A Note from the Webpage Administrator
We have not yet been able to get in touch with this center and collect a formal appeal, which we plan to do over course of time but which might take a considerable while due to our having to get in touch with a large number of centers, the remoteness of the centers, as well as their not having any readymade formal appeals in hand.

What we have portrayed below, therefore, is the philanthrophic/charitable activities conducted by this center as submitted in their annual report to the Ramakrishna Mission Headquarters.

As should be obvious, all philanthrophic/charitable activities of Ramakrishna Mission are supported through contributions from kind hearted folks and/or institutions.

Started in 1946, this centre conducts the following activities:

  • Vivekananda College, an arts and science postgraduate college for men with 1630 students. The departments of chemistry, economics, philosophy, botany and Sanskrit has research scholars working for Ph.D degrees. The college library has about 80,800 books and 64 periodicals. Scholarships and concessions given to the students amount to about Rs. 12,63,500. The NSS and NCC units have a large number of students on their rolls.
  • An evening college with 516 students
  • A hostel with 200 inmates, and
  • Birthday celebrations of Sri Ramakrishna, the Holy Mother, Swami Vivekananda and Swami Ramakrishnananda.
