The WDC society was started under the aegis of our ex-principal Dr. Sharda Jain under Mahila Jagran Samiti in the year 1980-81. It was due to her constant support and efforts that the College has been able to carry forward the Women Development Cell till date. In an attempt to empower women, WDC has been engaged in many activities like organizing self defense camps, conducting vocational training for daughters, sisters, spouses of non teaching staff members of the college, debates, street plays, talks and other workshops on women related issues.
