INTRODUCTION

Canteen is very important facility for the students through which a better standard of food
and refreshments can be obtained when compare to the make shift hotels that spring up
around colleges. Moreover, through these canteens wholesome food and refreshments can be
provided to the students at reasonable prices so as to make available to them a balanced and
hygienic food. This is likely to improve their health and efficiency. Canteens also serve as
places where students can need informally and refresh themselves by a relaxing conversation.
The canteens are also instruments of social change as the students belonging to different caste
will have to sit at the same table and take their food. Thus, a canteen can help in improving
the morale of the students. Further, the availability of food stuffs within the college area
reduces botheration and saves time of the students; otherwise they will have to go out of the
college. In this context canteen of Post Graduate Government College, Sector11, Chandigarh
has been observed. “Besides good environment and ventilation, adequate dining
accommodation is an essential requirement for the students.
