I Sukrithi

The department has an Economic Association named “Sukrithi”. It brings together the students of the department and acts as a platform for various academic as well as non-academic activities. Sukrithi is led by a team of students and is facilitated by the teachers. It aims at the holistic development of the students and assists them in the transformation from caterpillars to butterflies. Sukrithi is an umbrella consortium of other associations such as Charchavedi, Bhoomi, Dharma and Samskriti.

  • Charchavedi: This wing provides the students an opportunity to make them aware of the world around them through discussions on various topics. Charchavedi organises weekly discussions and debates on various topics. Charchavedi has three other groups under its realm, namely, Economic Concepts Group, Current Affairs Group and Book and Movie Review Group.
  • Bhoomi: This is the environmental wing of our department. It conducts awareness programs on environmental protection. Workshops and exhibitions on environment were also organised. Gardening, Cleaning and waste management are other activities organised by Bhoomi.
  • Dharma: Dharma is the social service wing of Sukrithi. Dharma instils social-commitment and responsibility in our students. Here students serve the society through various programmes
