Upanishad shloka “ Tamso Maa Jyothir Gamaya” is the Indian understanding of education.
In darkness we cannot see. So, we do not understand anything. But when light comes, things become clear and visible to us. This clarity of vision helps us to understand this situation before us. And this understanding helps us to respond our responsibility and this is the way to get success in life and also to lead a life of fullness.
“The highest education is that which does not merely give us information but makes our life in harmony with all existence.” – Rabindranath Tagore
Life is not all about coming first, but it matters about the road travelled the character, the values , the morals the inner bring that has led us to come first. The world is becoming highly competitive today. We all want to live in the society where there is love, peace, joy harmony, development, freedom from violence and corruption. The dream of a good society should have a foundation. And one of such foundations is “EDUCATION”.
“If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more and become more, then you are a leader”.
With these lines I feel delighted about the publication of our Souvenir “UDAYAN” of the Uday Memorial B. Ed. College, Ranchi, a treasured plot from that captures the essence of our academic journey and community spirit.

There is something new that is coming into our lines every moment – new information, new knowledge, new fashion, new ideas etc. now technology is creating new habits in us.
I feel proud for the Seminar to be held on 27th and 28th of June 2026 on the topic of “Artificial Intelligence (AI) for Skill Development in Developing Countries”.
