Woman Grievance Cell

Women’s Grievance Committee

A Women’s Grievance Committee has been constituted in the Institute as a supportive and preventive mechanism to promote a safe, respectful, inclusive, and equitable environment for women students, faculty, and staff.

The Committee provides a platform for women to raise grievances and concerns relating to gender-based discrimination, harassment, unequal treatment, or other issues affecting their dignity and well-being within the Institute. It aims to ensure that such concerns are addressed with sensitivity, fairness, confidentiality, and due consideration.

The Committee also works towards creating awareness among women regarding their rights, responsibilities, and available grievance-redressal mechanisms. It functions in accordance with applicable guidelines and directions issued by the University Grants Commission (UGC) and other competent regulatory authorities.
