Women Cell & Grievance Cell (WC & GC)
Constituted in compliance with Supreme Court directives to promote gender parity, safeguard the dignity of women, and resolve grievances for female students and employees at CIT Kokrajhar.
About Women Cell & Grievance Cell (WC & GC)
The Women Cell at Central Institute of Technology Kokrajhar was first established in November 2015 in accordance with directives from the Supreme Court of India, with the solemn mandate of safeguarding and advancing the interests, dignity, and safety of women within the CIT community.
A reconstituted executive body for the Women Cell was officially formed on August 30, 2024, with a three-year tenure (2024–2027). Simultaneously, an integrated Grievance Cell was established to broaden the institutional scope and provide an accessible, confidential forum for resolving employee and student concerns.
