Student Safety & Governance

The Internal Complaints Committee (ICC) has been constituted in accordance with the Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013. The Committee provides a formal mechanism for addressing complaints relating to sexual harassment and gender-based discrimination involving female students and employees. Complaints are handled fairly, impartially and confidentially in accordance with the provisions of the Act.

National Institute of Fashion Technology (NIFT) maintains a zero-tolerance policy towards ragging and is committed to providing a safe and welcoming academic environment for all students.

The primary objective of the Anti-Ragging Committee is to eliminate ragging in all its forms from the Institute. The Committee ensures compliance with anti-ragging regulations, maintains vigilance across campus premises and promptly addresses reported incidents to safeguard the physical and psychological well-being of students. Anyone found guilty of ragging, whether on or off campus, is liable for disciplinary action in accordance with the provisions of the NIFT Academic Manual.

Students may report incidents through the Campus Anti-Ragging Committee, the Campus Anti-Ragging Helpline or the National Anti-Ragging Helpline. All complaints are treated with complete confidentiality.

The Campus Disciplinary Committee maintains discipline across the campus by promoting responsible conduct and ensuring compliance with institutional regulations. It reviews cases of misconduct, supports the implementation of NIFT's Equal Opportunity Policy and recommends disciplinary action where necessary in accordance with the NIFT Academic Manual.

The Examination Committee investigates cases of academic irregularities across the Institute. Comprising academic and administrative representatives, the Committee ensures that investigations are conducted fairly, objectively and in accordance with the provisions of the Student Rule Book and other institutional regulations.

The Hostel Committee oversees the administration, safety and functioning of residential facilities. It monitors hostel accommodation, dining facilities and student conduct to maintain a safe, hygienic and well-managed residential environment. Working closely with hostel wardens and campus administration, the Committee supports the effective management of hostel life.
