Ours is a three shift college. The college runs a morning shift, a day shift and an evening shift (which is an extension of the day shift) the college in its entirety is governed by one GB which is the Apex body (Three elected teachers and one elected/ selected staff from the NTS are members of the GB the Principal conducts the GB as the secretary under the able guidance of a President who is always an eminent person from the locality). For the sake of better administration two senior teachers are appointed as morning and evening in-charge.

A strong and functional IQAC is operational. A number of cells and clubs function under the direct control of the IQAC, for example, the Grievance cell, the Anti-Ragging Cell, and the Counseling Cell. A duly formed Internal Complaints Committee is in place to safeguard the interest of the girl students and female staff. A secretary is a selected/elected from the teaching staff to function as TCS (Teachers' Council Secretary).

A number of statutory academic and auxiliary committees ensure smooth running of the institution.

Committees like HRMS, PFMS, AISHE, NIRF are formed in accordance with the Government guidelines.
