From the President’s Desk 2025, I have had the good fortune to be associated with the JanSeva Samiti since its inception. The Samiti began its journey in 1968 with the motto of 'Service to Society'.When the JSS undertook the journey of women empowerment we had hoped that one day the college will be a premier women’s education epicenter in the area. I am happy to witness the dream, we saw more than five decades ago getting realized. The college empowers hundreds of girl students who otherwise cannot afford higher education, many of whom are first generation learners and many have severe financial constraints. Despite such challenges, the students take up courses that are game-changers in their lives, and many of them have become the breadwinners of their families.My colleague, Dr. Ranjan Maniar has been giving unremitting contribution to the college. Being in the noblest of all occupations - a doctor, she has given her unstinted support in medical emergencies and arrangement of camps in college for the last fifty years. She has always given free of cost medical services, especially during the COVID 19 pandemic to not only students but also the staff members. As the college offers education to the economically disadvantaged, the college needs funds to operate, and Ranjanben has been instrumental in getting big donations to the college. Major Initiatives in last few years have been taken in the area of IT and Building infrastructure upgradation, setting up an open Gurukul in 3000Sq. Ft. area, Arambh-Scheme for students who come from challenged backgrounds. Unnat Bharat Abhiyan – College is recognized under the Unnat Bharat Abhiyan scheme facilitated by Central Government, under which 5 villages in Plaghar district have been adopted and to achieve Skill India's flagship skill development scheme. we have started a wide range of skill development certificate courses under NSQF are conducted for students for employability opportunities both while studying and after. It is with the support of members that the Samiti progresses and continues to make a difference in society.
