Community Development

The polytechnic exhibited potential to provide skill training to many youth through Community Polytechnic Scheme (CPS / CDTP) sponsored by MHRD. This polytechnic also rendered useful services in adoption of appropriate technologies and providing technical and support services to rural people in and around Palamaner. The Scheme sponsored by MHRD, New Delhi was started at GPW Palamaner in the year 2001. Through this scheme, this Polytechnic is able to organize and conduct training programs for the rural men and women in, Tailoring, Computer fundamentals, soft toy making, Fabric painting, Embroidery, Zardosi work, and Beautician Course etc. The polytechnic trained about 4000 persons through CPS scheme till 2012. Afterwards, though CDTP funds were sanctioned by the Government, the process of withdrawal from Treasury became difficult and hence programs could not be conducted due to non availability of funds.
