Cut throat competition to achieve material success has made human beings mechanical. Results of such unhealthy race in life can be seen in terms of insecurity, distrust, disrespect to people, property and nature, lack of fellow feeling, lack of honor for human values etc. leading to discontent and maladjustment in personal and social life and finally leading to drug abuse, maladjustment and even suicide among students -our young adults. Hence people across the globe are looking towards the system of education to infuse human values among the students so that the world remains as a place of peace, security and prosperity Our aim of Value Education is to create an awareness about the significance and role Values and to facilitate moral and spiritual growth of the student community.
