    College Infrastructure

    The hostel is very good. In the second year, you'll be shifted to a 12-story building in a double B.Ed system. The rooms are fresh and have a balcony view of the Ganga River. The food is also great. There are 6 lifts in that hostel, and the rules are not that strict. You have to be present in the hostel by 10 pm.

    My experience till now is awesome.
