The college was started way back in June, 1954 with only 54 students in a single Arts Faculty. It flourished over the years to become a multi-faculty institution with 22 departments, a large number of support services and interdisciplinary activities at present. The campus is spread over about 6.8 hectors. The total student strength of Senior and Junior College is more than 6000. The number of teaching and non-teaching staff is above 200. Ours is the first college in India opened at the Tehsil place. Our students hail from 350 distant villages. More than 95% students come from rural area. The objective of the founder of our Sanstha, Padmabhushan Dr. Karmaveer Bhaurao Patil was to impart education to the poorest of the poor through self-help; irrespective of caste, creed and religion.
