Every month Every month, the Anti-Drug Committee of our college systematically conducts inspections across all departments on a rotational basis. The primary objective of this activity is to ensure that students maintain a drug-free lifestyle and campus environment. During the inspection, committee members closely monitor student behavior and interact with them to identify any potential involvement in drug consumption or related activities.
In cases where any student is found to be involved in such activities, strict disciplinary action — including suspension or termination — will be taken in accordance with institutional policies and regulations. Conversely, when no such cases are reported, the committee utilizes the opportunity to conduct awareness sessions and counseling programs. These sessions emphasize the harmful effects, psychological impacts, and social consequences of drug use, thereby reinforcing the importance of a healthy and responsible lifestyle among students.
Through these continuous monitoring and awareness initiatives, the Anti-Drug Committee aims to foster a safe, disciplined, and drug-free campus environment.
