Community engagement programme AAKRITI

In order to cultivate sensitivity among students towards education of deprived sections of our society the college started a project for helping young children from a nearby slum, located in sector 12-A, in their studies. Named ‘Aakriti’, this project is a humble effort of the college to assist in giving shape to the dreams of these underprivileged citizens of our country.

Aakriti, one of the several initiatives taken by our Principal Dr. Usha Malik during the short period since she joined this college, has generated considerable interest among our staff members and students, many of whom have volunteered to support these children, mostly girls, from 4th class onwards by giving them free coaching as well as learning material. To encourage adult literacy and empower women living in this locality, a few old women have also been motivated to join these classes. “Initial response of these impoverished children and women has been very encouraging”, observed Mrs. Urmil Sangwan, coordinator of this project, “our students, too, are feeling really excited to be able to contribute their bit for this noble cause.”
