 COLLEGE TRANSPORT FACILITY
The institute not only aspires for good academics but also cares for the safety, comfort &
convenience of the students; which are the prerequisites for their good academic
performance.
Hence for the students’ convenience along with many other facilities, college offers
transportation to all the students with its fleet of new, neat & clean buses. The college
transport facility offers many advantages to the students such as
1. Reaching on time to college and hence punctual in attending the classes.
2. Comfortable journey with an assured seat in the bus.
3. Less strain during the journey, hence better performance in academic activities.
4. Safety of their belongings.
5. Presence of at least 2 faculty incharges in the bus ensures discipline & risk free travel
(Especially for girl students).
6. Returning home promptly after the completion of the college.
7. No scope of ragging due to the presence of faculty incharges in the bus.
8. Fleet of 40 buses covering all possible route in twin cities.
Note: We are ready to add few more routes to our coverage if at least 10
students from new areas are registering for the transport facility
