Rofel Arts and Commerce College Principal and Senior Professor Appointed to Prestigious Administrative Bodies of Veer Narmad South Gujarat University
The academic community of Vapi is celebrating a moment of immense prestige as two prominent leaders from the Rofel Arts and Commerce College have been entrusted with high-level administrative responsibilities at Veer Narmad South Gujarat University (VNSGU), Surat. In a recent official announcement, the Principal of the college, Dr. Hemaliben Desai, has been appointed as a member of the Executive Council of VNSGU. Joining her in the university’s top-tier management is Dr. Mahesh Daru, a senior professor at the same college, who has been appointed as a member of the Board of Management. These appointments represent a significant recognition of the expertise and leadership qualities fostered within Rofel College and mark a new chapter in the institution’s contribution to state-level educational governance.
These appointments carry particular weight as they have been made under the framework of the newly implemented Gujarat Public Universities Act. This Act was designed to streamline university administration across the state and bring more professional and academic oversight to the decision-making process. The Executive Council and the Board of Management serve as the primary governing authorities of the university, responsible for formulating academic policies, managing financial resources, and overseeing the general administration of hundreds of affiliated colleges. Having two representatives from a single institution in Vapi ensures that the challenges and aspirations of colleges in the industrial and rural belts of South Gujarat are well-represented at the university headquarters in Surat.
Dr. Hemaliben Desai, in her capacity as a member of the Executive Council, will now be part of the supreme body that monitors the executive functions of the university. Her role involves approving new academic programs, ensuring the quality of higher education, and maintaining the standards of university examinations. Her years of experience as the Principal of Rofel College, where she managed diverse academic departments and student welfare initiatives, will be invaluable in her new role. Educators in Vapi believe that her presence in the Council will help bridge the gap between rural educational needs and urban policy design, potentially leading to more inclusive growth for students across the South Gujarat region.
Simultaneously, the appointment of Dr. Mahesh Daru to the Board of Management highlights his long-standing dedication to the field of higher education. The Board of Management is a crucial body that handles the day-to-day strategic operations and management of the university’s assets and personnel. As a senior professor, Dr. Daru brings a deep understanding of the ground-level issues faced by both the teaching faculty and the student body. His expertise is expected to contribute toward more transparent administrative processes and more effective implementation of university-wide reforms. This double appointment is seen by many as a strategic move by VNSGU to include veteran educators who have a proven track record of institutional building.
The news of these high-profile appointments was met with grand celebrations at the Rofel Arts and Commerce College campus in Vapi. The entire faculty, administrative staff, and student body gathered to express their pride and joy, honoring Dr. Desai and Dr. Daru with floral tributes and messages of congratulations. The mood was one of collective victory, as these appointments elevate the status of Rofel College within the Gujarat educational hierarchy. Students expressed their excitement, noting that having their mentors in such powerful university positions would naturally lead to a better understanding of student issues and foster an environment of academic excellence and innovation at their local college.
The Rofel Trust and local educational activists have also lauded the university’s decision, viewing it as a testament to the high pedagogical standards maintained by the college over the years. By taking on these active roles in university management and academic policy-making, Dr. Hemaliben Desai and Dr. Mahesh Daru are set to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of higher education for thousands of students enrolled in VNSGU. As they step into these new offices, the expectations are high for them to drive reforms that make the university more student-centric and globally competitive. The entire Vapi region stands proud, watching its local educators take the helm of one of Gujarat’s most influential public universities.
