About J.T.S.S.P.M.
The college was founded in 1970 under the intellectual and academic leadership of the famous economist Hon. Shri Govardhandas Parikh, the then Rector, Bombay University. The first Chairman, eminent Royist G.D. Parikh dreamt of bringing knowledge from Pune and Mumbai to a remote place such as Junnar to uplift the masses. In 1970 a peasant’s son, a tribal’s progeny from this area had no chance of higher education, despite its being a treasure of “brain”. The Junnar Taluka Shivner Shikshan Prasarak Mandal established then, had the only aim of leading the downtrodden, backward and tribal masses from darkness to light, from illiteracy to higher education.
