The institution has gone through some changes in the interim period after the second NAAC visit in 2011 but has been able to negotiate these with success. This report would not be possible without the support and encouragement of many people .I would like to express my gratitude to our Management for their unstinting support in preparing the report and for the entire NAAC Re- Accreditation process. I thank all members of the IQAC for their wonderful effort in preparing the SSR, taking it through numerous revisions in the last six months. I warmly acknowledge the efforts of the Heads of various departments in preparing their department profiles. I would also like to thank all faculties for their enthusiastic assistance whenever it was required and the administrative staff for patiently bearing with our innumerable requirements of data. I hope that this report will provide not only data and information but also convey the pulse of an institution which has grown steadily across more than four decades to its present stature.
