Arun Verma, principal, said, “We cannot be insensitive at a time when some families have lost their earning members. So we have decided that any students losing the only earning member of the family, shall be admitted in our three-degree college free, offering Arts, Science and Commerce.”

Around 10 such students have already approached the college for admission.
