About Shikshana Prasaraka Mandal
The Shikshana Prasaraka Mandal is one of the premier educational societies in Solapur district that runs pre-primary, primary, secondary, higher secondary and higher educational institutions at Mangalwedha, Velapur, Bhose, Begampur, Ambe Chincholi, Narkhed in four Talukas of Solapur District.
The founder of the
institution, late Dalit Mitra Kadam Guruji, was a man of the masses who devoted
all his mind and heart to the cause of their education. He had an incisive
understanding of the social ills that beset his times and fully realized the
dire need of the spread of education. He believed that education alone could
correct the social ills such as caste-hierarchy, money-lending, illiteracy,
untouchability, superstitions and social and economic inequality. Throughout
his life he tried to translate this belief into reality. He realised that the
social ills could be remedied through the education of the masses alone and
laid the foundation of the Shikshana Prasaraka Mandal by opening a school in cremation ground at Mangalwedha in 1962.
