KAPMC

The specific forum for the Department of Sociology is named “CHINTHANA SPANDANA.”
The term “Chinthana” means “thought,” “reflection,” or “contemplation,” while “Spandana” means “response,” “reaction,” or “vibration.” Hence, CHINTHANA SPANDANA can be interpreted as a platform for thoughtful response or reflection and reaction on sociological issues.
