About Dr. Vasantrao Pawar Medical College, Hospital & Research Centre, Nashik Nashik, Maharashtra

Inspired and influenced by the work of Mahatma Jyotiba Phule, Savitribai Phule, Rajshree Chhatrapati Shahu Maharaj with the motto of  “BAHUJAN HITAAY BAHUJAN SUKHAAY” like-minded visionaries Karmaveer Raosaheb Thorat, Kakasaheb Wagh, Bhausaheb Hire, Annasaheb Murkute, Dattatraya Bhonsale, Kirtivanrao Nimbalkar, Ganpat Dada More and much more self-sacrificing, dynamic social workers sowed the seeds of what today is a giant organization and a leading educational trust.

At the beginning of 20th century when the social, political and economic condition of the villagers in interior Maharashtra was in utter chaos and the downtrodden people of the Bahujan Samaj, Adivasis and Dalits were living a helpless and hopeless life, the visionaries realized that the only answer to their woes was education. Armed with education as an instrument for all-round progress and with the mission of spreading knowledge and building a progressively cultured society, this institute has spread education to the poorest of poor into the interiors of all villages of Nasik district.

What started in 1914 as a hostel for 5 boarders as Udoji Maratha Boarding, today caters to the educational need of 1,66,996 students in various branches thus molding their future.

It is easy to establish an institute but difficult to nurture, grow, and maintain its growth. Since its inception and keeping in pace with the times, the institute has slowly, steadily and continuously added various courses to its name and today has 342 branches all over the district which include pre-primary, primary, secondary, higher secondary schools, Arts, Science, Commerce colleges, Industrial Training Institutes, Law college, B.Ed. college, D.Ed. college and offers Professional courses like Pharmacy, Engineering, Architecture, Nursing, Physiotherapy, Medical, etc.
