Innovative Programmes designed and implemented 1. Designed a programme ‘Rayat Science Olympiad’ for Research Talent Search in Rayat Shikshan Santha and implemented by Rayat Shikshan Santha for 8th std. students. Nearly 4000 students appear for a screening exam. Hundred of them are trained to carry out a research project and 50 of them are given scholarship for four years. 2. First Women’s team for removal of superstitions is trained and the team performed in 20 villages. 3. Mobile Laboratory for secondary schools as an extension activity and innovative learning programme; a mobile laboratory is launched; a group of B. Sc students run this program under which a four hour package is provided to the school in which students perform two experiments with their own, a lecture a quiz and a science feature film is shown to them. This programme improves the communication of B. Sc students and it increases the interest of school students in doing science. 4. Library for Slum children: College has opened the doors of library for the society to develop the reading culture in early age 102 slum children in the age group 10 to 16 are given the membership of the college library. Books of Rs. 20000 have been purchased. the Member children come every Saturday to exchange their books. 5. A Library for working women and senior citizens: House wives and working women in slum area of Sadar bazar and the members of Mano Yuva Senior Citizen Society are allowed to the member of college library by submitting some deposit; they can borrow the book from library. 23 women and 25 senior citizens are members of College library 6. Audio and Video Library: Important definitions, poems stories, etc. are recorded by the teachers and kept on library computer; students can download the material on their mobile and listen at their leisure time.4000 ebooks, 50 audio books and 50 videos are made available in the library. 7. Zero Effluent Institute: The management of drainage and other effluent water is a big problem; the effluent water is filtered and provided to a garden. A banana plantation of 100 saplings and 5000 sq. ft. Indrayani rice cultivation is done in the College Campus. 8. Vruksha Sharda Matruvan: The activity is launched to promote the emotional intelligent among the students and to pay homage to motherhood. Any person can donate Rs. 2000 and plant a tree in Matru-van and college takes the guarantee to conserve it. Each tree bears a name plate of the donor and his/her mother. Each tree is adopted by one student. 9. Rain Water Harvesting: To cultivate the culture of water conservation, we have established two rainwater harvesting structures: a) Roof top rain water harvesting for bore-well recharge is established at boys’ hostel b) Roof top rain water harvesting for laboratory distilled water is established by constructing a ferrocrete tank of capacity 5000 liters. The tank is constructed by college students and technology is provided by Dr. R. R. Kumbhar. 10. Canteen as a Learning Resource: A bamboo canteen and Pagoda is constructed with help of earn and Learn students from the waste material and eight wall papers of different subjects are displayed in the canteen. 11.

More than 2500 saree bags, 100 children’s dresses and table clothes have been sold. A special training of suing and screen printing has been organized for the needy girls. 12. College to Village Programme: To increase the communication between college and society, a team of the faculty visits nearby villages from where the students admit in the college. They give all the information of the college regarding curricular, co- curricular and extra-curricular activities run in the college. The reciprocal communication takes place between the villagers and the faculty. By this programme, the institution comes to know the needs of the people. 13. Student- Teacher Research Cell: To inculcate the research culture among the students, the college students are encouraged to carry out independent research. They are provided with a mentor teacher who trains them to carry out the literature survey, design of hypothesis carrying out the experiments or surveys and to test the hypothesis. The best projects are felicitated. 14. Students and faculty exchange programme: In this programme the MOU is signed with B. K. College, Belgaum under which some students and teachers are exchanged to experience new institute and local culture; the teachers are exposed to new students and vice versa. It is found that their confidence has been increased to a large extend. 15. Workshop on preparation of Eco-friendly Ganesh idols: The workshop was carried out with 20 students and five teachers; instead of highly polluting POP Ganesh idols painted with toxic chemical paints. The students are taught to prepare the idols from clay and Kaolin. Doordarshan covered t he programme extensively. Ten of such idols exported to California. 16. Sant Tukaram Wachan katta, B. S. Mardhekar Kavi Katta and Socretes prashna manch : The above activities are organized on every Monday, Wednesday and Friday respectively to inculcate the learning competence and analytical skills among the students. 17.
