Suggestion about This college by our team:
Since the placement criteria of this college is really good i can assure you that this is a job assured colleges. The extra curricular coaching is really excellent. But as a student i just want to tell is that this college is little bit strict in its administration. Basically all the private colleges are strict but when compared to all this college some what more strict. Actually parents to like that since they dont want to spoil their children life by joining them in worst college where the disciple is totally absent. So friends dont worry about the strict administration but just utilize the sources available over there and develop in your life.
