OUR FOUNDER

“Earn and learn” is the Best Practise of life. Education is the never ending process. Continuing education in one’s own capacity is always good.
The students from different part of the state are continuing education in this college who are employed in unorganised sectors and public institutions. Needless to say, the paramount endeavour of Poornaprajna institutions is to create a real academic atmosphere so that the students are enabled to shape themselves into enlightened and responsible individuals making their own contributions to the glory of our great nation.
Education is a never ending process. Hence the motto of the institution “Amrutantu Vidya” has been incorporated in the college emblem. This spirit has been effectively put into practice in our college since its beginning and it has been the constant endeavour of the college to improve the overall performance over the years.
Swami Vivekananda has stressed the importance of education succinctly thus; “We want that education by which character is formed, strength of mind is increased, the intellect is expanded and by which one can stand one’s own feet”.
Our college cares for the individual development of each and every student. We follow a mentor system under which each class is put into the multi – pronged web of a teacher. We accord prime importance to the behavioral discipline, moral integrity and cognitive development of our students. Departments of youth welfare, NSS, Physical Education, Career Guidance Cell, Red Ribbon Club, Red Cross Society, Rovers and Rangers and Women Empowerment offer integrated services for the multi-faceted development our students.
Our highly-resourceful teachers strive to teach not only academic programmes but also life skills needed for students’ self-development. Education drives away ignorance and through illumination it inspires a man towards righteous thoughts and action. If empowers a woman and enlarges the horizon of her mind. It energizes a society and enables a man to earn his hiring with respect and poise. `
As a result of our dedication and commitment, we have been able to get “B” Grade in the reaccreditation assessment by NAAC in the year 2018. It is our resolve to work for still higher levels in the field of education and benefit the society with the quality education.
