IRIS 2018 (Initiative to research, Invocation to Social Art) With the objective to set up a platform to offer hands on training to the students, our Management had taken the initiative to conduct Project exhibition through IRIS in 2013. Initially in IRIS 2013, we had only 8 Junior Colleges with 150 students participating in the event but the success in IRIS 2013, seemed so great that in IRIS 2014 more junior colleges from Kalyan — Dombivli from Science, Commerce and Arts came up with their ideas. Students executed their working models. Our achievement and connectivity of IRIS 2014 proved very applauding and we planned to include the Secondary School section in IRIS 2015.
