The infrastructure is great for all kinds of sports and all the labs are state of the art. There are basketball and football courts in almost all the hostels and there is a student activities center which is perfectly maintained.

The hostels for freshmen are pretty good but the quality deteriorates as the hostels get older. But all hostels have aqua guards, washing machines and common rooms with plenty of games and other facilities.
