Parth Vidya Prasarak Mandal's Babuji Avhad College

The Founder president Hon'ble N.G. alias Babuji Avhad established "Parth Vidya Prasarak Mandal" in 1965. The aim of establishment of educational institute is to provide higher education to the students coming from illiterate, Poverty, Sticken population and drought prone area. Famine is the recurrent phenomenon of this area and has become part and parcel of the life of people. The major occupation of people is farming which depends on rainfall. There is hardly any scope for major irrigation project. All these factors are responsible for the slow development in this region. Moreover, there is absence of industrial units and hence job opportunities are not available. The dry farming is unable to provide sufficient income and employment to the inhabitants. Employment and underemployment are the striking features of this area. Therefore there is lot of surplus labor. Which is forced migrate in search of employment. The seasonal migration of the people is routine phenomenon. Babuji Avhad was M.L.A. for 10 Years i.e. from 1957 to 1967 at that time there were only 4 colleges in the district. 2 Located at Ahmednagar and 2 in the northern part of Ahmednagar district. There was not a single college in the adjacent talukas of pathardi.
Therefore, for the upliftment of such population, bubuji raised funds from farmers, farm workers and from common people, i.e. 'Janata' and  started 'Janata College' and 'Janata Vidya Mandir' to provide higher education and middle school education respectively. The amount of fund was as low as rupees five per person..
