History

edit

Vidyalankar is the realization of a passionate dream of its founder Shri. C.S. Deshpande . In 1950, he was a top ranker in the Int. Sc. Examination of the Savitribai Phule Pune University standing first in every subject, creating a record in Mathematics and the Grand Total and winning all the prizes and scholarships of the university.

The solitary scholarship of the then government of Bombay State for the highest marks among all the 4 universities in the state (Mumbai, Pune, Gujarat and Karnataka) was awarded to him and was continued up to the end of his education.

On the conclusion of his B.E. degree in Electronics from the Government College of Engineering Pune, the principal of his college recommended him to the leading scientist, Dr. Homi J. Bhabha by a special personal letter. He was then appointed as a research scholar in the famous Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (T.I.F.R) in 1954.

In the next year (1955) he appeared for the 'Indian Engineering Services' (IES) examination of the U.P.S.C. and secured the 1st rank in that All India Competition too. Consequently he joined the I.R.S.E. (Indian Railway Service of Engineers) in 1957. However, his academic mind did not find complete satisfaction in that administrative work and in just a couple of years, he decided to quit that Coveted Class I Gazetted service in favour of an academic career. Ultimately, in 1959, he did take the highly unconventional decision of walking out of the secure and prestigious Class I officer's service, to undertake teaching of his favourite subjects of Mathematics, Mechanics and Electrical & Electronic Engineering. He started by teaching his first batch of students in a rented school class room at Dadar, on the auspicious occasion of Dussehra in the year 1960. The group has grown steadily even since.
