1. Organizing Gandhi Vichar Sanskar Pariksha in order to instill the moral values in the students.
Today, we can see a negative atmosphere of tension, war, and conflict among several countries across the world. Over the past ten years, many innocent people have lost their lives due to war and violence. We have witnessed several such tragic incidents. Events of this nature at the international level leave a deep impact on the younger generation. Many young people have come to strongly believe that violent actions are the only way to solve the problems in life. Even in a democratic country like India, we often witness political, religious, caste-based, and racial conflicts. Many times, such conflicts escalate into violent activities and bloodshed. We have seen numerous such incidents. To change this situation and to eliminate violence from the world, there is only one effective solution – to re-establish the great philosophy of Mahatma Gandhi, especially the value of non-violence. In order to introduce Mahatma Gandhi’s philosophy to the younger generation, to instill the value of non-violence in students, and to reduce incidents of war, tension, and bloodshed, the Department of Sociology has taken the initiative to spread Gandhian thought among college students through the Gandhi Vichar Sanskar Pariksha.
Over the last 14 years the department of Sociology organizing Gandhi Vichar Sanskar Pariksha to spread the Gandhian thoughts and inculcate the importance of the value of Non-Violence in the students. Every year average 40 to 50 students shows the interest the to attend this exam. Several students of the college reached on the district level and achieved the Gold Medal along with certificate of appreciation. The Coordinator, Dr. R. G. Kumawat felicitated each year with the certificate of appreciation by the Gandhi Foundation. The Institution also honored with mementos by Gandhi Foundation. Gandhi Vichar Sanskar Pariksha conducted by an Institution, the name is “Gandhi Foundation”, Jalgaon, Maharashtra. This institution takes the initiatives to spread the Gandhian thoughts all over the world with arranging Gandhi Vichar Sanskar Pariksha.
