FROM THE DESK OF VICE PRESIDENT I feel elated to be a member of the team intended to bring about a radical change in the education scenario of my native place. As I retrospect today, I recollect the difficulties I faced during the process of my education process. Lock of good schools, financial constraints and lack of proper guidance all clubbed together were responsible for the detrimental situations I faced during my entire process of education. When Mr Vinod Kumar Upadhaya contacted me with his intent to bring up an education institution which would strive to fulfill the needs of the residents of the area I belong, I was very excited and pledged to be a part of fit. I, live presently at Mumbai, assure all that I shall provide all resources, in my capacity, necessary for the functioning of the institution. Today, with a team of eligible and capable dignitaries who have joined this crusade, I feel assured that the mission will accomplish with all its good intent and values. I wish all the best to all members of this institution and also congratulate the residents of the localit for the upcoming of a panacea in their locality. I am fully assured that, by the grace of God and extensive public support, this institute will prove to bring many laurels, not only for the locality but the country at large.
