II. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY INCLUSIVE OF THE SWOC ANALYSIS OF THE INSTITUTION
Indapur, located on Mumbai-Hyderabad National Highway No. 9, having the population of about 40,000 is a Taluka place towards South-East region of Pune District. This place has been gifted with glorious historical as well as cultural heritage. As per the historical records, Shri. Maloji Raje Bhosale, the grandfather of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, resided at Indapur. There is a lake at Shetphal Haveli (15 km. away from Indapur) which was built in the pre- independence period as an irrigation source for the agriculture. A large number of farmers have been benefited by this lake. There is Indreshwar Temple at Indapur. Nrusinha Mandir is located at Narsingpur near Bhima-Nira Rivers. Palasnath Mandir is located at Palasdev, on Mumbai – Hyderabad National Highway. This taluka is project affected in which 22 villages have been displaced due to the construction of Ujani Dam. This dam is 10 km. away from our college. Indapur Taluka Shikshan Prasarak Mandal was founded in the year 1938 under the wise, intellectual and academic leadership of dedicated people, by preserving a particular vision of uplifting the social status. This Education Society has an educational trust came into existence with a noble and great objectives of serving the poor rural masses for their development. Realizing the importance of basic knowledge in one‟s overall development, the Mandal has adopted a mission of spreading primary, secondary and higher educational facilities at grass root level. Our institute at the same time came to know an absolute necessity of providing degree education to the children of farmers, labours, workers and villagers. The institute thought to take endeavor in providing the knowledge to the poor masses. Our college is located in Indapur which is 135 km away from Pune city, being an affiliated college to University of Pune, we follow the Act, Status, Ordinances, Rules and Regulations regarding the procedure of admissions, recruitments of faculty and administrative staff, conduct of examinations, salary payments of the faculty and staff laid down by the UGC, Government of Maharashtra and University of Pune. The prime aim of this institution is to project poverty ridden youth as the most competent, able, courageous and self-confident youth. The institute strongly believes that mass illiteracy and ignorance are the major obstacles in the path of human development. Hence, the quality education to the rural masses would certainly help to remove these obstacles and the potential Arts, Science and Commerce College, Indapur, Dist. Pune, Maharashtra 3 human power neglected hitherto could be utilized and motivated properly in the process of overall development. Keeping this vision and attachment with this attitude we are imparting well directed and sincere efforts in utilizing these human resources by spreading up educational facilities in the rural area of this Taluka. After meeting the primary and secondary educational requirements, Arts and Commerce College was established in the year 1972, to which the faculty of science was added in June 1989. The goals and aims of Arts, Science and Commerce College have been, doing it‟s utmost to fulfill the urge of knowledge of the rural youths. Maintaining the college in rural area is a unique experience for our own rural students in philanthrophical way. The college imparts degree education in three faculties, that is, Arts, Science and Commerce. This basic education helps the students to enter in the field of advanced higher education and postgraduate level courses. A huge campus covers an area of 9.5 acres upon which the main building and buildings of other sections are located. Central Library contains 45,778 books and subscribing 51 journals and periodicals as distinctive feature of our institution. Moreover, independent and well equipped laboratories, specious playground with 400 meters running track are additional features of our campus. Total number of students admitted for the current academic year is 2285 of which 802 are female students and 1483 are male students. We carry out all the academic activities listed in the syllabi very sincerely, whole heartedly and with a positive frame of mind. With the help of curricular, co-curricular, extra-curricular and extension activities we try our best to engage community as knowledge workers for bridging a gap between college and society. The Central Library has been computerized. Open access is made available for the students and citizens of Indapur taluka. The college publishes its prospectus and draws academic calendar every year. In addition to above, our college also publishes „i – College Varta‟ (News Bulletin)‟ after every six months in which all details of the college activities are published for the students as well as the citizens of Indapur Taluka.

The college has been functioning according to its stated Mission, always keeping students as the central point of achievements in the higher education. The college has a separate IQA Cell which is working efficiently. There are various Academic and Administrative Bodies under the leadership of various members of the faculty, the activities in the college are organized. The Management has been backing up the college with systematic and innovative planning for the overall growth. The college makes optimal use of budgetary provisions for the academic, administrative and developmental activities. The accounts are audited regularly. With a keen eye on excellence the Management Committee of the college, from the day of its formation, has been committed for promoting quality in Higher Education, keeping a step always ahead of the time facilitating the college with financial and instrumental back up. All the Innovative Practices have been orientated towards achieving such goals. We have decided to undergo the process of Assessment and Re-accreditation. We started primary discussion of assessment process among the Senior Faculty Members. Some of the senior staff members were directed to study various aspects of criteria minutely. They were deputed to participate in National, International and State Level Seminars, Conferences and Workshops regarding NAAC arranged by the leading Colleges and Universities. Literature, throwing light on different criteria and motives of the NAAC were collected and thought provoking discussions were conducted among all the staff members. In this persistent process of discussions and studies, awareness began to grow slowly and gradually among all the teaching and administrative staff, including the members of Management of our Institution. The most important point that inspired us, in the agenda of NAAC, which we feel too valuable to resist our desire to mention it, “NAAC is to assess and accredit institutions of higher learning with an objective of helping them to work continuously to improve the quality of Higher Education”. Going through the process of Assessment and Accreditation by NAAC, we want to avail an opportunity to our strengths and weaknesses. Further, we have realized that after assessment our institution will visualize a new sense of direction and identity. The Management of Indapur Taluka Shikshan Prasarak Mandal appointed a qualified and full time Principal Dr. Sanjay Chakane (M. Sc., Ph. D.). He is the most active, enthusiastic and dynamic person for the administration who is enriching unique standard in the field of Higher Education. His innovative approach and dedication helps the institution to achieve our aims and objectives in the days to come. He has visited many foreign countries in order to
Arts, Science and Commerce College, Indapur, Dist. Pune, Maharashtra 5 promote the research work in the area of his interest and his contribution in that respect is very distinctive and motivative. In December 2003, NAAC Peer Team visited first time to our college. Almost all suggestions mentioned by NAAC Peer Team have been fulfilled by our college. For preparing Reaccreditation Report (RAR) in a definite prescribed format to be submitted to NAAC, different committees like Steering Committee, Coordination Committee and Criterion-wise Committees were constituted. All these committees were represented by the members of the teaching, non-teaching staff and the members of Management, whenever necessary. This final RAR draft is an outcome of collective efforts taken by all the members of these committees.

Arts, Science and Commerce College, Indapur, Dist. Pune, Maharashtra 146
5. Evidence of Success - The results of the best practices are satisfactory. We are receiving good responses from the students and the community. Many students have recruited in the Police Department of State Government. It shows that it is a great success of the expedition.
6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required – There were few difficulties in implementation of the best practices in the process of administration. But we tried to remove those difficulties for the positive and constructive changes. In order to overcome the difficulties we have used the man power from the students working under Earn and Learn Scheme. We require more funds for the effective implementation of Best Practices. For this purpose, UGC has to increase the funds for the institution.
7. Notes – We found that there was a good response from the students. Then, we became more confident and alert in connection with such practices. Now, the students are happy to enjoy all such changes in the rural area.
II. BEST PRACTICES 1. Title of the practice: „i'-College Exhibition, SMS Varta, Newsletter. 2. Goal- The first and foremost goal of this practice is to encourage the students with the vision of research. Along with it the next goal is to enrich and strengthen the stage daring of the students.
