Vision

Coupled with the Upanishadic utterance mentioned in the logo, the academic vision of the college is guided by the great saying of Swami Vivekananda – “Education is the manifestation of the perfection already in man.” Our vision is to promote and spread that kind of education that not only offers knowledge, but also arranges for its cultivation and flowering in a natural yet orderly fashion, leading to the development of a society founded on love, mutual respect and humane understanding. And thus to reach a stage, envisaged by Gurudev
