2. Introduction
Change is resisted and any new thing will also be resisted. The principal faced more resistance
than support - from bottom to top. Thus the last one year has been a year of struggle. The challenge was
to introduce some change and improvement, but there was a strong resistance. The existing system was
firmly rooted and had their own supporters and hence no improvement could be implemented. In this
annual report, I present some of the important events and incidents for seeking further guidance from the
higher authorities. In terms of quantity, the results are improving. The total enrollment of the college
reached 900 from 704 (this would have been far more, had we adopted a more systematic and better
admission system). However, in terms of quality, we are far behind from any standard. Most of the
students are irregular. The college is a hindi medium college and even BBA and BCA students study in
Hindi medium. Some faculty members can't teach in English and hence even professional courses are run
in Hindi medium. There is gross indiscipline and tution culture. Most of the students don’t even know the
names of their teachers and even principal. Those students who come are instigated to organize protests or
gherao of the principal by some anti-principal groups. For the next year, I have requested to the secretary
to give advertisement in newspaper demanding applications from faculty members who can teach in
English medium to solve the problem.
Academics:
The faculty members take lots of leaves, thus on an average, there would be 3-4 persons on leave
every day. Due to this the principal himself took 3-4 extra classes to replace those on leave. The principal
tried to appoint a teaching assistant to help the principal in this task, but it was not approved by higher
authorities and hence there was no solution. A few students of M.Com voluntarily helped the principal by
taking some vacant classes of the students. There was no proper system of attendance & reporting, hence
the principal introduced one system for daily information system, but the new system was discarded by
the higher authorities and no improvements could be made.
Regular Protests by Students : -
Throughout the academic year, some students created problems for the principal. Almost every day these
students (most of them were from computer science department) would come and raise their demands.
These demands are as under :
a. A.C. is not working
b. Computers are not working
c. UPS is not working
d. Computer practical facility is not available due to poor computers
Once the problems were solved, again the students would come up. Probably the real reason lies
somewhere else. Even when there are hardly 10 students, they come up with these kinds of demands.
Most of these students are from computer science department and they were instigated by some persons
to go and protest against the principal (as told by some of them). They wasted away most of the time of
the principal. They would raise demand, raise slogans, send SMS and give threats. They would not attend
any class by the principal even. The students of computer science department gave missed calls at odd
time, gave SMS from bogus names (like they used the names of Prof. S.C. Jain). They gave threatening
SMS to the principal like : "You are spreading casteism in the college, we will see to you" or "You have
done frauds in IMS and now you are doing frauds in Jain College". The principal was constantly harassed
by the students of department of computer science. Ultimately, when they were caught, they expressed
innocence. Upon inquiry, it was found that probably some senior faculty members were involved in
creating all these problems for the principal, the students were doing it because they were told to do so.
One student, Mr. Imran Khan's SIM was misused probably by someone from the college family itself for
sending such SMS. One senior faculty member was reported to have told a junior faculty member that we
are going to destablise the principal, otherwise there will be problems for us. It has come to the
knowledge that similar treatment was given to the past principals also. On occasions, computers were
damaged, mouse was stolen by un-identified persons (probably some one close to our college). Whether it
was the decision to change college timings or other similar decisions, there are some persons, who oppose
from behind and remain un-identified. There are probably some persons, who instigate other staff to
2

3. approach the top management directly against the principal and create ill-will against the principal. For
some persons, internal politics takes precedence over academics. This is damaging for the college in the
long run.
Tution culture of the college
The tution culture is wide spread in our college. In computer science, difficult papers are given to junior
faculty members and students are told that they would not be taught properly, hence the students are then
asked indirectly to go for tuitions. Some senior faculty members provide tuitions for these papers (which
they don’t take in the college). Some commerce faculty members also devote themselves to tuitions. In
order to divert the attention, some people start rumours that even the principal is busy in taking tuitions
and is diverting students to his home (which is not true). In order to rebuild college, it is necessary to take
only those faculty members who take oath not to take any tution of the students of the college and not to
motivate students for tuitions.

The largest university examination in the history of Jain College
Up to 924 students participated in a single sitting in the University examinations. This is the
largest number of students participating in a single sitting in Sri Jain P.G. College. The credit for fair and
disciplined conduct of the examination goes to the authorities at University (particularly to the Vice
Chancellor and controller of the Examination) and the Examination Cell of Sri Jain P.G. College (Prof.
S.L. Ranga, Dr. A.K. Mathur, Dr. A.K. Sharma Dr. N. Binnani, Dr. Ajay Joshi, Dr. Ashok Sharma, Dr.
Satish Mehta, Prof. M.L. Lunia, Dr. R.S. Vyas, Mr. S.L. Kochar and team). However, the faculty
members from department of computer science didn’t cooperate and refused to give examination duties
on some or other excuse. However, these same faculty members readily gave their duties in CA
examinations.
Seminars
Seminars create a truly academic environment. BBA students gave many seminars this year. This
was possible due to sincere efforts by Ms. Monika Goyal (faculty in BCA and BBA). However, inspite of
repeated requests, no seminars were started in department of computer science. They infact opposed
participation of their students in seminars and ultimately all such seminars were banned by the higher
authorities.
FDP Programmes
FDP programmes help faculty members to learn new subjects. We have sent many of our faculty
members to FDP programmes organized by ECB and other institutions. These faculty members were sent
on FDP on the condition that they would present a seminar on the topic that they studied in the FDP
programme. Following faculty members participated in the FDP programmes (however, none gave any
seminar) :
1. Mr. Rafi Ahmed
2. Mr. Hanuman Khatore
3. Ms. Minakshi Bothra
4. Ms. Pratima Bothra
Scholarships
There are lots of scholarships for poor students. Due to lack of proper information (as most of the students
are irregular, they don’t come to know about the various schemes) most of the students are not able to
apply for these. An effort was made to help the students. The college committee consisted of the
following :
1. Mr. M.L. Lunia (couldn’t give enough time due to illness of his mother)
2. Mr. Hanuman Khatore (however, he refused to work after 1.15 pm hence, we had to ask Prof.
Satish Mehta to replace him).

We also started PG students consortium (premier institutions like IIMs run PG students
consortium to help the PG students in developing their research aptitude), however, none of the faculty
members from computer science participated in the programme, and it was resisted by them (they
complained about this to the higher authorities), ultimately due to orders by the higher authorities, the
consortium had to be abandoned.
Examination system
We have a very poor internal examination system. Periodical examinations were started in BBA.
In spite of repeated requests, no internal examinations were conducted in BCA. Ideally, the internal
examiners are decided by principal and students are not aware about internal examiners. Ideally, external
examiners are also invited by the principal. However, in our college, only Mr. Rafi Ahmed and Mr.
Hanuman Khatore handle all these work. Even internal examiners are appointed by these two persons.
Till date, the principal has not yet received practical projects undertaken by students of computer science
(which are supposed to be the property of the college). The principal doesn’t have the latest updated time-
table of the college.
Co-curricular activities
There are many extra-curricular activities are being organized. We provide facilities for Table Tennis,
Chess, Base Ball,Softball, Boxing, Cricket, Weight Lifting, Basketball, and other sports. The college selects teams
of the students on the basis of screening tests which are conducted in the month of August and these teams
participate in the inter-university tournaments. There are common rooms for boys and girls (separate). The common
room has facilities like Chess, Table Tennis, Carrom etc.
Our students participated in University tournaments in Cricket, Table Tennis, Chess, Bollyball,
Badmington, Softball, Baseball, Boxing, Swimming, Cycling. The college was the winner in the University
tournaments in Chess. The College won Bronze medal in the University Tourmanemts in Boxing (Mr. Vinod Punia,
55 Kg category) Ram Niwas Jat of BCA III got selected in the University Team in the year 2010-11. In Baseball,
Mr. Ram Chandra Tard got selected in the University team and played in all India inter-university tournament In
Chess, Akash Rajpurohit of BBAII played in inter-university level. In Soft Ball, Bharat Maru played in inter-
university level. In Swimming, Chakresh of BCA III played in inter-university level.
NCC
N.C.C. unit was started in 1958. There are seats for 107 cadets in our college, out of which 33%
seats are reserved for girls. The cadets have to complete at least one camp in the first year. They can
appear in B certificate in the first year itself. In the second year, the cadets can appear in C certificate
after completing at least two camps and B certificate. The NCC cadets can participate in Youth Exchange
5

6. programmes and visit abroad. They can also participate in Republic Day parade. The cadets get
preference in many services and there are reservations for them in Army (if they fulfill minimum
requirements like C Certificate etc.)
Major Dr. Ashok K. Sharma has been given the Dy. D.G. NCC award. He has also received the
Group Commander Award in 2010. He had earlier received Collector's award for outstanding
contribution. Senior Under Officer Mr. Ved Prakash Gujar participated in the Republic Day parade and
represented India as senior under officer on 26 January 2010 at Rajpath. Cadet Under Officer Mukesh
Kumar has participated in 18 camps and has been recognized for his commitment by the NCC. The NCC
Unit of the college conducted Blood Donation Camp on 5 July 2010. The cadets of the college
participated in the Special National Integration Camp at Jaisalmer, Army Attachment camp, Combined
Annual Training Camp at Bikaner and Mt. Abu, Sirohi and Pali during 2010-11. The cadets of the college
also participated in The Resident Parade organized at Karni Singh Stadium in 2010-11.
.
N.S.S.
Our college has two NSS units sanctioned. There can be upto 200 students in NSS units. We have
adopted following slums for development :
a. Gopeshwar Basti, Gangashahr
b. Kheteshwar Basti, Gangashahr
During 2010 -11, the college organized tree plantation activities in collaboration with the
Rajasthan Patrika. This was undertaken by the NSS unit of the college. District Collector Dr. Prithvi and
Vice Chancellor Dr. Gangaram Jakhar were the chief guests on the occasion.
The NSS unit of the college conducted a workshop on prevention of infanticide in collaboration
with SURE. The students of NSS unit participated and won prizes in the various contests organized by
different NSS units of different colleges. Mr. Adar Golchha won the essay writing contest organized by
inter-college NSS units. Next year, we wish to use our NSS group for beautification of our college also.
Cultural programmes
Mega Dandia show was organized in October 2011, in which over 10 professional groups
presented their presentations. Mr. Mukesh Acharya provide voluntary services as anchor. Some students
of the college namely Mr. Himanshu and Mr. Vishal Rao gave brilliant performances. Over 2000 students
and guests participated in the programme. Dr. Shreyans Jain provided free guidance to the students about
technical aspects of the programme. Sri Loon Karan Chhajer provided free guidance about media
management for this programme. Only five faculty members helped in supervison of this giant
programme (Dr. Anil Sharma, Mr. Rajendra Choudnary, Mr. Manoj Sethia, Mr. Nemichand Chhimpa and
Mr. Mukul). Dr. A.K. Mathur, Dr. A jay Joshi, and Dr. R.S. Vyas also visited the programme. In spite of
requests, no other faculty member came forward to help.
Annual sports programme was organized, which was not well managed, hence only a few
students could participate in the programme.

Future Plans & Suggestions for the future
I see a very bright future of our college under the guidance of Sh. Vijay Kochar, Sh. N.C. Kochar,
Sh. Narendra Kochar and Sh. Tansukh Das ji Banthia. Some of our ongoing major projects are
construction of badminton hall, establishment of CS study centre, setting up of an ultra modern computer
centre, IGNOU study centre and media centre. However, we must remember that good people are central
to the growth of the organization and people are more important than the physical hardware and
infrastructure.
New departments and centers at the horizon include the Departments of IT, department of
journalism, department of CA / CS / ICWA studies, department of distance education (IGNOU), so that
the students get more than one degree. We are also going to start regular classes of CS which will also be
another feather to our cap. We are going to conduct one month rigorous orientation programme in the
beginning of the year and one month rigorous placement programme at the end of the year.
I am sure that all these facilities will together deliver comprehensiveness and prestige to our Institute
and set the standards very high indeed. I visualize only a few colleges in the country comparable to our
college and the credit will go undoubtedly, to the vision of the managing committee and hard work and
commitment by all the human resource of our esteemed college who are and will continue discharging
their duties with sincerity and vigor. We must have a systematic, transparent and clean examination
system, which should be supervised by a competent team. We should periodically invite eminent faculty
members and guest faculties (including senior faculty members from E.C.B., C.E.T, ICAI and other such
institutions here in Bikaner)
We must start following awards:
1. Awards for best attendance - every month
2. Award for outstanding class presentation
3. Award for the best seminar presentation
4. Award for the best performance in Internal tests
5. Award for the best class representative
6. Award for the best college manager (for role in keeping the college green and clean. )
7. Award for the best entry in college notice board
8. Awards for the best entry in college newsletter and magazines
9. Awards for the best speech on the occasion of Republic Day, Independence Day and other such
occasions
10. Award for the best class (on the basis of overall performance of the entire class)
11. Awards for the best committee performance / student club (on the basis of the team performance
of the student club)
12. Award for the best event management (for managing the events on behalf of the college, student
union and student clubs)
Let us resolve once again to make our college the best in our country. We have to improve academic
ambiance, conduct more academic programmes like seminars, symposia, quizzes etc. Intellectual
discussions, role clarity, academic debates and collaborative work culture are central to the development
of a good college. We have to start English medium classes, which will enable students to prepare for the
corporate world. We have to undertake office automation and library automation. We also have to
encourage our faculty members to start writing articles, giving seminars, and start some serious academic
programmes. We also have to create a truly student friendly environment, where politics and back-biting
are removed. We have to encourage our faculty members to participate in programmes like PG students
consortium (which was abandoned this year) so that they can become true academicians. We must
7

8. encourage students to take up useful projects. Practical projects should be for the requirements of
corporate world.
