The Gender Audit Report for Acharya Prafulla Chandra College (2018-19 to 2022-23) highlights the institution's commitment to gender equity and empowerment. The audit reveals a balanced gender profile among students, with a slight increase in male students over the years. Female students have a higher representation in arts courses compared to science, and efforts are made to address gender imbalances through various initiatives.

Significant achievements include the implementation of the "Tejaswini" self-defense course for female students and the active role of the Women’s Cell in promoting gender awareness. The installation of sanitary napkin vending machines and the expansion of CCTV coverage enhance female students' safety and well-being. An 80-bed ladies' hostel further supports female students from distant regions. Legal and health awareness programs contribute to overall empowerment and knowledge.

Progress towards gender equity is evident through improved safety measures, skill development programs, and a supportive campus environment. The college's efforts in creating an inclusive atmosphere underscore its dedication to fostering gender equality and supporting all students effectively.
