potential to perform roles of reporters, journalists, etc in this area. As there are no
institutions offering courses in Journalism (at Undergraduate level) in Bellary and
the neighboring districts, this subject was introduced. The choice of Drama/Theater
as a new core subject was made with the rich cultural and historical heritage of the
district in view.

CRITERIA VII: INNOVATIONS AND BEST PRACTICES 7.1 Environment Consciousness 7.1.1 Does the Institute conduct a Green Audit of its campus and facilities?
Yes, the institution does the Green audit by planting trees on special occasions. It is
regularly watered by contract labourers appointed for this specific purpose. The NSS
Volunteers clean the campus once in a week as part of their regular activities. 7.1.2 What are the initiatives taken by the college to make the campus eco-friendly?
Energy conservation The institution is situated in open space and so the classrooms have sufficient natural
light. As there is enough inflow of natural air through windows fans are used only
during summer. The teaching and non teaching staffs switch off the lights and fans
before exiting the campus for the day. Efforts for Carbon neutrality The institution encourages through NSS Units to raise tree in the campus and nurture
it as they play a critical role in maintaining safe levels of Oxygen and
Carbondioxide. The staffs and students are advised to minimize the emission of gas.
Plantation The institutional building is covered with many Ashoka and Neem trees along with
other plants. During the visit of the guests, saplings are planted and is nurtured by
NSS volunteers and non-teaching staff.
Hazardous waste management No such harmful hazardous waste is produced in the institution. Whatever little that
is produced is not a harmful waste and the same is collected and stored and is
collected by the municipal garbage van.
e-waste management The peripherals of scrapped and outdated computers are reused for other computers
which are under repair. The institution looks to reuse or recycle the waste instead of
disposing. The question of bulk e-waste has not risen so far. However, in future the
institution has the plan to sell the scrap computers/laptops/printers/photocopy
machines etc and buy new ones out of it only after prior permission from the
department of Collegiate Education, Karnataka.

7.2 Innovations 7.2.1 Give details of innovations introduced during the last four years which have
created a positive impact on the functioning of the college. We record below what we consider to be our innovative practices
Power Point Presentation
Regular use of PPT by some of the teachers has made learning student centric as the
lecture of a teacher becomes logical, coherent and structured without too much of
deviation.
Language Laboratory
Language laboratory is mainly used by the Department of English for strengthening
the vocabulary and pronunciation.
EDUSAT
The Department of Collegiate Education, Karnataka has introduced EDUSAT program
where lecture of experts are relayed through satellite. The program begins at 12.30 pm
onwards and ends at 4.30 pm. Communication skills, numerical ability are the skills
taught though that program. This program has benefited students to learn the skills
affectively.
7.3 Best Practice - I
1. Title of the Practice
“Drinking Water in Hanging Pot”
2. Goal
The institution has recently introduced this practice. Water is a basic necessity of
livelihood both for the human beings and other living beings. It is a fact that only 3%
of the available water is portable that can be used for our various needs. As such,
water is a scarce resource which should be utilised more carefully among our uses.
Flora and Fauna also requires water as that of human beings. The institution’s aim in
introducing this practice is to make available this scarce resource not only to the
students and staff but also to the birds and animals that migrate or visit the campus and
take shelter here for some time.
SSR Report - Cycle 3
SSA GFGC, BELLARY Page 107
3. The Context The practice is very simple but ye very useful and the resources needed for
implementation is very negligible and so there is no challenge to implement it. It just
requires a little commitment and time on the part of the students and staff of the
institution.
4. The Practice
The institution has a quite number of trees bordering its fences and buildings. Water is
poured in small earthen pots and with the small rope it is hung to the branches of trees
in such a way were birds easily can identify and fly towards it to quench its thirst.
Along with water few grains are also added to the water. This is done with the
intention that birds can satisfy its hunger and also thirst.
Apart from hanging water in earthen pots for birds, concern is also shown to the
domestic animals which pass through the college street. For these animals small
cement container is placed near the entrance of main gate which makes accessible to
these animals.
The students and faculty of the institution do equally involve this practice. The
practice creates a sense of collective responsibility. There are no limitations in
practicing this service. 5. Evidence of Success
1. It is seen that students even in the scorching sun keep checking the water level in
the pots till they leave the campus.
2. Students also get the grains for the birds from their home.
3. Most of the students and faculty have adopted the same practice in the place where
they live.
4. Birds are found flying towards the container to drink water.
6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required
No problems are recorded as such this practice is a simple process and requires no
investment.
7. Notes If this practice is adopted by many, most of the surrounding birds as well as animals
can be saved in this area as Bellary experiences sun’s heat throughout the year.

every student to express their views and exhibit their talents fearlessly. Participation of
students contributes towards the proper functioning of the institution constantly.
3. The Context As most of the students hail from rural background it is very essential for them to
move along together in this diversified culture of the society. In this technological
world, every student needs to cope with it to lead a better life and contribute his/her
best to the society. This forum also necessitates the students with practical knowledge
on various social, economic and political issues. 4. The Practice
This forum is functional since 2012. This forum has a student convener selected
amongst students along with student members selected from different courses of this
institution consensually. The process of selection of the office bearers is done by the
students themselves in the beginning of the academic year. Any moral support
required from the faculty is readily extended to this forum.
Through this forum various competitions like essay writing, debated and discussions
etc are organized to the students of the institution. Purchases of the prizes to the
winners are taken care by the forum itself. 5. Evidence of Success
All the students participate in all the activities of the forum. Issues raised and Issues
raised and success achieved by the students is found both at the institutional and
University level.
Achievements at the University Level

examination fee which was enhanced by the university to the college students.
2. During the academic year 2015-16, the results of the final year was delayed, students of the
forum approached the Vice-Chancellor to take measures for declaring the results early.
3. Econometrics a paper in Economics was introduced to 3rd semester students at the
undergraduate. The students of this forum stated the problems in introducing this paper at the
undergraduate level to the Dean, Department of Economics and the BoS Chairman of
Economics and finally succeeded in changing it and introducing a new paper in its place.
4. In order to facilitate the students to complete their course, the students of 6th semester can
also take up the 5th semester (back papers) examination simultaneously.
At the institutional level
1. Through this forum students demand for filling the faculty (especially when new courses
are introduced).
2. Short of class rooms are also brought to the notice of the head of the institution.
3. Change in the institution working hours.
4. Issues like drinking water, cleanliness etc., are also brought to the notice of the head of the
institution.

Post Accreditation Initiatives
The institution completed its second cycle assessment and accreditation process in 2010 and it
was awarded ‘B’ grade with CGPA of 2.62. The peer team that visited last made about ten
recommendations for quality enhancement of the institution. The recommendations and the
initiatives taken by the institution are detailed below:
1. ICT enabled teaching and administration is required. Sixteen classrooms are installed with teaching aids. During special lectures, seminars
by students (particularly PG students), Power Point Presentations are made. The institution is
in the process of converting all classrooms into smart – classrooms due to the initiative of
department of Collegiate Education, Govt. of Karnataka. INFLIBNET N-list programs are
availed by all the faculty and PG students.
The use of ICT is also extended to the administrative section of the college. The office
is connected with LAN, WiFi is enabled, faculty details are available in department EMIS,
admission process is also online and office is also partially automated.
2. Computer literacy may be made compulsory for both the faculty and students and more computers may be purchased.
As per the state government order it is mandatory for the entire faculty to clear the
computer literacy test. As such many have got through this test. As far as the students are
concerned, at the UG level, basic computer papers are made compulsory as part of their
curriculum in two semesters. The institution has also purchased 40 computers in the last five
years. We have two computer labs.
3. Sports activity may be strengthened. The institution has a fulltime permanent Physical Director and in the last five years the
institution has won many laurels in various sports events at the inter-collegiate and inter-
university levels. The following table reflects the achievements made by the institution in the
last five years. The institution is constantly making all efforts to improve the sports facility.

4. Additional space is required for library, sports facility and auditorium to cater the need of the large number of students. The institution has raised seven class rooms since last accreditation. New building
with more classrooms is under construction under RUSA grants. The main library is
maintained in an area of 2260 Sq ft. PG departments have their own libraries. A separate
reading room is made available to the staff and the students.
For most of the outdoor sports events, the institution shares the big play ground with
Govt. Pre-University College which is adjacent to the institution. Due to lack of space the
institution is managing with seminar hall.
5. Local need based courses need to be introduced. Theatre was introduced during the academic year 2015-16 as one of the optional
subject in Arts stream.
6. Departments may organize state/national level seminars every year. Department of Political Science organized UGC sponsored two national level
seminar/conferences and one state level seminar and one day workshop was organized by
IQAC.
SSR Report - Cycle 3
SSA GFGC, BELLARY Page 236
7. Resource generation may be explored by encouraging the faculty members to undertake minor/major research projects. In the last five years, 24 faculty members have taken UGC sponsored minor research
projects.
8. A research committee may be established and systematic approach be adopted. A research committee has been formed with the Principal as its Chairman,with a
coordinator along with 8 members representing all the streams. The committee has
continuously been encouraging faculty members to carry out research activity and increase the
publications of the research work, attend and as well organize
conferences/seminars/workshops.
The faculty members are also encouraged to involve students in the research activity
either by assigning them to work on a project or similar to it.
The committee also encourages faculty members to take up guide ship from different
universities. It also encourages for taking up projects from different funding agencies. 9. Anti- ragging cell may be immediately established and all rules of the UGC and the courts be displayed permanently. An anti-ragging cell has been established with the Principal as Chairman with a
coordinator along with five faculty members as its members. The rules of the UGC and the
courts are displayed in the lobby.
10. A cell against sexual harassment may be established. A cell against sexual harassment is established with a women coordinator and all the
women staff as its members. Cases against sexual harassment are almost nil and any minor
issues from the students are brought to the notice of either to the coordinator or faculty
members and care is taken to settle the issue immediately and also inform the same to the
respective parents.
