Maharashtra’s Baba Amte‑Founded College Requests Management Transfer Over Safety Concerns

The institution, established by veteran social reformer Baba Amte, operates in Maharashtra and offers courses aimed at community development and social work. Recent internal reviews highlighted a series of safety lapses that the current governing body has been unable to rectify. In response, the college administration has submitted a petition to the state education department requesting a transfer of management to an entity capable of addressing the identified risks. Officials have acknowledged receipt of the request and indicated that a thorough assessment will be conducted before any restructuring decision is made. The move underscores growing concerns about campus safety standards in private educational institutions across the state.
