Dear Students, Parents, Faculty Members and Well-wishers,
It is with great humility and honor that I step into the role of Principal at Shri Kishandas Kikani Arts and Commerce College, Dhandhuka an institution that carries a legacy of academic excellence, cultural heritage and community service.
Our college has been a beacon of knowledge and values for generations. Rooted in tradition and inspired by a forward-looking vision, we strive to empower our students with the intellectual strength, moral integrity and social responsibility that define true education.
We believe that education is not merely the transmission of facts, but the transformation of character. At our institution, we nurture an environment where students are encouraged to think critically, act ethically and lead confidently. We aim to instill a growth mindset where challenges are opportunities and learning is a lifelong pursuit.
In line with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, our college is committed to promoting a holistic and multidisciplinary approach to education. We seek to foster creativity, innovation and entrepreneurship among students, while also drawing from the profound wisdom of the Indian Knowledge System (IKS) integrating traditional Indian sciences, arts, culture and values into our academic framework.
To bridge the gap between classroom learning and real-world demands, we emphasize skill development, experiential learning and career readiness. We are expanding opportunities for internships, fieldwork, digital fluency and community engagement, ensuring that our graduates are well-prepared for a globalized and technology-driven world.
Beyond academics, we place strong emphasis on character-building and nation-building. We aim to produce self-reliant, socially aware citizens who embody the ideals of Atmanirbhar Bharat, uphold the dignity of labour and contribute meaningfully to society.
As we step into a new era, I invite all stakeholders such as students, parents, faculty, alumni and community members to walk with us on this shared journey. Let us blend the wisdom of the past with the innovations of the future to create an inclusive, inspiring and impactful educational experience.
Together, let us nurture a new generation of thinkers, doers, leaders and change-makers who will not only fulfill their own potential but also uplift our society and nation.
With warm regards,
Dr. Jignesh H. Tapariya
Principal
Shri Kishandas Kikani Arts and Commerce College, Dhandhuka
