The Botanical Garden of the college dates back to 1954. As systematic Biology had a key role in earlier syllabi, the garden was useful to students of Botany who had to submit 300 herbarium specimens through indoor and outdoor collections. Though taxonomy lost its relevance in due course, the entry of advanced subjects like Conservation biology, Environmental Biology and Phytogeography have made the garden all the more relevant today. So the Botanical Garden has been renovated under the scheme of Minister of Environment and Forests and reopened for the students. |
