Khed Taluka Shikshan Prasarak Mandal, Rajgurunagar established Hutatma Rajguru Mahavidyalaya, in 1977. It is matter of great pride and honour to lead Hutatma Rajguru Mahavidyalay at this historic location. Khed Taluka Shikshan Prasarak Mandal was established by founder Chairman late Sahebraoji Buttepatil with a commitment to provide quality education to the students from remote villages of Khed Taluka. This institution aims at academic excellence and social justice through education. Hutatma Rajguru Mahavidyalaya has become a center of academic activities in this region. The college began with Science and Commerce faculties. In 1984, Faculty of Arts was also introduced. We also run M.Sc. Chemistry, M.Com and M.A. in English, Economics, Marathi and Political Science. The college is permanently affiliated to Savitribai Phule Pune University and has acquired 12B and 2F status of the UGC. We have also started four diploma courses namely Auto Technology, Retail Management, Electrical Technology, Gemology and Jewellery under Community college along with B.Voc. in Pharmaceutical Chemistry and Food and Dairy Technology. In all these courses, the students are encouraged to undertake research projects and participate in extracurricular, co-curricular and sports activities.

We are proud to mention that our students have achieved success in competitive examinations, research fields, sports and cultural activities. Our students have become government officers, defense officers, police officers, industrialists, scientists, artists, writers, teachers and national players. Some of our students have been working in multinational companies. The college has several achievements to its credit in the form of awards, schemes, status and grade. We have received various awards from the state government and the university. Some of them are The Best NSS Unit Award, The Best NSS Student Award, The Best Student Welfare Unit, The Best NCC Officer Award, The Best Teacher Award. We have also won the prizes in Avishkar competition. We also organize international, national, state and university level seminars, conferences and workshops. We have been organizing Sahebraoji Buttepatil Memorial Lecture Series since 2002. We invite dignitaries from various fields to have dialogue with our students.

The college also runs the center of Yashwantrao Chavan Maharashtra Open University successfully. It provides educational opportunities to deserving people deprived of the opportunities of formal education. The college has earned name and fame because of its academic excellence, regularity and punctuality of its rigorous routine, high standards of discipline, administrative control and progressive attitude and positive social outlook of the management.

I am extremely glad to mention that the Department of Science and Technology of Government of India has extended grants for the development of research activities. This will certainly encourage us to undertake innovative activities for the benefits our students. Highly motivated and qualified teachers constantly strive to upgrade their teaching methods in order to enlarge educational horizon of our students. The office staff also tries to provide an atmosphere of efficiency and cordiality. Teamwork is the hallmark of Hutatma Rajguru Mahavidyalaya.

I would like to mention the constant support, guidance and encouragement extended by the Chairman, Vice-Chairman, Secretary and the Directors of K.T.S.P.Mandal.

I welcome you here on our campus and wish you an unforgettable experience with us.

Dr.S.B.Patil,
