PURULIA, May 10: Purulia Ramakrishna Mission Vidyapith, one of the most important pillars of education in the district, will enter its golden jubilee next month. To mark this occasion, year-long socio cultural programmes have been planned to start, between June and July this year.
This school at Kalipur was established Way back in 1907, when Bengal was going through a rough phase by Mr Balaram Bandyopadhyay, an eminent educationist of the region. The goal was to impart the local children with true education, following the ideals of Swami Vivekananda. The school tries to follow the shown ideals of late founder secretary Swami Hiranmayanandaji, Swami Chandranandaji and Swami Promathanandaji . During the tenure of Swami Umanandaji Maharaj ( who is presently in Varanasi Ramakrishna Mission ) as the headmaster and secretary, performance of the school was at an all time high with regular toppers in the board.
