About CCF at IIT Roorkee

Committee for Campus Fauna (CCF) at the Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee (IITR)!

Established on January 30, 2024, the CCF is dedicated to fostering a compassionate and harmonious environment for all creatures inhabiting our campus. Our foremost objective is to ensure compliance with the statutory guidelines outlined in the Prevention of Cruelty against Animals (PCA) Act of 1960.

Under the leadership of Prof. Sandeep Bhatt, the current CCF comprises representatives from diverse segments of our campus community, including faculty, staff, and students. Together, we are committed to upholding the welfare of our campus fauna and promoting a culture of respect and empathy towards all living beings.

In alignment with our mission, the CCF collaborates closely with local animal welfare organizations and the Municipal Corporation to implement effective animal birth control programs within our campus premises. Additionally, we actively engage in awareness and sensitization campaigns to educate our campus community on the importance of fostering peaceful coexistence with the diverse fauna that call IITR home.

Join us in our endeavor to create a campus environment where every creature is valued and cared for. Together, let’s build a future where compassion and cohabitation thrive in harmony.Some of the initiatives that are under consideration are listed below-
