Economics

The Department of Economics was established with the establishment of the College itself in 1991. Prof. R. V. Shrikhande was the first faculty to teach in the department. He was there up to 2003 and then for some technical issues beyond the control of the institution, visiting faculties or contributory lecturers were in-charge of the department on yearly basis till the appointment of
Prof. Liladhar D. Kharpuriye in June 2010. His arrival expectedly resulted in more students opting for economics as a subject and it also showed marked improvement in the university results. Like all other departments, this department also follows similar teaching and evaluation methods. Prof. Kharpuriye was awarded Ph.D. by Rashtrasant Tukadoji Maharaj Nagpur University, Nagpur in July 2016.
