Preface

Pratap College is managed by Khandesh Education Society (KES). The KES is an ideal blend of

the traditional and the modern education. Today, KES is a dynamic educational institution with

firm commitment to the Excellence. The KES has always been a student centric and teacher-

managed organization. The KES looks into future with great optimism and confidence. It will

enthusiastically and pro-actively embrace new opportunities of growth and development.

The founders of the College had first started Pratap High School in 1908 and later

established the Khandesh Education Society in 1914. Pratap High School is a place of pride in

the hearts of the people, as a historical monument and a symbol of the freedom struggle where

the great freedom fighter and philanthropist Pujya Sane Guruji served as a teacher. In the

memory of this devoted soul, the Government of India published a POSTAL STAMP. After the

establishment of Pratap High School, KES management had taken bold initiative to start a

privately managed college on the 20th

June 1945, naming it as the Pratap College. The name was

given in appreciation of the support of Shri Motilal Manakchand Agrawal alias Shrimat Pratap

Sethaji. Principal Jayakar, the then, Vice Chancellor of Bombay University of was the master of

the ceremony at the inaugural function of the College. The first Principal of the College was

Prof. K.R.Kanitkar –the Retired Principal of Fergusson College Pune. The College received

affiliation of University of Bombay, then ofPune University and presently it is affiliated to North

Maharashtra University Jalgaon.

The College has grown academically and acquired a reputation as nation-building

institution. It is a matter of great significance, that the College received active and moral support

from academicians and statesmen. The emphasis of the founders on ‗KNOWLEDGE‘ is aptly

reflected in the college emblem, which bears the inscription, ―TEJASWINAVADHITMASTU!

– LET OUR KNOWLEDGE BE MORE BRIGHT‖. The ‗SARASWATI‘ in this emblem,

symbolizes the power of knowledge. Pratap College has produced great patriots, thinkers,

philosophers, poets, writers, teachers, social workers, scientists, industrialists, entrepreneurs,

researchers, administrators and defense officers from first generation learner students from poor

farmer families and farm workers residing in villages. There is no walk of life that has not

basked in the sun of the Pratapions spirit. The College is situated in drought prone rural area.

After its foundation in 1945, there were no transportation facilities connected to villages up to

eighties of the last century. Founder visionaries have built hostel facilities for both girls and

boys. The first boys and ladies hostels were constructed in 1957 and 1959 respectively.

It is NAAC reaccredited ‗A Grade‘ College with CGPA = 3.30 (September 2011) and

U.G.C. honoured ‗College with Potential for Excellence‘ for two times (24th

February 2010,

2014). It conducts 23 UG, 18 PG and 10 M. Phil./ Ph. D. It has almost all educational and

supporting facilities in terms of 85 Studious faculty members, Recognized Research Guides,

Class rooms, Seminar halls, Indoor hall and Outdoor stadium with all play fields, Hostels for

girls and boys, Research laboratories for Physics- Chemistry and Geography, digitalised library

with more than 1.25 lakh books, Computer with ICT facilities in each department, Botanical

garden, Independent space for each department, Active researchers publishing regularly in

journal of high international repute, Research assistance from DRDO-DIT-DST-UGC,

Nanomaterials Research Lab‖ and Central Instrumentation lab with almost all sophisticated

brilliant research grade instruments. The College has obtained the grants of Rs. 1.42 Crore from

UGC through major/minor projects, Rs.1.1 Crore from UGC for sport facilities, Rs. 1.0 Crore

from UGC under CPE scheme-Phase I, Rs. 1.5 Crore from UGC under CPE scheme-Phase II,

Rs. 1.36 Crore from UGC under BSR scheme, Rs.1.34 Crore from DST under its FIST scheme.

‗Say No to Plastics‘: Efforts are underway to reduce the use of plastic bags and

bottles on campus.

Eco Friendly Ganesh Visarjan initiated from 2016:

The Ganesh Festival is celebrated on large scale in Maharashtra. But the

immersion of the idols in the river causes water pollution.

Therefore, Principal encouraged the students and convenor of Environment

Science devised a innovative way to go green. Large number of Students from the

College was invited to get involved in this activity and asked them to bring the

idols of Ganesh for Visarjan. The College has designed and constructed a tank

and made permanent arrangement for Visargen useful for every year.

Accordingly, the activity got huge response. Large number of Ganesh Divotees

participated in this green initiative of Ganesh Visarjan in tank consisting of water

solution. The nirmalya is also collected and was used as organic fertilizer.

E- Waste Management

E-waste is hazardous to the environment and health of people and it needs

to be recycled and disposed in appropriate ways. A large quantity of e-waste is

collected and sent off for storage.



29

There are 300 Computers, 28 Printers, 04 Xerox Machines and 02 FAX

Machines.

The E-waste and defective items from computer labs collected and stored

properly.

The management is periodically disposing the E waste through the local

vendors.

Tree Plantation in premises to make the students aware of environment

protection:

The College purposely purchased 250 plants of 8 to 10 ft height in June 2013

and planted through the students of each class in presence of members of

management, faculty and nonteaching staff. The students had given

responsibility to protect and grow the plants. Today the plants are healthy and

grown to height of 13 to 15 ft.

The College purposely purchased 100 plants of 8 to 10 ft height in July 2016

and planted through the students of each class in presence of management,

faculty and nonteaching staff. The students had given responsibility to protect

and grow the plants.

The College had organized Tree Plantation program at College Campus and

surrounding villages through NSS unit.

The college has Botanical Garden in which plantation of various types of

ornamental and medicinal have been made. There is a gardener to take care of

the garden. The waste water from R.O. water plant is used in botanical garden.

This activity helps in maintaining eco-friendly environment.

Vermiculture Composting Culture

The college has started Vermi culture composting culture in house on 30 Sq.

meter land. The main purpose to reduce disposable waste in the college campus

and after complete process of vermin composting it is used as manure and

awareness in farmers. The main benefits of the process are to reduce the waste in

the environment and also it is cost savings process. This is mainly carried out:

To make the Villagers aware of the process of composting during their

visits to College.

To publicize the benefits of composting and organic farming.

Environment Awareness Program



30

The College takes initiatives for environmental awareness. Following

activities have found to be effective for environmental awareness.

As a part of University Curriculum, the College has introduced the subject,

namely, ―Environment Studies‖ as a compulsory subject. Syllabus consists of

following topics: Air Pollution and its causes, effects & installation of various

devices that reduces the air pollution. Water Pollution and its causes, effects

& various methods to prevent it. Sound Pollution and its causes, effects &

equipments that reduces it.

The students from all faculties have to learn ―Environment Studies‖. This

activity has been found to be effective for environmental awareness.

The NSS and NCC units of the college has taken initiative by organizing

various social programs to develop awareness regarding environmental

protection.

The department of Geography has been celebrating the ―World Environment

Day on 5th

of June‖ and the ―Geography Day on 14th

January‖ every year.

The department of Geography has introduced a paper ―Natural Geography‖

for M.Sc. students.

Awareness of Carbon Consumption

The College organizes programmes to make the Students and Staff aware

of pollution caused by use of vehicles.

In the college campus almost 90% of students are using bicycles.

The carbon consumption awareness programmes improved to minimize

carbon emission.

Electricity Consumption

Average Electricity Consumption per day was 759 Units (kWH). The

consumption is too high. To reduce electrical Energy Consumption or to keep the

Consumption Conserved. The college is preparing an action plan to replace phase

wise the conventional electrical appliances by the modern ones (the tube lights in

academic units and street lights are replaced by CFL and LED lights). The

College has appointed ―Energy Audit Committee‖ to monitor the electrical

consumption and also to recommend to College various ways to reduce the

consumption. One of the suggestions was to use Solar Energy based lights.

Use of Renewable Energy

The electricity consumption was too high to provide hot water to 250 girls

in Ladies Hostel. The water heater based on ―wood as fuel‖ was not cost



31

effective, not easy to handle, was creating carbon and polluting the environment.

The College have therefore installed (in 2014) 32 Solar panels (having cost of

4.22 Lakh) in Girls‘ Hostel.

Generator or other facility for management / regulation of electricity and

voltage : The college has 2 generators i) 50 kv and ii) 25 kv to provide backing.

Water Harvesting

The department of Chemistry is the biggest in the College. There are 6

independent laboratories in the department. The department runs M,Sc. Inorganic

Chemistry, M,Sc. Organic Chemistry, M,Sc. Drug Chemistry and M.Phil/Ph.D.

programmes. There are highest number of students are admitted to T.Y.B.Sc.

Class. To get the proper and accurate results of Practicals, large amount of

distilled water is required. To satisfy this requirement, the College has made

special arrangement to collect and store the rain water. Rain water is collected in

U type pipes from clean roof which is then channelized to pass through pipes to

reach to big storage tanks. The care is taken not to contaminate the water and is

used for the whole year. The technique is cost effective. No additional man power

is required. The large electrical consumption otherwise required to prepare large

amount distilled water from distillation plants is avoided and bypassed.

their studies if some sort of support is not provided)?

Generally, most important factor for drop out is economical weakness. The college has List of

students getting support under following schemes:

Earn while learn scheme,

Financial Assistance to Economically Weaker section.

As the College is situated in rural and backward region, most of the girl students are first

learners and have no educational background. The parents have to arrange their marriage as

early as possible. This is one of the reasons that the girl students leave the education.

The problems of these students are identified. The backward class cell and other bodies

help in identifying these students.

The academic performance of the students at risk is evaluated by the respective faculty

members and the class in-charges. The heads of the various departments collect regular

evaluation process.

Two parts university and college, university announces evaluation and curriculum very

clearly. Evaluation pattern mentioned is displayed on university website. Students are

informed about evaluation pattern.

Each teacher explains the evaluation pattern and procedure in class. The students are

informed in detail about the grading pattern, assignment valuation, seminar evaluation,

attendance mark, etc.

The Vice principal (Examinations) informs the teachers about the evaluation schedule.

College carries out continuous evaluation through test, tutorials, projects ,seminars

The students are also encouraged to visit the university website regularly to get

information pertaining to their academic matters.

Vice principal gives orientation talks to all the teachers of the College on changes that



109

are made periodically in the evaluation scheme by the University.

The internal assessment grades are displayed on the notice board for student perusal.

The Principal informs the departments the date for uploading the internal marks on the

University website.

The College also makes use of its website to give a detailed account of the evaluation

process.

2.5.2 What are the major evaluation reforms of the university that the institution has

adopted and what are the reforms initiated by the institution on its own?

The evaluation of students is conducted based on the norms set by the University.

Internal examinations and external examinations are the two components of the

evaluation process.

Internal grades are calculated on the basis of assignments, internal tests conducted by the

teacher concern and seminars.

Sometimes projects are a part of curriculum designed by university. Project work is a

part of continuous assement introduced by college.

Students of both UG and PG sections are expected to submit a project and attend a viva-

voce. In subjects like, Physics, the students have to pursue project work compulsorily as

a part of curriculum.

Dates for the submission of assignments and the conduct of seminars are given to the

students in advance.

Evaluated answer sheets are returned to the students to have an idea of their performance

levels. Sometimes their performance in examination is discussed in class.

An opportunity is given to reappear to interested and poor performers and absent

students.

Parents are informed and counselled in cases of poor performance and lack of

attendance.

Model examinations are conducted before the commencement of University

examinations.

The results of internal examinations are published on the notice board for grievance

redressal before uploading it on the University portal.

Entry Level Tests and tests to assess the progress after remedial classes are also part of

the evaluative reforms adopted by the college.

2.5.3 How does the institution ensure effective implementation of the evaluation reforms

of the university and those initiated by the institution on its own?

College makes every effort to effectively implement the evaluation reforms of the university:

The Central Examination Committee prepares the Examination Schedule for UG internal



110

examination.

The departments conduct internal tests twice during each semester. Mark of Internal

examination are displayed on notice boards in the respective departments for students.

Queries and grievances, if any, are sorted out and attended to immediately.

The Heads of department / coordinators monitor effective and timely implementation of

the system and procedure of evaluation. Meetings faculty members are held as and when

required.

The college prepares schedule of Central Assessment Programme (CAP) to assess the

answer books of F.Y.B.A. / B.Sc. /B.Com. students. The examiners are appointed, answer

papers are assessed, and results are prepared and declared as early as possible.

2.5.4 Provide details on the formative and summative assessment approaches adapted to

measure student achievement. Cite a few examples which have positively impacted

the system.

Students are assessed based on formative assessment which is customized to suit the

objective of the subject and summative assessment as prescribed by the University:

Formative assessment includes Seminar presentation, short quizzes, assignments,

Extension Work, an Open Book Test (with the concerned teacher deciding which books

are to be allowed for this purpose) and Mini Research Project by an individual student or

a group of students, role playing, workshops, communication skills etc.

The college provides opportunities to students to exhibit their knowledge through the

medium of expression (oral/ written) desired by the student.

The outcome of the entire exercise is that the evaluation method does not become a

hurdle while evaluating students. Students can optimally express their knowledge and

this enhances their confidence.

The following measures have positively impacted the system:

Tutorial and mentoring are powerful tools of formative evaluation.

Remedial classes for slow learners.

Transparency in the system of grading for formative evaluation.

Mechanism for grievance redressal.

Importance given to practicals and viva-voce.

2.5.5 Detail on the significant improvements made in ensuring rigor and transparency in the

internal assessment during the last four years and weightages assigned for the overall

development of students (weightage for behavioral aspects, independent

Showing answer sheets to the students and obtaining their signature on the printed

presence list helps in maintaining transparency. While no weightage is assigned specifically to



111

different aspects of student development, aspects such as communication skills get tested

through written tests as well as viva voce. Projects, presentations and group discussions allow

scope for testing the capacity for independent exploration and learning, while enhancing

communicative abilities. As of now, there is no provision for evaluating behavioral aspects

through the University Evaluation mechanism or even at the college level.

2.5.6 What are the graduates attributes specified by the college/ affiliating university?

How does the college ensure the attainment of these by the students?

Text books published by the university specify attributes expected from students

including graduates. The college always keeps these desirable attritutes while imparting teaching

and ensuring effective learning. At the end of the process, a student is expected to be equipped

with the attributes/skills by providing necessary reference books ICT facilities.

1. Humanities: Laguage lab for the development language skills

LCDs for extra exposure to various literary forms

Books and reference books for gaining thorough knowledge related to the syllabi

2. Social sciences: LCDS facilities computer internet made available to departments

providing assess to knowledge in their respective subjects.

3. Science: aviability of well equipped laboratories

The college helps the student in attaining these attributes not only through academic training, but

also through the different co curricular and extra-curricular activities available on the campus.

2.5.7 What are the mechanisms for redressal of grievances with reference to evaluation

both at the college and University level?

A four level Grievance Redressal method for internal assessment is adopted by the college

A student may directly approach the teacher in case of a grievance regarding the internal

evaluation.

If the student is not satisfied with the clarification of the teacher concerned, he

may approach to Grievance Redressal Cell of the Department comprising of the Head of

the Department and faculty members of the department.

The Principal of the College is the chairman of Grievance Redressal cell along with four

heads of departments, one from each faculty, and Vice Principal of each faculty.

review and revise the action plan. The leadership considers the modifications in action

plan and incorporates these into the strategic plan in consultation with LMC. The IQAC



220

and departmental committees initiate the necessary implementation plan for every

academic year.

Interaction with stakeholders

The Principal follows a democratic and open door policy of leadership. The

stakeholders are free to come to the office of the Principal with grievances and

constructive suggestions. The Principal also interacts with stakeholders such as alumni,

parents and prospective employers. The Principal holds interactions with various

departments. This helps the College to ensure that its activities are as per the mission and

vision of the College and in tune with the needs of the society. Various meetings and

interactive sessions are arranged. Interactions with students through welcome functions,

interactions with Heads of departments, Student Council meetings and Alumni meet are

regularly arranged.

Proper support for policy and planning through need analysis, research inputs and

consultations with the stakeholders

The Principal and Management understand the importance of dynamic policy and

planning. The Principal analyzes and carries out the academic and infrastructural needs

periodically with the help of key administrative (Vice Principals) and academic (Heads of

departments and senior faculty members) personnel. Interaction with ―Academic

Committee‖ appointed by Regional Joint Director of Higher Education, ―Local Inquiry

Committees‖ appointed by the University, Peer Review and Steering Committee

appointed by funding agencies like Department of Information and Communication

Technology (DIT), New Delhi and other Higher Education bodies provide valuable

inputs for future policies and planning. The policies and plans both are framed based on

the past experience and after assessing future needs.

The status of College has been conferred on ―The College with Potential for

Excellence‖ twice by the UGC. The UGC, therefore, had invited the College for

presentation of Action Plan. The College prepared an action plan to excel the quality of

education and presented it thoroughly before the UGC committee. The UGC committee

had approved the plan and provided financial support for academic development. The

College followed the action plan in spirit and letter approved by the UGC committee for

academic development.



221

The Management provides all the necessary support (administrative, financial and

logistic) for any new plans designed for the benefit of stakeholders. The feedback from

students, parents and alumni is also given due weightage for planning.

Reinforcing the culture of excellence

The Principal of the College and the Management have consciousness of the

quality and the quality has been considered as value and not a strategy. ―Quest of

Excellence‖ is the motto of the College. The leadership is committed to reinforce the

culture of excellence in all the aspects for providing a dynamic learning environment on

the campus. The Principal as well as all the faculty members of the College are

committed to impart quality education through traditional and innovative learning

practices. The students are sensitized on relevant social issues and encouraged to

participate in understanding and solving, at least mitigating, these in some measure

through various activities both on and outside the campus.

Champion organizational change

The Principal and Vice Principals play a critical role in formulation and

implementation of policy/action plan as per the current trends and requirements. The

Principal through IQAC compiles the suggestions from the stakeholders in formal or

informal ways for formulation of policies and action plan. After finalization of the action

plan, the changes in the policies are communicated to the Heads of the departments and

faculty members for implementation. A conscious effort by the leadership and all the

stakeholders generates the positive forward momentum needed to bring about change and

maintain the reputation of the College.

6.1.4 What are the procedures adopted by the institution to monitor and evaluate policies

and plans of the institution for effective implementation and improvement from

time to time?

Plans are discussed in IQAC meetings.

Concerned heads of sections e.g IT incharge,examination incharge,time table

incharge are given charge to Implement the decisions taken by IQAC

If there are financial issues involed then requied quotetiond are required quotations

and orders are placed.

Other issues such as examinations are dealt with after consultation with all those



222

involved in the process.

Governing Educational Management System (GEMS), which will be helpful to all

stakeholders to follow the plans and the policies of the institution with greater ease.

6.1.5 Give details of the academic leadership provided to the faculty by the top

management?

The Management has appointed the most meritorious candidate as the Principal of the

College. The past Principals were the recipient of the Best Teacher Award given by

the State Government, an eminent scientist, academician and administrator having

experience of working on apex bodies like Management Council, Senate, and

Academic Council of North Maharashtra University Jalgaon. The credit of his

appointment goes to the top management. The present Principal has also consistently

good academic record.

The Management has given freedom to the Principal to appoint senior and studious

faculty members as Vice Principals of the College. This is one of the best policies of

the Management. This policy enables and encourages the Vice Principals to monitor

quality of teaching-learning and evaluation. The Vice Principals have the voice and

freedom to participate in top management which leads to proper administration of the

College.

The top management has maintained the studious environment in the College by

promoting five studious faculty members to the post of Professor on the basis of their

academic performance as per the provision of PBAS format published by the UGC.

The Management also promotes the Assistant and Associate Professors to their next

grade pay time to time by arranging the interviews conducted in presence of the

committee appointed by the University.

The Management has made provision in the bylaws of the Trust to appoint a

―Secretary of Khandesh Education Society‖ from the permanent faculty members.

The faculty is given a free hand to work as conveners, coordinators, secretaries or

members of the organizing committees of various academic events organized by the

College. The teachers can also work on various academic bodies in the University or

nongovernment organizations.



223

The Heads of departments are given freedom to administer their respective

departments, plan and execute academic programmes. The class-wise In-charges and

Post Graduate Programme Coordinators are appointed to facilitate smooth conduct of

academic activities throughout the year and monitor the overall progress of the

students.

There are ―Departmental Committees‖ to take all the necessary steps for successful

implementation of the academic plan and provide the feedback. The faculty members

are allowed to participate in and contribute to the deliberations. In addition to this,

there are the committees which help in planning the academic activities.

The administrative structure of the College is monitored by the Khandesh Education

Society- the parent body of Pratap College. There is a representation of 5 teachers

on the management of Khandesh Education Society.

There are 13 members on the Management who help in executing the day to day

activities of the College.

There is about 40 % representation of teachers on Managing Board of KES from the

College and the conducted schools of the Management.

Representation of 5 teachers on apex controlling body is uncommon and is as

follows:

Principal - of the College by virtue of post,

Secretary - a permanent teacher from Senior College,

College Teachers‘ Representative - a permanent teacher from Senior or Junior

College,

Head Masters‘ Representative- one Head Master out of four from the conducted

schools of the K.E.Society,

Teachers‘ Representative- one of the teachers from the conducted schools of the

K.E.Society

These teachers‘ representatives help in solving the issues related to faculty, staff and

students.

The teachers‘ representatives raise the issues related to faculty, staff and students in

the board meetings of the Management and the solutions are sought as early as



224

possible. It helps to keep the interrelations between faculty and the Management

healthy.

There is full autonomy and freedom to teachers for advancing their scholarships,

research and experimentation and involvement in educational innovation and reforms.

6.1.6 How does the college groom leadership at various levels?

The College grooms leadership at three main levels: teaching faculty, students and

administrative and support (non-teaching) staff levels. The procedure adopted for

creating leaders at different levels is described below.

Identify various activities/tasks to be implemented for every academic year according

to the perspective plan of the institute.

Circulate the list of activities/tasks amongst the faculty and staff.

Involve the members in the college activities of his/her own choice.

Assign responsibilities by providing freedom and necessary support for

implementation.

Appreciate the innovative ideas and leadership qualities shown by the members.

The College authorities appoint the Head of the department to take up the role of

departmental administrative and academic head. In addition, the Head is also given

the responsibility of handling some of the administrative tasks at the college level. All

teachers conduct various curricular, extracurricular activities and take up

administrative responsibilities in rotation.

For administrative and support staff, some training workshops for overall

developmental skills are arranged. Training for effective use of ICT is usually

conducted through some professionals.

The student leadership is groomed through the students‘ Council which is formed

every academic year. For every class, a Class Representative is selected. All Class

Representatives are members of the Council. They elect one student as College

Representative for the university representation. S/He also works in coordination with

the Principal for planning and implementation of Annual Social Gathering and other

extracurricular activities. Several co-curricular and extra-curricular activities of the

College are planned and executed with the help of students including seminars,

workshops and conferences.



225

6.1.7 How does the college delegate authority and provide operational autonomy to the

departments / units of the institution and work towards decentralized governance

system?

Decentralized governance system is a key aspect of democratic governance for the

development and utilization of human potential. For the development and governance

to be fully responsive and representational, the authorities have appointed and

empowered the five Vice Principals and Heads of the department and provided

administrative as well as academic autonomy for effective governance.

The administrative matters of the Arts, Science and Commerce faculties are looked

after by the five Vice-Principals. They have adequate autonomy on a number of

matters such as preparing admission schedule as well as setting up committees for

different classes, designing and evaluation of internal examination schedule and

pattern, and other administrative and academic matters.

Under the supervision of the Principal, the College provides autonomy to the Vice-

Principals and the Heads of departments. Academic planning, assignment of

workload to teachers and non-teaching staff are done at the departmental level by the

Head of department. Each department plans and organizes the academic activities

related to its subject. Every department is given freedom to frame time-table for the

practicals, to identify and invite visiting faculty or guest speakers, to assign projects,

to decide the theme for workshops. Delegation of power to sanction leave to the staff

and to utilize the allocated budget as per the requirements is also looked after by the

Head of department.

The College has formulated various committees to facilitate smooth functioning and

conduct of all the activities in the college. The roles and responsibilities of the

committee members are well defined. Each committee has a ―Coordinator/Convener‖

who co-ordinates the meetings/ proceedings of the work of the committee including

assigning responsibility to each member of the committee.

In addition, the distribution of office administrative work and monitoring is handled

by the Registrar of the College along with the college authority. The Principal then

ensures that this information is available for the Management to review the activities

of the College. This is an important step in aligning the activities of the College with

the Institutional Vision and Mission.



226

6.1.8 Does the college promote a culture of participative management? If ‗yes‘, indicate

the levels of participative management.

Yes, the College is committed to a culture of participative management. The

Principal, Vice Principals, Registrar and IQAC coordinator are responsible for

academic and administrative leadership of the college. The Principal meets the Heads

of departments and Vice Principals to discuss academic or administrative issues. The

IQAC meets periodically to discuss the points related to the quality policy and plans.

The apex decision making body at college level is the Local Managing Committee

(LMC) of Khandesh Education Society. The LMC has representatives from teaching

as well as non teaching staff. All the issues regarding academics, administration and

enhancement of infrastructure, sanctioning of sabbatical/ study leave etc., are decided

by the LMC.

The IQAC also includes faculty members along with members from the society for

policy/plan formulation and its implementation. The faculty members from IQAC

play an active role in academic activities of the college. The students actively

participate in various curricular, co-curricular and extra-curricular activities.

The faculty members participate in the management process not only through the

LMC but one of the faculty members is on the Managing Board as a Teachers‘

Representative.

considered for better appraisal.

The College follows the ―Performance Based Assessment System (PBAS)‖ of the



237

UGC as prescribed in its regulations of July 2013. The University has developed an

―Academic Performance Indicator (API)‖ system which is based on PBAS System

developed by the UGC.

The College IQAC addresses all the issues related to appraisal system of the staff and

regularly evaluates it and then forwards it to the University authorities for final

validation of API Scores.

The API is divided into three categories:

Category I: Teaching, Learning and Evaluation related activities: Max. Score 125

Category II: Co-curricular, Extension and Professional Development related

activities: Maximum Score 50

Category III: Research, Publications and Academic Contributions: No Maximum

Score defined.

At the beginning of the academic year, each teacher submits his/her duly filled PBAS

along with supporting documents to the IQAC. The IQAC scrutinizes and assigns

scores under various categories. These scores are compiled and presented to the

University authorities at the time of its validation under Career Advancement Scheme

(CAS).

The IQAC of the College has developed a well defined mechanism for collecting this

information, scrutinizing it and storing it. It also acts as a guidance cell for all queries

regarding the API system.

The Teacher‘s Diary developed by the IQAC gives clear information of all academic

contributions of a teacher. This diary is maintained till the end of each academic term

by the teacher.

The IQAC of the College has developed a well defined mechanism to take feedback

regarding the teaching performance of teachers from the students, parents and alumni.

The IQAC of the College analyses the feedback forms and make suggestions to the

teachers in camera if necessary.

6.3.4 What is the outcome of the review of the performance appraisal reports by the

management and the major decisions taken? How are they communicated to the

Associate Professors to the post of Professors or promotions of Assistant Professors

to the post of Associate Professors or promotions of Assistant Professors to various

intermediate grade pays are given under CAS- as per the regulations of the UGC.

The top management has taken major decisions to promote (i) five Associate

Professors to the post of Professors in 2011, (ii) to qualified Assistant Professors to

the post of Associate Professors and (iii) also to Assistant Professors to their

respective Grade Pays on the basis of their academic performance.

The outcome of the review of PBAS for all teachers leads to a better understanding of

:

Role of a teacher and his/her contribution to the development of the College.

Use of teaching methods/ methodology followed in the teaching, aids used in

teaching, quality of course material and conduct of lectures and practicals (term

wise)

It also focuses on the research caliber of the teacher, which is evident through

types and number of research projects, quality of research publications etc.

In addition, the Head of department signs the Confidential Report of each faculty

member and forwards it to the Principal. The Principal authenticates the report and

forwards it to IQAC.

A final report on the appraisal process is forwarded to the University or withheld

under Career Advancement Scheme after the decision of the top management.

6.3.6 What are the measures taken by the Institution for attracting and retaining eminent

faculty?

The tradition of excellence fostered by the College and its glorious heritage are



240

major sources for attracting prospective faculty members. The vacancies are advertised in

local newspapers. The College has a well-defined recruitment policy within the

framework of the UGC and State Government norms. For self-financed programmes well

qualified and meritorious faculty are recruited and retained by paying consolidated

salaries.

All the faculty members are given academic autonomy. The ambience, vibrant

student population, work culture, freedom, the opportunity to explore, good academic and

research infrastructure are some of the distinctive characteristics of the College. The

College recognizes individual achievements or contributions and provides all the support

and motivation needed for them to develop further.

The care taken by the top management while selection of teachers:

The College gets the roster checked from Assistant Commissioner, Backward

Cell, Nasik. Knowing the category-wise vacancies, the College applies to Regional Joint

Director for No objection Certificate; the College applies to the University to advertise

the posts of Assistant Professors.

The College gives wide publicity to invite applications from the talented qualified

aspirants from all across the state/country.

The College invites, by registered posts, all the candidates who applied for the posts

despite that the guidelines of University to invite only 10 % of candidates/applicants.

The University gives selection committees. The college invites all the three subject

experts even though technically the quorum of two is sufficient in order to assess the

candidates in all respects.

The College arranges the interviews in presence of the statutory Selection Committee.

The College authority requests the Selection Committee to give sufficient time to

assess the knowledge level of every candidate.

The College authority requests the Selection Committee to give preference to

meritorious, studious and NET or SET qualified candidates. Ph.D. candidates are

considered only if no NET/SET candidate is available.

The best meritorious candidate is given opportunity to present on any topic of his or

her interest in order to understand the method of teaching, conceptual understanding

and subject knowledge properly.



241

Once the Selection Committee has selected the candidate, the College gives

appointment orders on the same day on which the interview process is completed.

The proposal of selected candidates is sent to the University for approval.

6.4 Financial Management and Resource Mobilization

6.4.1 What is the institutional mechanism to monitor effective and efficient use of

available financial resources?

The College is managed by Khandesh Education Society, Amalner. KES has a well

formulated financial policy, which ensures that every year the budget is prepared well

in advance after taking into consideration the requirements of the departments.

Each department is expected to provide a list of requirements such as equipments,

computers, instruments as well as consumables required for the next academic session

to the Principal.

The Principal forwards it to KES Managing Board. The Budget is reviewed by a team

of KES which approves the same after necessary changes and if necessary KES

makes a provision for advance/ additional funds wherever needed.

The Principal, Managing Board and the LMC work on the requirements and decide

the priorities. Funds are allocated on priority basis for various purposes. The

Principal, LMC and Managing Board study the annual expenditure, scrutinize the

budget.

Before making major purchases of scientific equipments, the expert Professor from

University is invited in the Board Meeting. The Management then takes decision to

purchase and permits the Principal to place an order.

Before making major purchases like computers etc, a technical team verifies the

availability, specifications and functioning of similar equipment before

recommending the purchase.

A purchase committee ensures that the correct equipment with the right specifications

is procured at the best possible prices.

The management then takes decision to purchase and permits the Principal to place an

order.

6.4.2 What are the institutional mechanisms for internal and external audit? When was

the last audit done and what are the major audit objections? Provide the details on



242

compliance.

funding agencies, such as, DST, UGC, DIT etc:

The grants have been utilized effectively for teaching and research activities.



247

There is improvement in quality of teaching performance and in research and

development.

New experiments have been introduced at UG and PG level.

UG and PG students are coming forward for pursuing projects, analyzing their

samples and acquiring competitive skills. Due to the availability of instruments in

the lab, it is possible to characterize and analyze the sample quickly. This is a sort

of motivation for newly admitted students.

It is easily possible for departments to organize ―Training Programmes‖ for UG

and PG students and to make them aware of sophisticated instruments and to

orient them towards research activities. (The experts from GAMRY and JASCO

companies have given training to faculty members and the P.G. students two

times on Cyclic Voltammetry and FTIR 6600 respectively. The training was

found immediately fruitful as each of the 50 P.G. students have characterized 5

samples independently.)

Young faculty members are getting exposure of sophisticated instruments which

motivated them to register for Ph.D. and involve in active research.

The faculty members have started taking interest in research activities.

The quality of publications has definitely improved.

The faculty members are submitting research projects to national level funding

agencies for grants.

New instruments purchased from FIST programme are encouraging the students

and young faculty and is helping to inculcate research aptitude amongst them.

This could be considered as the future investment which will give birth to

dedicated researchers who would be able to handle cutting edge societal

problems.

After getting the support from DST under its FIST programme, the College

management and overall college administration is supporting the students and

faculty members to organize conferences and present their research in

national/international level conferences/seminars/ workshops.

Pratap College is A Grade College with CPE status. FIST programme in operation

has imparted momentum to its academic and research growth.

Vermiculture Composting Culture

The institute has started Vermi culture composting culture in house on 30 Sq. meter land.

The main purpose to reduce disposable waste in the college campus and after complete

process of vermin composting it is used as manure. The main benefits of the process are

to reduce the waste in the environment and also it is cost savings process. This is mainly

carried out:

To make the Villagers aware of the process of composting during their visits to

College.

To publicize the benefits of composting and organic farming.

Environment Awareness Program

The College takes initiatives for environmental awareness. Following

activities have found to be effective for environmental awareness.

As a part of University Curriculum, the College has introduced the subject,

namely, ―Environment Science‖ as a compulsory subject. Syllabus consists of

following topics: Air Pollution and its causes, effects & installation of various

devices that reduces the air pollution. Water Pollution and its causes, effects

& various methods to prevent it. Sound Pollution and its causes, effects &

equipments that reduces it.



260

The students from all faculties have to learn ―Environment Science‖. This

activity has been found to be effective for environmental awareness.

The NSS and NCC units of the college have taken initiative by organizing

various social programs to develop awareness regarding environmental

protection.

The department of Geography has been celebrating the ―World Environment

Day on 5th

of June‖ and the ―Geography Day on 14th

January‖ every

year.

The department of Geography has introduced a paper ―Natural Geography‖

for M.Sc. students, as per the syllabus of NMU, Jalgaon.

Awareness of Carbon Consumption

The College organizes programmes to make the Students and Staff aware of

pollution caused by use of vehicles & motorcycles.

In the college campus almost 90% of students are using bicycles.

The carbon consumption awareness programmes improved to minimize carbon

emission.

Electricity Consumption

Average Electricity Consumption per day was 759 Units (KWH). The consumption is

too high. To reduce electrical Energy Consumption or to keep the Consumption

Conserved, is preparing an action plan to replace phase wise the conventional electrical

appliances by the modern ones (the tube lights in academic units and street lights are

replaced by CFL and LED lights). The College has appointed ―Energy Audit

Committee‖ to monitor the electrical consumption and also to recommend to College

various ways to reduce the consumption. One of the suggestions was to use Solar

Energy based lights.

Use of Renewable Energy

The electricity consumption was too high to provide hot water to 250 girls in Ladies

Hostel. The water heater based on ―wood as fuel‖ was not cost effective, not easy to

handle, was creating carbon and polluting the environment. The College have therefore

installed (in 2014) 32 Solar panels (having cost of 4.22 Lakh) in Girls‘ Hostel and in

boys hostel.

Water Harvesting



261

The department of Chemistry is the biggest in the College. There are 6 independent

laboratories in the department. The department runs M,Sc. Inorganic Chemistry, M,Sc.

Organic Chemistry, M.Sc. Drug Chemistry and M.Phil/Ph.D. programmes. There are

highest number of students are admitted to T.Y.B.Sc. Class. To get the proper and

accurate results of Practicals, large amount of distilled water is required. To satisfy this

requirement, the College has made special arrangement to collect and store the rain

water. Rain water is collected in U type pipes from clean roof which is then channelized

to pass through pipes to reach to big storage tanks. The care is taken that the water does

not get contaminated and the water and is used for the whole year. The technique is cost

effective. No additional man power is required. The large electrical consumption

otherwise required to prepare large amount distilled water from distillation plants is

avoided and bypassed.

35. SWOC analysis of the department and Future plans:

Strengths

Well-equipped laboratories with state of the art equipment.

PG course in Microbiology presents good scope for undertaking research activities

Vertical teaching in the department

Microbiology is a basic science well connected with other applied fields like

Pharmaceuticals & fermentation industry Therefore placement opportunities are good

Weaknesses

Infrastructural additions in terms of laboratories, cold room is necessary taking into

account the increasing student strength

High Student Teacher Ratio

Opportunities

Consultancy can be given for various activities like water pollution, preliminary

studies for fermentation industry, pharmaceutical activity of bioactive compounds

etc.

Microbiology being a flourishing field of science presents various opportunities to

apply for research projects from various funding agencies

Challenges

Recognition of the departmental laboratories as recognized research centres

National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (NABL),

certification for laboratories

Future plans

Recognition as Research Centre by NMU, Jalgaon

Collaborative programmes between Department and resource persons from food and

pharmacy industries to develop skills amongst Post Graduate students.
