The magnificent objective of the Institution, as its best practices, is to bring the broken desks and benches which were made from iron and wooden materials back to the usage for the benefits of the students again. Also, the Institution, with its exemplary act of recasting the materials which were of no use and worthless into the refurbished and brand-new desks and benches, sets certain traits for the students successfully so that they could as well cultivate the sense of belonging of the public properties. Many laboratory equipments like pipettes and burettes were made out of the wooden wastage and put in into use by science Departments.
As the college is located on the very shore of the Bay of Bengal, it is susceptible that the iron desks and benches besides being damaged it also have got rusted due to the gust of wind from sea throughout the year. Out of the strenuous and undeterred hard work, some 300 sets of five seaters, from the scrapes of iron were put into use facilitating a better teaching and learning process to a next level.
No Government College located across the State has ever taken this initiative to bringing the waste into worth the practice and reusable objects as this Institution has done as part of its Best Practices.
Also, it not an extolling but worth mentioning that in addition to Lecterns and Teachers’ table some 200 sets of wooden desks and benches were revived out of the heap of wooden planks. No doubt that these wooden Tables and benches would have the value of ancient artefact as they are recast from pure teak wood of the distant past.
The institution in its Herculean task of converting the worthless waste into the objects inestimable in worth in terms of its heritage values behind, has had certain formidable challenges like legal, financial and institutional factors which needed to be amicably addressed on its execution.
As this is a Government Arts college, due permission legally from the Government has been sought before taking up this remarkable work.
In addition to the legal procedures, there has been, yet another issue called financial constraint. With the amount granted from the Parent- Teachers Association, the renovation of wooden and iron desks and benches from the state of heap of scrapes to the state of artwork ever admirable has been successfully accomplished.
