Dombivli, the city in Thane district of Maharashtra retains a distinct identity of its own and occupies a significant position in the socio cultural map of the region. The town is well known for its high literacy rate. It is the third most literate cities of India. It has been the centre for a series of socio cultural and literary movements and activities. There are about hundred pre-primary, primary and secondary schools, a score of Junior Colleges, few technical institutions and half a dozen Degree Colleges.

But some thirty years ago, the educational environment of the city presented a different picture. Students from Dombivli and surrounding rural areas had to take admission in the colleges of Thane and Mumbai. Travelling by heavily crowded local train was laborious, time consuming and risky. Many youth could not obtain higher education due to lack of colleges in the neighborhood.

Under this background, the Dombivli Shikshan Prasarak Mandal was established in 1972 by some elite citizens of Dombivli from different fields who realized the need for the college in the city. All members of the Mandal were well qualified, reputed in their own fields and dedicated to the cause of education and upliftment of society. They were aware of the role of institutions of higher education and took up the mission of providing education to students and converting them into responsible citizens of the nation.

“O! Lord lead us from the darkness of ignorance to the light of knowledge”.

This is the motto of K. V. Pendharkar College, which has been inscribed clearly on its emblem. The logo also contains a peacock with its feathers spread and a lighted lamp inside a wheel. The webbed wheel symbolizes industry, which is the backbone of the economic development of our county. The peacock is the national bird of India. It is the vehicle of the Goddess Saraswati, the deity of learning and creativity in Indian Classical mythology.

The hundreds of the eyes in the tail of the peacock represent the idea of eternal vigilance, one of the objectives of education, and the attribute of an intelligent, educated humanbeing. The Lighted lamp stands for the spread of knowledge in all directions. Thus, both the peacock and the lamp express clearly the mission and the motto of K. V. Pendharkar college, that is, the imparting of knowledge to all irrespective of caste and creed. The Mandal has worked ceaselessly on this mission and has created an enviable record in the domain of education in the town of Dombivli.
