The annual observance of the International Day of Persons with Disabilities was proclaimed in 1992, by the United Nations General Assembly resolution 47/3. The observance of the Day aims to promote an understanding of disability issues and mobilize support for the dignity, rights, and well-being of persons with disabilities. It also seeks to increase awareness of gains to be derived from the integration of persons with disabilities in every aspect of political, social, economic, and cultural life.

One of the strategic objectives of the university is to increase the visibility and impact of the research output. It is on this basis that the Library Department has organized an online training on the above research platforms on 8th December 2021; 10 AM – 12 PM.
