discipline is to help the students to develop their potentialities in an orderly way, to promote a
healthy relation between the teachers and the taught as also to preserve a peaceful academic atmosphere
essential for study. Love is always the guiding principle and the basis for obedience, though strict
discipline is also insisted upon.
- All students must regulate their lives according to the prescribed routine for study, work and prayer.
They will have to keep to the simple standard of living maintained in the hostel and do their own works
themselves as far as practicable and be regular and punctual in all matters.
- It is a serious offence to be absent from a class while being present in the hostel unless a student
is physically unfit or is specially permitted by the Superintendent/Principal.

and the hostel on the reopening date of the college from the very first period after any vacation
or holidays.
- Students are allowed to go home during long vacations namely, the Summer Recess, the Puja and the

nobody is allowed to stay outside after dusk.
- Students recommended by the superintendents may be permitted by the Principal/ Vice-Principal to stay
in the hostel after the results of the Test Examination have been announced.

which may not always be assigned, are also liable to be removed from the college. Any student, not
conforming to the norms of the college and the hostel, is liable to disciplinary measures ranging from
fines to expulsion.
