In the effort to make Ramanujan College a strong kernel of gender sensitization, the Women Development Cell (WDC) was constituted in November 2016 under the able convener-ship of Dr. Madhu Batta. The Cell has both the faculty and students of the College as its members and works with an aim to create a gender sensitized community within campus as well as in the society. It has been organizing varied academic, technical, medical, cultural and social events for the upliftment of women and spreading the real importance of gender equality in the society through College students.
