Hence, from the information gathered from the above data,  the available lecture   halls/rooms,  course outline,  seats, course  book/ materials,  charts, diagrams, overhead projectors  and audio cassettes are sufficiently utilized  whereas  due to the fact that library facilities, shapes and model and language  laboratories are not available, the question of utilization is  out of it.
