The plan for SC/ST Cell for universities is adopted by the UGC in the XII Plan (2012-2017). ST PAULS COLLEGE affiliated with Bangalore University established the same in the year 2021. The cell functions to ensure that students from these communities have equal access to opportunities and facilities extended to other students.
