It is a matter of great pride to be the torch bearer of a century old institute which was established in the year 1908. I am greatly rejoiced and proudly place on record the fact that since its humble inception with a two year certificate course in weaving, one of the oldest textile institute of the country has now become a multidisciplinary engineering college. Education is the manifestation of love and my most cherished possession. Education drives away ignorance and through illumination it emboldens a man to a righteous thought and action. It empowers a woman and enlarges the horizon of her mind. It energizes a society and enables a man to earn his living with respect and praise. Hence my love for it.
