Message from H.O.D.

It gives me great opportunity to present the Newsletter

Issue: Dec. 2019- May 2020. This newsletter is one of the

way through which we can present information about the

various activities conducted by department. In this semester

students & faculties were participated in academic, co-

curricular and extra-curricular activities. By the mid of

March we all were face with the Covid19 pandemic. This

has come as a challenge for students and faculties; they

faced academic challenges that will need novel thought and

perspective. I hope we work with more energy to create a

better year for us as well as for the students.

With Blessings…
