LUCKNOW: For the first time in 159 years of its existence, a woman was appointed as manager and secretary of Lucknow Christian College (LCC) and Lucknow Christian Training College (LCTC).
As per the college records till date, no woman has ever held the two posts.
Talking to TOI, the new manager, Anima Rishal Singh, said the first thing on her cards is to conduct a financial audit of matters in which financial anomalies have been alleged.
“I will ensure transparency at every step, an audit of all financial matters will be held and then my second priority will be to go for NAAC re-accreditation. The college had an A grade till 2004. We were the first college in the state to get a NAAC grade and after its expiry, the re-evaluation has not been done till date,” said the manager.
She said also will make efforts to clear teachers’ promotion and to fill teaching posts lying vacant for many years. The college library will be revamped and more books will be added. “We will be reviving our postgraduate courses of MCom, MSc and MPEd,” she added.
