Equal Opportunity Cell
The Equal Opportunity Cell (EOC) functions within a well-defined framework that reinforces inclusive conduct, equitable procedures, and proactive engagement by the University. The cell is supervised by a designated committee that includes representatives from faculties, administration, students, and NGOs. It promotes diversity and inclusive practices on campus and provides disadvantaged groups with adequate opportunities. The concept of inclusivity extends to the campus community regarding equal rights and opportunities. It establishes a consistent agenda for awareness, workshops, and sensitization initiatives. The cell focuses on grievance redressal, allowing students and staff to report instances of discrimination or exclusion securely and separately, ensuring prompt and unbiased resolution actions. The EOC works with several entities of the University, including Anti-Discrimination Cells, SC/ST Cells, and Disability Support Units, to align policies and programs with UGC and national standards on equality and social justice. It frequently gathers feedback from stakeholders and conducts review sessions to evaluate the cell’s performance and enhance its effectiveness. The effective administration of the Equal Opportunity Cell ultimately hinges on the principles of fairness, empathy, and the creation of an environment where every individual feels appreciated, valued, and empowered as an equal.
