activities in the neighbourhood community in terms of impact and sensitising
students to social issues and holistic development during the last five years.
Response:
1.
Cashless India: Our objectives are to create awareness of cashless payment and
give training for villagers. The study is conducted in two villages of
Ratnagiri district namely Velneshwar & Palshet. The shopkeepers and vendors
are hesitate to use point of sale (POS) machine because of transaction charges
on POS machine are not affordable. Very less number of populations is having
knowledge about internet and mobile banking.
By implementing this project we have created
awareness and importance of cashless transaction amongst villagers. Small
movement of digital transaction has been started in the form of paying
Electricity bills, mobile recharge through BHIM app.
2.
Museum
on Wheels: VPM’s MPCOE has been actively supporting the
arrival of ‘Museum on Wheels’ and stationing the vehicle in college campus and
then arranging school children to be brought from neighboring schools for
viewing the museum. Wherever the schools are unable to arrange their buses,
MPCOE has offered its buses.
