The English Department arranged a visit to the Academy of Comparative Philosophy and Religion (ACPR) for BA III Optional English students on 7th July 2018 after college hours. This was arranged in the context of the study of Indian English Literature (IEL) – Paper II which is a part of the syllabus. Dr I S Kumbar, Secretary ACPR and Shri Jakati , committee member made the visit memorable.
ACPR is popularly known as Gurudev Ranade Mandir and was inaugurated by Dr. S Radhakrishnan in 1965. It is a centre symbolising the spiritual truth in the tradition of Gurudev. It has a rich library containing 30,000 books including the books authored by Gurudev. The visit attempted to bring alive works that are spoken about as part of prose in IEL. It was an enriching experience to students who were able to browse through the books, sit for a small meditation session in the meditation hall and learn about Gurudev.
