Grievance Redressal Cell

It is good to air a grievance rather than to keep it bottled up. To realize the primary needs of the students and staff, and secure civil liberties for everybody, a Grievance Redressal Cell has been constituted in Hajee Karutha Rowther Howdia College. The cell attempts to address genuine problems and complaints of students whatever be the nature of the problem. The Grievance Redressal Cell convenes meetings periodically and takes steps to redress the grievance.

Functions of Grievance Redressal Cell

          The function of the cell is to look into the complaints lodged by any student in the complaint boxes, and judge its merit. The cases are attended promptly on receipt of written grievances from the students. The committee formally meets to review all cases, prepares statistical reports about the number of cases received, attended to the number of pending cases, if any, which require direction and guidance from the higher authorities. The college assures students that once a complaint is made, it will be treated with sensitivity and confidentiality. Suggestions/ complaint boxes are installed in different parts of the campus, in which the students, who want to remain anonymous, put in writing their grievances and their suggestions for improving the Academics / Administration in the college.

Procedure for Lodging Complaint

• The students may feel free to put up a grievance in writing and drop it in the Grievance boxes placed at conspicuous locations
