| Govt. M.A.M Post Graduate College building has an imposed "facade" evenly balanced right and left wings emanating from the central dome - capped entrance which bears a faint resemblance to the Gothic architecture. A science block, earth-science block, a canteen complex with sports hall, a hostel block and a new Library block stand apart from the main structure. A few Chinar trees, a rarity in this region, cover the foreground. Majestically tall Eucalyptus trees, standing as sentinels on either side of the approach road, offer a guard of honour to all and sundry high and low. The college is affiliated to the University of Jammu. |
