5.3 How does the institution ensure effective implementation of the evaluation reforms of the university and those initiated by the institution on its own?

Regarding the evaluation reforms, there is an examination committee which comprises of the principal and the two senior faculties of the institution. This committee takes care of the evaluation aspects like moderation, reassessment, gracing, unfair means etc. The evaluation process is completely transparent. Not only the external invigilators are used but also even the surprise checking during the examinations is carried out. The students doing unfair means are punished which controls unfair means during examinations. Due to this we do not have any unfair means case in the university examinations in the last four years

2.5.4 Provide details on the formative and summative assessment approaches adopted to measure student achievement. Cite a few examples which have positively impacted the system.

Formative Assessment

The goal of formative assessment is to monitor students learning, to provide on-going feedback that can be used by IQAC to improve the teaching of faculties and students’ learning. Formative Assessment of the students is done on the following parameters :

� Writing Assignments � Students’ Seminars and Presentations � Class Interactions and Group Discussions � Project work


66

� Written Examination � Participation in Co Curricular and Extra Curricular Activities. � Noteworthy Participation in Sports, NSS and NCC � Extension Activities � Participation in Inter Collegiate Competitions. � Overall Attendance and Discipline during the Semester � Expression of Creativity on Wall Magazine.

Summative Assessment

The goal of summative assessment is to evaluate student learning at the end of an instructional unit by comparing it against some standard or benchmark. Summative assessments are often high stakes, which means that they have a high point value. Summative Assessment takes place at the end of the academic session which is conducted by the college during the Model Test at the end of the semester. Even if some students don’t perform well or clear the eligibility condition, then an extra chance is given to the student for his/her evaluation. This process helps the students to gain confidence and to achieve good results. This is how the institution uses the formative and summative evaluation approach to measure the students' performance. The university conducts a summative evaluation at the end of each semester through the following.

� Retest at the College Level

� Written Exams � Seminars/Quiz/ Project Work � Assignments

2.5.5 Detail on the significant improvements made in ensuring rigor and transparency in the internal assessment during the last four years and weightages assigned for the overall development of students (weightage for behavioral aspects, independent learning, communication skills etc.

Since the academic year 2011-12, we follow new CBCS semester system at the under graduate programme. Under which we take

� One College Internal Examination of 30 marks at the end of Semester. � One Semester Final University Examination of 70 Marks.

The 30 marks of the internal evaluation are divided into 15+15 among which the average of the sum total of the internal test is counted for 15 marks. The remaining 15 marks are awarded for the

i) Regularity in the Classroom ii) Assignments and Classroom Interactions iii) Quiz Test/Seminar/Project Work iv) Participation in Co and Extra Curricular Activities.


67

v) Expression of Creativity on Wall Magazine.

The results are displayed on the general notice board where the students can compare their marks with other students also. If they have any problem they can approach the concerned teacher, Head of the Dept. or the Principal, if they desire, we explain their weaknesses after reassessing their answer books. The answer books for the internal tests are preserved for one year till the university results are declared. We also display final internal marks on the notice board before we submit them to the university. The students are informed to the Examination Committee for any queries in the final internal marks.

2.5.6 What are the graduates attributes specified by the college/ affiliating university? How does the college ensure the attainment of these by the students?

We always try to develop overall personality of our students by making them academically sound and motivating them to do something different in the global scenario.

We always try to inculcate in them moral values and life skills through the organization of different co and extracurricular activities. Almost every year we organize study tours through which they can take practical experience.

2.5.7 What are the mechanisms for redressal of grievances with reference to evaluation both at the college and University level?

Mechanism for redressal of the grievances regarding evaluation work is as per the rules and regulations of the Gujarat University, Ahmedabad. Students can go for rechecking or reassessment of his/her answer books. For their grievances, they can approach the concerned teacher, Head of the Dept., Examination Committee or the College Principal.

At the university level, Students can go for the option of rechecking or reassessment of his/her answer books. In this kind of grievances the students have to apply within fifteen days after the announcement of university results and they have to pay the fees decided by the university.

2.6. Student performance and Learning Outcomes

2.6.1 Does the college have clearly stated learning outcomes? If ‘yes’ give details on how the students and staff are made aware of these?

Yes, the college has clearly stated the learning outcomes of the students. Every year in the beginning of academic year “Know Your College Programme” is organized by the institution. In this programme, through PPT students are made aware of the


68

learning objectives. Even the vision, mission and the goals of the college also indicate the learning out comes. We have displayed them on the board and highlighted it by keeping it in the main area of the college where the students, teachers, staff and other stakeholders can see it daily. We have also stated it on the very first page of our college prospectus.

Every year we organize Prize Distribution Ceremony in which we throw light on the learning outcomes and performance of the college in various curricular, co-curricular and extracurricular activities. Thus the dignitaries and students are made aware of the learning objectives and outcome of the college.

2.6.2 Enumerate on how the institution monitors and communicates the progress and performance of students through the duration of the course/ programme? Provide an analysis of the students results/achievements (Programme/ course wise for last four years) and explain the differences if any and patterns of achievement across the programmes / courses offered.

The institution monitors and communicates the progress and performance of students by evaluating the internal test papers and announcement of results within the stipulated time limit. We discuss in the class the strengths and weaknesses of students that we find during the evaluation process.

Our teachers also guide them about the ways of writing answers. After evaluating the results of college internal tests and we counsel the slow learners and they are made to work out to improve the overall result of the individuals and of the institution by remedial coaching.

2.6.3 How are the teaching, learning and assessment strategies of the institution structured to facilitate the achievement of the intended learning outcomes?

Teaching, learning and assessment strategies are structured by College IQAC at the beginning of each academic year in which different college committees have been formed and the task to make planned schedule of different activities are given to the faculty members and the departments.

� Time Table Committee � Examination Committee � Counseling and Career Guidance Committee � Udisha Culb � Constant Observation and Guidance to Slow Learners. � Continuous Internal Assessment � Assignments/ Seminars/Project work � Quiz Test � Development of Life Skills through Saptdhara Activities. � Motivation and Felicitation

Thus IQAC plays crucial role in the teaching, learning and assessment strategies of the institution to facilitate the achievement of the intended learning courses. The college aims to help students to attain their potential by providing supportive vibrant and challenging learning environment. The faculty is always working in making this learning environment student centric.


71

We have SAPTDHARA programmes under KCG guidance of the government of Gujarat which aim to develop students, intellectual, social, creative, moral, cultural and physical abilities. Apart from that the extension activities of N.S.S and NCC help in creating awareness on social issues and problems. The students can connect themselves with the society through these extension activities.

College Career Guidance and Counseling Committee and UDISHA Club also organize programmes on career guidance and the overall development of the students. We also send and provide information of our passed students of last year to the state UDISHA Cell and the different placement agencies. We also organize Cooperation Training, Entrepreneurship Seminar and Workshop on Investment Awareness for our students. Our college departments give project work to our students through which we try to develop innovation and research attitude among our students.

2.6.5 How does the institution collect and analyze data on student performance and learning outcomes and use it for planning and overcoming barriers of learning?

After the declaration of the results of in each semester, the concerned teacher note down the results of his papers in his “Teachers’ Diary” then it is evaluated by the departments. We also prepare class wise results. Then college IQAC analyses the performance of the students. We also evaluate students’ performance in college internal test, assignment, seminars, project work, class room interaction etc. If their performance is found unsatisfactory, we try to find out the reasons and then we discuss them in the classroom and give remedial guidance to get more satisfactory result. Concerned faculty is also instructed to provide personal guidance and counseling.

2.6.6 How does the institution monitor and ensure the achievement of learning outcomes?

We keep records of the progress and performance of our students every year. College departments and the concerned faculties monitor and ensure the achievements of learning outcomes. After getting the results, the student-teacher interaction is close. This close relationship becomes the mode of counseling regarding examination, future planning of vocational and placement openings.


72

At the end of each academic year, we organize “Prize Distribution Ceremony in which we felicitate learning achievements of our students awarding them medals, certificates and cash prices. We give 20 medals, 20 certificates and Cash Prizes of Rs.10703/- as an appreciation for the achievement of learning outcomes.

5.3.3 How does the college seek and use data and feedback from its graduates and employers, to improve the performance and quality of the institutional provisions?

We take feedback on overall activities and their experiences in the campus from our graduate students at the end of the year. We analyze the feedbacks and have discussion in the staff meeting and try to fulfill the lacking and suggestions found out from them. To seek the data and feedback from our employers and other stakeholders, we have developed two ways. We have a Visitors’ Book and a file of “Your Words for Us” in which they freely give their suggestions to improve and develop the institution.

We also take feedback on “Curriculum and Faculty Teaching” in the Class. Students can also use “Suggestion Box” for his/her feedback. Even they are free to meet the college principal directly for their grievances. Thus all these have helped us in identifying our weaknesses and improving satisfaction level of our students.

5.3.4 How does the college involve and encourage students to publish materials like catalogues, wall magazines, college magazine, and other material? List the publications/ materials brought out by the students during the previous four academic sessions.

Each and every teacher encourages and motivates the students for creative writing and to bring good articles from magazines and newspapers. The college runs its own “Wall Magazine” named “ANKUR” for students and by students. In this the students express their ideas both in words and pictures. This helps them lot for better


126

creativity and to understand literature deeply. We not only encourage them in the creative field but also we make them exercise their minds in selecting good articles from newspapers, magazines, journals and other sources and bring them to put it on the wall magazine which proves to be a good part of learning. All the displayed materials on the wall magazine throughout the year are collected by the wall magazine committee and at the end of the year it makes them compile and arrange for its handmade publication.

5.3.5 Does the college have a Student Council or any similar body? Give details on its selection, constitution, activities and funding.

The Council works under the convenership of a senior faculty of “Student Union and Welfare Committee.” The selection of students is on merit of their marks in the previous examination. The Council helps in organization of different activities of the institution throughout the year. They also help us to solve students’ grievances. Necessary fund required for the functions and programmes is borne by the institution.

They also provide funds and support for the progress of the institution.

� Former Faculty: They are informed and invited in all major events of the institution. We also consider their advice and suggestions and feedback for the fulfillment of our objectives.

Any other relevant information regarding Student Support and Progression which the college would like to include.

All the departmental activities are organized and anchored by the students which provide them ample opportunities to develop leadership qualities and other personality traits. We have each and every student insured under “Shahid Vir Kinariwala Juth Vima Yogna” against any accident or accidental death. We help orphan students through generating donation. We also help “Open Category Students” by giving them merit scholarship. Every year we get donation from Lions Clubs of Baroda for the “Thalasemmia Testing” and Blood Check Up of first year students.

The college finance committee prepares the financial budget every year and sends it to the management. The college finance committee includes the principal, senior faculty, head clerk and the accountant and it is responsible for the collection of fees from the students and deposits it in the various heads of accounts. So far as purchases are concerned, a committee determines the method of purchasing either by quotation or by tender as per the type of item to be purchased. It keeps accounts up to date and prepares audit reports at the end of each academic year. It carries out its auditing at three levels.

i) The college Principal ii) The management

iii) The designated Chartered Accountant.

6.4.2 What are the institutional mechanisms for internal and external audit? When was the last audit done and what are the major audit objections? Provide the details on compliance.

Our financial audit is carried out by the internal and external auditor at the end of each academic year. The last audit was done in June, 2014. There is no objection taken by the auditors. Annexure : 05

6.4.3 What are the major sources of institutional receipts/funding and how is the deficit managed? Provide audited income and expenditure statement of academic and administrative activities of the previous four years and the reserve fund/corpus available with Institutions, if any.

Various resources of funds of our institution are as under :


141

� Maintenance Grant from Government � Salary Grant from Government � UGC Financial Assistance � Fees collected from students under various heads. � Management � Alumni and Parent Teacher Association. � NGOs

6.4.4 Give details on the efforts made by the institution in securing additional funding and the utilization of the same (if any).

6.5 Internal Quality Assurance System (IQAS)

6.5.1 Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC)

a. Has the institution established an Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC)? If ‘yes’, what is the institutional policy with regard to quality assurance and how has it contributed in institutionalizing the quality assurance processes?

Yes. We have established IQAC in the year 2005-2006. It functions for quality assurance as we mentioned in Question No. 1.3.6.

b. How many decisions of the IQAC have been approved by the management / authorities for implementation and how many of them were actually implemented?

Our Management has accepted all the decisions of College IQAC as we mentioned them in Question No. 4.1.3 and 6.2.7. The principal has been given all the authority to take decisions including financial matters. Thus our management is fully democratic.

c. Does the IQAC have external members on its committee? If so, mention any significant contribution made by them.

The IQAC has three external members in it. They are :

� Secretary, Karjan Taluka Kelvani mandal. � Secretary, Parent Association. � Shri Jashubhai Parmar, Teacher and Alumni Member.

They always give us valuable suggestions, motivation and show readiness for their cooperation.

d. How do students and alumni contribute to the effective functioning of the IQAC?


142

The IQAC has one student and one alumni member in it. We consider their suggestions and feedback for quality improvement. We also consider suggestions of student council regarding the performance of our institution. The students very enthusiastically support and participate in the programmes organized by IQAC.

e. How does the IQAC communicate and engage staff from different constituents of the institution?

The basic structure of IQAC is decentralized through formation of different committees. Here the management, the principal and the other stakeholders including staff plan the activities, organize them and at the end of the academic year also analyse them in their meetings, prepare policies which can be complementary to vision, mission and objectives of the institution. The whole staff is involved in each and every co-curricular and extra-curricular activity of the institution as one unit and thus engages with different constituents of the institution.

6.5.2 Does the institution have an integrated framework for Quality assurance of the academic and administrative activities? If ‘yes’, give details on its operationalisation.

There is a link between the academic and administrative activities held by the college staff. Support service and allotment of proper financial necessities are arranged by the college administrative staff. They also help by preparing documents for activities and make the announcements and notices for students. They help the academic activities by preparing financial budget, allotment of grant and salary from state govt. workload, arrange for faculties by demanding NOC from Govt. or Management, record of internal evaluation, and arrangements of final examinations. Thus they keep the whole schedule of the institution intact through constant correspondence with the management, university and the government which is necessary for quality assurance. In fact they are the backbone of the institution.

6.5.3 Does the institution provide training to its staff for effective Implementation of the Quality assurance procedures? If ‘yes’, give details enumerating its impact.

Before the implementation of CBCS Semester programme at the UG Level, We had organised UGC Sponsored Symposium in which our staff got intensive training of CBCS system. We send our staff in KCG programmes of Competence building and research projects and also in seminars which help them for quality assurance procedures. We discuss quality assurance procedures adopted in our institution in the IQAC meetings, take faculty feedback for effective implementation of quality assurance procedures and share informal experiences obtained through actual work.


143

6.5.4 Does the institution undertake Academic Audit or other external review of the academic provisions? If ‘yes’, how are the outcomes used to improve the institutional activities?

A team of Knowledge Consortium of Gujarat (KCG) an initiative of Govt. of Gujarat had visited our institution for two times under “Chalo College” Abhiyan under which they undertook inspection of the activities organized under “Saptdhara Programmes” These activities are meant for the holistic development of college students. For conducting these activities KCG gives us grant of Rs.60,000/-per year. Every year we have to submit the activity report to the KCG.

6.5.5 How is the internal quality assurance mechanisms aligned with the requirements of the relevant external quality assurance agencies/regulatory authorities?

Our internal quality assurance mechanisms are aligned with the following external quality assurance agencies or regulatory authorities.

� NAAC � Gujarat University, Ahmedabad. � Department of Higher Education, Gujarat � Knowledge Consortium of Gujarat (KCG) University Grants Commissions.

6.5.6 What institutional mechanisms are in place to continuously review the teaching learning process? Give details of its structure, methodologies of operations and outcome?

Continuous review of the teaching learning process is carried out by the following Methods :

� Observation of Teaching Learning Process in the classroom by Head of the Departments, IQAC and College principal.

� Proper distribution of workload � Proper implementation of Time table. � Conduct of regular classes and attendance of students � Organization of Students’ seminars and Co curricular activities. � Suggestions and faculty feedback from students � Examinations and Evaluation � Review of results � Development of Infrastructure and ICT facilities � Teachers’ Diary and Self Appraisal

6.5.7 How does the institution communicate its quality assurance policies, mechanisms and outcomes to the various internal and external stakeholders?

Criteria VII: Innovations and Best Practices

7.1 Environment Consciousness

7.1.1 Does the Institute conduct a Green Audit of its campus and facilities?

Our campus is located two kilometers away from Karjan town and having land of 33 Acres. The whole campus is free from pollution and having natural air and green environment all around. We have given certain area of our campus to the forest department of the town which has covered it with wire boundary and planted trees as reserve plantation. We provide water facility for it. We do not take any charge for it. We also do tree plantation every year. Thus in this way we support green house audit of our campus.

7.1.2 What are the initiatives taken by the college to make the campus eco-friendly?

We do tree plantation every year. Moreover to make the students more eco Friendly and environment savvy, we offer a subject on “Environmental Studies” in the second semester B.A and B.Com Programme as compulsory subject.

Energy Conservation

We use less electricity as our college timing is noon timing and we have well ventilated rooms.

Use of Renewable Energy

We have not introduced any specific system for it.

Water Harvesting

We have a very big campus having 33 acres of land. We have made pits on the both sides of the road to log the water for harvesting. Moreover the process of natural water harvesting takes place automatically in our campus as we have water logging problem in our campus because on one side we have National Highway, on the other side we have Narrow Gauge Railway and on the third side we have Water canal for irrigation.

Check Dam Construction

There is no need to construct Check dam in the campus.

Efforts for Carbon Neutrality

We have given certain area of our campus to the forest department of the town which has covered it with wire boundary and planted trees for carbon neutrality.

Plantation


146

Tree plantation by the forest department and by us.

Hazardous Waste Management

7.2 Innovations

7.2.1 Give details of innovations introduced during the last four years which have created a positive impact on the functioning of the college.

During the last four years we have introduced the following innovations which have created a positive impact on the functioning of the college.

� Students’ Seminars � Paper Presentation � Writing Assignments � Project Based Teaching � Use of ICT � Subject Quiz for MCQ � BISAG Lectures � Expert Lectures on Life Skills and Career Guidance � Introduction of Interdisciplinary subjects � Saptdhara Activities for Students’ Holistic Development � Study Tours. � Thalasemmia Awareness and Testing Camp � Medical and Blood Group Check up camp � Traffic Awareness Programmes. � Various Awareness Programmes by NSS in Adopted Village.

7.3 Best Practices

7.3.1 Elaborate on any two best practices in the given format at page no. 98, which have contributed to the achievement of the Institutional Objectives and/or contributed to the Quality improvement of the core activities of the college.


147

Best Practice : 01

1. Title of the Practice

“SAPTADHARA ACTIVITIES”

2. Goal

� Comprehensive development of the students through various activities. � Generate spirit of inquiry, adventure and competition among the students. � To aspire and strive for excellence. � To involve and unite students and staff in co curricular and extracurricular

activities of their choice and interest. � To create a confluence of activities so that the flow of activities continues

unabated and functions as medium to channelize other streams and activities.

3. The Context

The management, principal IQAC along with staff members have decided to implement SAPTADHARA - Seven Streams activities in order to encourage students to involve and participate in activities of their own interest.

4. The Practice

These activities are divided into seven streams so it is known as SAPTDHARA. Students have to opt for at least one of the DHARA according to their interest. Each DHARA is coordinated by a team of two staff members and two student representatives. These DHARAS – Streams are :

i) Gyan Dhara ii) Sarjanatmak Abhivyakti Dhara

iii) Kala-Kaushalya Dhara Committee iv) Natya Dhara v) Geet-Sangeet Nratya Dhara

vi) Vyayam, Yog And Khelkud Dhara

vii) Samudayik Seva Dhara

5. Evidence of Success

The practice has not only initiated students towards activities of their interest but has also increased initiative, participation, organization of activities, level of inquiry, adventure, competition, unity and team spirit among students, increased confidence in rural students, broadened their understanding, improved their academic results, and documented their interests which can be used to measure any change in the attitude of rural students over a period of time.

Students have started participating in inter college, zone and inter zone events. They have won recognition both for themselves and the college. This earns credit for the institution outside the campus. It becomes significant when we consider the socio-


148

economic and educational background of the students involved in the activities. This practice has helped students and teachers to work together and decrease the psychological barriers between them. This has also resulted in minimizing discipline problems in the campus as their union becomes very strong. This has also improved overall confidence and academic performance of the students.

6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required

The first and foremost challenge is to convince students that these activities are part of their education and shaping their personality. The second challenge is to segregate students according to their interest. The third challenge is to organise simultaneous activities and competitions without disturbing the academic time table. It is also a challenge to motivate faculty members to coordinate these activities along with their academic responsibility and research interests. This practice gained success through the involvement of students and the patience and perseverance of teachers.

Resources required are dedicated and self motivated head and staff of the institute, appreciation and felicitation from management and trusting students. Allocation of monetary budget is also required.

The college has procured instruments like Tablas, Harmonium, Dholak, Drums, sound system, digital photo and video cameras. The college also takes help of honorary professional services to groom the students. Multimedia Hall and Shed on Open air stage was made. Classrooms are also places for different forms of learning during these activities. NGO members, professionals and faculty members work as resource persons and judges. Students are also involved in the management and conduct of these activities.

7. Notes (Optional)

It is a matter of great pleasure and satisfaction when change becomes perceptible in students’ attitude towards oneself and life as a whole. It can only be achieved through constant endeavour dedicated and selfless teamwork.

Best Practice : 02

1. Title of the Practice :

“ Teachers’ Diary”

2. Goal :

� Faculty Planning of curricular and co-curricular activities for every academic year.

� Comprehensive development of the faculty members. � Self Appraisal. � Record keeping of faculty participation in Institutional Activities. � SWOT Analysis.

3. The Context

The management, the principal and the IQAC including the staff members have decided to prepare a diary for record keeping in the context of the above goals and for self appraisal of faculty members.

4. The Practice

We have developed “Teacher’s Diary” which is issued to him at the beginning of each academic year after the commencement of IQAC meeting with the staff. This is one of our best practices because it gives his/her insight in to a particular teacher’s policies, practices, programmes and performance. The teacher is expected to frame the academic and co-curricular activities of the year and then plan them month wise. The diary is a planer of the teacher as well as a prescription of his/her performance on the campus and of the campus.

The diary includes the following points :

� Personal information of the faculty � Department and personal Time Table � Allotted Papers and Topics � Academic planner � University and College Calendar � College Activities � Summary of Results � Appointments in College Committees � Details of Faculty Development � Details of Publications � Details of Extension Activities and Consultancy

5. Evidence of Success

The practice has not only initiated faculty members towards planning of their academic and co curricular activities of their subject but has also increased their


150

participation in faculty development programmes, broadened their understanding, improve their subject knowledge, research interest, results and documentation. This practice gives an insight to the faculty for “self Appraisal” which helps him/her for his/her own improvement and is finally beneficial for the quality improvement and sustenance of an institution. This also shows the faculty his/her own strength, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. This helps the faculty for advance and better planning for the next academic year.

6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required

The first and foremost challenge is to convince the faculties to prepare this diary for “Self Appraisal” because it becomes an authentic document for his/her personal performance in the particular academic year. The second challenge is to send faculty in seminars, workshops, symposiums or any professional development programme without disturbing the academic time table. Arrangement of better ICT facility for faculty support is the third challenge for the institution. Increase in faculty development participation is also observed by the institution.

Additional fund is required for printing and binding “Teachers’ Diary” every year. Faculty support is also required to prepare them up to date every year. Additional efforts of other faculties are also required to engage faculty classes when he/she goes outside under faculty development programme. Appreciation and felicitation from principal and management for better performance and allocation of monetary budget are also required.

7. Notes (Optional)

It increases faculty development awareness, participation, fellowship and interpersonal relationship among faculty members of other institutions and consultancy while facing problems regarding subject curriculum or co curricular activities.

35. SWOC Analysis of the Department and Future Plans

Strength: • Faculty members of our department are qualified. • Enough feeding of students in the department. • Regular attendance of students in the class. • Almost similar ratio of girl students in the department. • Counseling of students for their career advancement and for their future

opportunities. • Active participation of faculty members and the students in the co-curricular and

extracurricular activities.

Weakness • Majority students have less proficiency in Sanskrit due to the optional subject at the

School level. • The department does not have the freedom to form its own curriculum. • Poor socio-economic and academic background of the students due to the rural area. • Research caliber of students at the degree level is very low. • Less reference books are available in the ‘Regional Language’ for self learning.

Opportunity • Students of Economics have better employment opportunities to get jobs in Banking

and corporate level in the private and the public sectors. • Job Opportunity in Teaching of Economics in India. • Through the knowledge of this subject students can create their dynamic personality

and develop their management power for their future goal.


165

Challenges • To complete syllabus in the stipulated time frame in the semester system is very

difficult. • To recapitulate or drilling of the courses are not possible in the CBCS semester

system. It is the biggest Challenge for the Higher education. • To maintain students thorough learning is a real challenge.

Future Plans • To start Economics Study Circle • To carry out Socio-economic survey of our Karjan Taluka. • To increase the number of academic tours. • To improve the skills to handle ICT • To prepare a model question bank at the college level. • To increase the scope of extension activities in the society.

� Faculty member of our department is qualified. � Regular attendance of students in the class. � Almost similar ratio of girl students in the department. � Counseling of students for their career Advancement and for their future

opportunities. � Active participation of faculty members and the students in the co-curricular and

extra-curricular activities. � Hindi is the most powerful communicative language at the National level.

Weakness

� Majority students have less proficiency in Hindi due to the optional subject at the School level.

� The department does not have the freedom to form its own curriculum. � Poor socio-economic and academic background of the students due to the rural

area. � Research caliber of students at the degree level is very low. � Strength of the students declines in the department due the new education policy of

the present Government of Gujarat.

Opportunity

� The students of Hindi have better employment opportunities to get jobs in public sectors.

� Job Opportunity in Teaching of Hindi at schools, colleges and University level in India.

� Job opportunity availed as a Translator in the different Govt. departments.

Challenges
