Know More..."The instantaneous aim of the education is to prepare the students for their actual life. Education in its real sense is development within and action outside. The core of it is not transmitting information but transforming human personality. This, as exemplified by Sri Aurobindo involves physical, vital, mental, psychological and spiritual aspects. Echoing similar sentiments Swami Vivekananda considered education essential for the entire universe".

My Native village is called Yalia, which is situated in the valleys between the Arabian Sea and The Western Ghats in Southern India. Western Ghats are mountain ranges, rich in tropical forest, running parallel to the west coast of Southern India.
If I turn pages of my memories, I can vividly remember my days in the college. The conducive ambience of the college inspired me to be a book lover. How could I forget to thank my teachers and the librarian who genuinely motivated me to learn and opened my eyes to see the world through books?
