The subsequent batch of students adapted to online classes which helped to carry out the teaching-learning process effectively even during lockdown. The final score has been evaluated on the basis of term I and term II. Teachers and students have worked hard to compensate for the learning loss during Covid-19 outbreak. As the students have taken external exams, the result shows their actual performance.”
