Through her involvements, she got the chance to interact with professors across a lot of branches in their official capacities. Some of the professors are:

• G.K. Pothal Sir: He became the head of the cultural department when my senior was in the institute. He was a very approachable person, which cannot be said for most professors in the college. He was always imposing and always addressed the issues of the students. He even guided the students in the literary fest Anweshan.

He made sure to compensate for the missed classes for completion of the syllabus. He is a very disciplined member of the faculty.
