Acharya Narendra Dev College has implemented various initiatives to foster a multicultural and inclusive environment among its students and staff. The college is actively working to promote the rich cultural and linguistic heritage of students from the North-East (N-E) through a dedicated committee led by a Nodal Officer, who is also a faculty member.

The North-East Cell (NEC) is committed to making ANDC a truly multicultural and inclusive institution by organizing a range of activities throughout the year. It serves as a platform for regular discussions on issues and concerns specific to North-East students, ensuring they are well-represented within the college. These concerns may encompass various challenges, such as adjusting to life in Delhi and meeting the demands of college life. Additionally, the forum aims to raise awareness and celebrate the unique and vibrant cultures of the North-East region. The role of a NEC @ ANDC, particularly in the context of educational institutions or governmental bodies in India, is to address the unique needs and issues of students and citizens from the North Eastern states and also, to include the diversity of the region by promotion of the regional culture and heritage.. Here are some of the primary functions and responsibilities of NEC:

a) Support and Guidance: Provide academic, administrative, and personal support to students from North Eastern states.

b) Cultural Integration: Promote cultural exchange and integration by organizing cultural events, festivals, and activities that celebrate the rich heritage of the North East.

f) Liaison and Representation: Act as a liaison between the institution or body and the North Eastern community, ensuring their concerns and needs are represented and addressed.

g) Scholarships and Financial Aid: Provide information and assistance regarding scholarships, financial aid, and other resources available specifically for North Eastern students.

h) Career Guidance: Offer career counselling, job placement assistance, and networking opportunities to help North Eastern students achieve their professional goals.
