During his period, he managed to change the tiles, bathroom, more wall fan was added in the rooms, new windows and so on. But the most important fact was 2 mega hostels were constructed having seven storied buildings, which stays head high in Jamshedpur.

I would describe the faculty of our college as professional, friendly and encouraging. When i started my classes in first semester i had trouble understanding Hindi as i was a foreign student.

Besides that in my other activities such as getting through my admission, scholarship activity she helped me a great deal.
