We would like to make a humble note of our richest cultural heritage — that of Lord Agasti. He is remembered as the first Arya to cross the Vindhya mountain ranges and settle at this very place, where a famous temple of Lord Agasti stands today on the banks of the river Pravara. Agasti was the pioneer grammarian of the Tamil language and a social revolutionary whose marriage to Lopamudra is regarded as the first inter-caste marriage. It is in keeping with this tradition that we welcome you all to our campus.
