Executive Chairman

MIT Group of Institutions, Pune has had the honour and the privilege to confer the Bharat Asmita National Awards for the last four years. These have been presented to immensely deserving and noble people who have not only excelled in their own chosen areas of work, but have utilized their expertise to work for the greater good of the society. We established MAEER’S MIT Group Of Institutions in 1983 in Pune with the aim of providing ‘Value based’  education to the students in the field of engineering and technology .What began as an engineering college, soon blossomed  into a group of multi-disciplinary and multi-locational academic centers imparting education from primary school level to post graduate research.

All the while, the objective was to provide something beyond mere education for the spiritual upliftment of the students.
I hold the firm conviction that degrees alone do not make a learned person. It is the strength of character and the capacity to face adversity squarely that makes a person worldly wise. We derive a sense of satisfaction for having awarded these prestigious awards on personalities who have displayed an immense strength of character and conviction and have worked against all adversities to reach a position of eminence in their selected fields of work.

Our great country has, from time to time, given birth to extra ordinary human beings, saints, philosophers, scientists, noblemen, reformers and all of them have guided our society and have been a source of inspiration to many a generation of Indians. I hope that Bharat Asmita National Awards will provide the stepping stone for these personalities to reach greater heights of excellence and that they themselves become a source of inspiration to the future generation of Indians
