On Friday, the 12th February 2021, the Dept. organised a programme on Gender Equality. With the govt. of Mizoram still placing fairly strict restrictions on the number of people assembling together, it was decided to make it an Essay/Poetry Writing Competition open to English Elective and Core students in all the 1st, 3rd and 5th semesters. The student participants then read/presented their entries at a small gathering at the college conference hall.
