Shri Chhatrapati Shikshan & Arogya Prasarak Mandal kharda’s - ‘Shri Sant Gajanan Mahavidyalaya’ is one of the reputed college affiliated to SPPU, Pune. college is established in 2002, to provide opportunities of higher education to the poor, rural students of Kharda and its surrounding villages. Our focus is to bring the girl students in particular in the main stream of higher education. As Kharda is always been a drought affected region, where parents after completing 10th or 12th standard examination by their wards, they thought that their wards should cooperate in earning the bread and butter for themselves. Eventually this results in a heavy loss of enrolment to higher education. Taking into consideration the need of the hour our institution started B.A. Programm from the academic year 2002, M.A. Marathi & B.com of YCMOU Nasik from the academic year 2017 & 2018 respectively. Institution also has it’s MCVC Unit functioning from 1996, Arts and Science at junior level from 2008, Since then we never look back the graph of our institution is gradually rising year by year in every respect.

Our college is a granted college. We have near about 100% permeant staff, Including teaching and non-teaching. We have permanent affiliation of both the divisions. (Division A & Division B). Moreover, I Would like to mention here that we have 2(f) and 12(B) of UGC act 1956. Very soon we are going to apply for the NAAC.

In short, I may say that, a small plant which we planted in 1996 is now blossomed into a tree, and we will continue to make it huge with the cooperation of our staff and other stakeholders that are directly or indirectly related with our institution.
