Yes ofcourse.. I would recommend the college to everyone becz it's a heritage college and imparts a vast knowledge. It has a very good hostel. The rooms are clean well furnished and very safe to stay. The food of the hostel tastes as if its home made. The staffs are very caring and with a loving and caring behaviour. They are very helpful. The roommates are very supportive and sensible.. they take care of 3qch and everyone. It's a pleasure to have such roommates.

Overall our college is really excellent....... But one can strictly maintain the all the disciplines..... To do class is very mandatory here and regular classes are held in our college... Attendance is one of the important parameter here.....
