EXAMINATION RELATED GRIEVANCE MECHANISM
The Institution adopts non secrecy mode of evaluation and such mechanism is adopted and followed in a transparent and time bound manner. Upon assessment the answer scripts of ISA, are shared with students who get an opportunity to go through the scores awarded by the assessor, shortfalls of content in answers, and verification of total number of marks scored. In case of seminar presentation and practical papers, assessment is done in presence of the student wherein marks scored are informed upon completion of the exercise. A complaint/grievance by a student who is dissatisfied with the assessment can within 15 days after declaration of results approach the Principal in writing who may refer the same to the College Grievance Committee if found to be genuine. The Committee may after giving both the parties a reasonable opportunity to present the case, recommend the Principal, action to be taken. The findings of the Committee will be communicated to the student and action in the form of reassessment of the said answer book may be taken.
GENERAL GRIEVANCE OF STUDENTS MECHANISM
The Institution provides a mechanism to the students for redressal of their grievances with regard to their complaints on academic and non-academic matters. An aggrieved student who has any grievance can complain to the respective Mentor. Thereafter verifying the facts the Mentor shall try to redress the grievance within a reasonable time, preferably within a week of the receipt of the complaint. If the student is not satisfied with the decision of the Mentor then the same can be placed before the Head of the Institution i.e. the Principal, then the Principal shall, if necessary refer the same to the Grievance committee. The Committee, in turn, shall verify the facts and try to redress the grievance within a reasonable time. There is also a suggestion box made available for the students to place their grievances/ suggestions.
