girls colleges, students are being trained for self
defense, skill development and also to act as
help centres in their career making.

Online e-classroom initiatives have been
facilitated to the government college students

learning processes across the state, especially
in remote areas, a unique effort for teaching

colleges, a new initiative namely crowd source

quality in colleges. the proposal is for science
colleges in the first phase, which may be
replicated in rest of the colleges after successful
