ANNUAL GENDER SENSITIZATION ACTION PLAN (2020-2021)

Being a co-educational institute where thousands of women and men come everyday for teaching and learning, the need for maintaining safety and security and keeping the ambience free from all encumbrances is felt by the stake-holders at every step. Hence, utmost care is taken in the campus so that the College remains an abode of peace and discipline. This year, because of the outbreak of COVID and the subsequent lock-down, and the uncertainty of re-opening of the institution, an organized plan cannot be laid down clearly. However, it has been decided that various programmes related to Gender Sensitization would be organized on the virtual platform that will enable, especially the students, to open up their minds and discuss issues related to their everyday life. Other than relevant talks by eminent personalities, students would be encouraged to participate in interactive sessions as well. Since human health is a matter of grave concern in today’s world, the GenderSenstization Committee has found it necessary to focus on preventive measures that could be adopted in the institution, once the college re-opened.
