Buddhist Cultural Trust

1997
True to Dr. Ambedkar’s belief that education is not only a tool of personal development but a means of social change, the Trust emphasizes equal access to quality education for all, regardless of caste, creed, gender, financial status, or physical ability. It strives to build an inclusive and enlightened society by creating opportunities for learning that cultivate critical thinking, self-respect, and empowerment. Under its banner, the Trust runs several pioneering educational institutions: two research centers, which promote academic inquiry and innovation; one English medium school that lays a strong foundation at the primary level; one government-recognized ashram school, which caters to rural and underprivileged children; and Dr. G. K. Dongargaonkar Law College, which fosters legal awareness, professional skills, and a deep understanding of justice and constitutional values. These institutions are not merely centers of learning but also platforms for nurturing socially conscious individuals committed to nation-building. The Trust operates under the able guidance and visionary leadership of Dr. G.K. Dongargaonkar, a highly respected educationist and social thinker, whose tireless efforts continue to inspire generations of students and educators alike. With a mission to build a society based on equality, liberty, and fraternity, the Trust remains steadfast in its pursuit of academic excellence, social justice, and the cultivation of a rational and compassionate mind — in line with the teachings and legacy of Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar.
