Institutional Development Project

Technical Education Quality Improvement Programme (TEQIP)

To develop the institute and modernize the laboratories, I took the lead and prepared comprehensive project documents. After presentation and scrutiny, National Proje

ntation Unit (NP U), a body respoconsidered NIFFT in the category of Lead Institutions. Under this project, institute received a grant of Rs. 14 Crore (US $3.04 Million) and I am acting as a coordinator of the project.

Campus wide Networking (CWN)

This project was of worth Rs 1.5 Crore (US $ 0.32 Million). Its proposal was prepared by me and under the plan grant of the institute. The project was sanctioned by Board of Governors and controlling Ministry (year 2002). I was convener of the project. Here, main task was to prepare the specifications of networking components and other hardwares and softwares by
