Centre for Equal Oppurtunities

PROFILE

The Equal Opportunities Cell has been established to ensure the successful implementation of policies and programs for marginalized groups. The Cell offers guidance and counseling on academic, financial, social, and other issues. Its goal is to promote diversity among students, teaching staff, and non-teaching staff. By effectively implementing these measures, discrimination against individuals or groups is eliminated.Students from diverse social backgrounds are encouraged to maintain healthy relationships with one another. The academic community is actively educated about the issues surrounding social exclusion and efforts are made to fulfill the aspirations of marginalized communities. Any grievances related to students from disadvantaged backgrounds are carefully examined and resolved.

The Cell also collaborates with the Government and other agencies/organizations to coordinate the mobilization of academic and financial resources. This is done to provide assistance to students from disadvantaged groups and to ensure that SC/ST individuals receive their fair share of admissions and recruitment opportunities (both teaching and non-teaching positions).
