5. Evidence of Success
The convener of the respective clubs and associations along with student committees
arrange activities which facilitates better understanding the topics in their syllabus.
For Example:


Mudra Club: Presentation were made on topics like Primary & Secondary
market, Capital market, Financial Services & E-banking which made them doresearch on these topics and learn them through the activity. Through ‗Stockdirect‘ by ICICI direct the students of Mudra club learnt stock market operations
through simulated trading environment.

Chanakya Niti: Events like Case Tantra and Business Mantra made students
understand case studies and topics like entrepreneurship which helps them inacademics where case study is a compulsory question worth 15 marks. Students
through organizing and handling events learn to plan and execute strategy which
improves skills as a manager.

Students of Tech Wizard have upgraded their skills through Android
Workshops. Students have also developed website for intercollegiate fest
‗Khwaish‘ and learned to do Search Engine Optimization (SEO) for better
visibility, preparing promotional videos of college for fest and annual report indigital form for annual day.

Students of Media World through various visits like Doordarshan, Studios learn
practical aspects of their syllabus. Also, through workshops on Photography,
creative writing they develop their skills and understand theory better. In
Practical implementation they have been handling photos / videography of allcollege events, preparing write-ups of all events and coordinating with print
media for its publications, prepare artwork in coral draw for banners, posters.



easily.

NAAC – Self Study Report 2017 (1st Cycle)234

Chandrabhan Sharma College of Arts, Science and CommerceStudents from these clubs and associations have started participating in National& International conferences and present and publish papers. Example: Studentsof Tally Club, Mudra and Chanakya Niti have presented their papers inconferences organized by University of Mumbai.



Through events under Clubs & Associations students have developed
entrepreneurial skills and understanding of finance, marketing, operations, IT andhuman resources which have helped them carry out events independently and be
future ready. Students working in intercollegiate fest ‗Khwaish‘ generate financesfrom corporates and industry through sponsorships.

6. Problems Encountered and Resources RequiredFor organizing events under clubs and associations the entire cost is incurred by
the college and the trust has to bear all the finances.



Organizing such events require commitment of time on the part of students andfaculties beyond their normal working hours.



Coordinating and inviting experts from industry, University and other colleges.

Best Practice 2
1. Title of the Practice: Swachh Kanjurmarg Railway Station Abhiyaan.
2. Goal:

To encourage and inculcate holistic perspective of Selfless Service to the society

To serve as an example for others by taking initiative to promote hygiene &commuter convenience for the betterment and the well-being of the citizens

To reach out to the community around the college in areas such as health,environment and social issues



To provide value based education and make the students responsible citizens.

3. The Context
 As part of the Swachh Bharat Abhiyaan the college adopted Kanjurmarg
Railway Station for Cleanliness and Beautification for 3 years. The college islocated in Powai and the nearest railway station is Kanjurmarg. This station isused by majority of the students, faculties, IITians and many nearby residents.
Thus the college decided to adopt the railway station.

NAAC – Self Study Report 2017 (1st Cycle)

235

Chandrabhan Sharma College of Arts, Science and Commerce Challenges faced: The station is managed by Central Railways and any
decisions related to station adoption have to be approved by Deputy Railway
Manager (DRM) and Railway Protection Force (RPF). The college had to go
through extensive documentation and permissions for the adoption process.
 Lack of awareness on cleanliness and hygiene among the commuters was alsoa challenge The area outside the railway station was dirty and lacked greenery Getting cooperation from railway‘s staff was also a challenge
4. The Practice

The College adopted Kanjurmarg Railway Station for a period of 3 years. Everyweek students and faculties from NSS unit visit the Kanjurmarg Railway Station
for cleanliness drive.



The College inaugurated this initiative on 15th August, 2015 with flag hoisting
ceremony and street play depicting the importance of cleanliness and rail safety.



The college students through this drive have inculcated the practice of community
service to repay the social debt.



Garbage bins were placed to ensure that people do not litter on the station.



The garden outside the station is also cleaned & maintained regularly by thecollege students.



The college planted saplings in the area to initiate greenery

The college Trustees donated six stainless steel benches and dustbins forcommuter‘s comfort and cleanliness at the station. Benches and dustbins were
installed at newly constructed platform and also at the old platform.

The entire Kanjurmarg railway station has been given delightful look and several
large boards have been put up with the messages of cleanliness and appealing
commuters to keep the station clean. The scenic and soothing colour look with atheme design resonates the entire surrounding.



Through media publicity in leading and local newspapers awareness on
cleanliness on Kanjurmarg Railway Station was created. Local cooperators andNGO‘s were invited to participate and contribute for the said cause. On behest ofcollege NGO‘s like Rotary and Corporates like JLT became part of this campaign.

5. Evidence of Success
The success of the initiative is evident from the following images:

The local residents, Station staff, Corporators and government officials, media,
corporates and NGO‘s appreciated the initiative and started consciously
contributing to this cause. Letters of appreciation from commuters and people ofthe vicinity was a moral victory for the college management, staff and students.



The college also received appreciation during its presentation to the DRM IndianRailways for its successful execution of station adoption.

6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required
The following problems were encountered:Financial Burden: The cost for implementing Swachh Kanjurmarg Railway
Station Abhiyaan was totally borne by the management.

NAAC – Self Study Report 2017 (1st Cycle)

237

Chandrabhan Sharma College of Arts, Science and CommerceTime Constraints: The initiative under Swachh Kanjurmarg Railway Station
Abhiyaan was carried out every Saturday since its inauguration. However, due toany unavoidable circumstances like public holidays falling on a Saturday thefaculties and students were flexible to carry out the initiative on any day of the
week.



Creating of Awareness: As lakhs of commuters travel everyday to and fro fromthe station, it was difficult to spread awareness on a daily basis. Hence to createawareness the college displayed hoardings on the railway station at prominentplaces.
