A student should be appreciated for his or her merits. It
would help them to improve their performance. One of the main agenda of the
Merit cum Talent Day programme was to acknowledge the achievements of the
brilliant students who have made both the college and their parents proud

qualities that will not only help them in achieving their goals but also bring
glory of success to our college. Our college has a great history regarding
excellent academics. Every year we get so many prices both in academic and
cultural fields that shows the academic and cultural intelligence of the
students. They were appreciated during the event.
Our institution has always provided the students with a
healthy and fairly competitive environment to help them grow in every sphere of
activity, be it academics, other extra- curricular roles etc. The students are
given equal opportunities so that they realise their true potential and get
ready to face the outer world once they complete their academic life and move
on to their respective areas of interest. Trophies which were sponsored by
former teachers and students of this college were awarded in the function.
Their memories, hopes and aspirations lives through the trophies which were
handed over to the winners. They are not just for recognising those students
who have performed exceptionally well in their academics but also in other
fields too. It was a memorable moment for the prize winners and the visitors
alike and it motivates them to shine in the near future.
After the prize distribution it was time for the

As the name indicates the Talent day programme was rich in
talents- all the sprouts that is the first year B.Ed and M.Ed students
