Raipur: Pragati College’s Community Service Club organised a motivational programme on community service in the college’s Seminar Hall on Saturday, 24 October 2026, with social worker Vikram Hishikar as the resource person. The programme brought students and faculty together for an academic engagement centred on service and social responsibility.
Community Service at the Centre of Learning
The programme, scheduled for 2 pm, placed community service within the college’s student engagement activities. It provided a platform for students to engage with a practitioner from the social sector and consider the connection between education and participation in community life.
The theme highlighted an important dimension of education: developing an awareness of the people and communities beyond the classroom. Community service offers a context for considering how individual effort and collective participation can contribute to society.

For students, engagement with community service can provide a valuable setting for reflecting on cooperation, responsibility and the role of education in society. The session placed these concerns within a shared learning environment at the college.
