MESSAGE
I am indeed exuberant to bring this information
brochure to you for making you aware with the
ambrosial salience of a world class seat of
learning and research in management and
computer sciences - School of Management
Sciences, Varanasi. Its continuous attainment of
A++ category in the B-School Survey by Business
India has brought it a landslide honour in as much
as placing it among the 3 top-most B-Schools of
UP. Also, the grant of International Accreditation
to SMS Varanasi, coupled with its putative
singularity in terms of achieving a hundred
percent compliance to the various formidable
concerns raised recently by the global
management education system, certainly reflect
a muscular acknowledgement of its consolidated
growth and dashing maturity in the non-IIM
category. Let me express my deep sense of
gratitude towards the unwearied cooperation of
our stakeholders in providing for a major fillip to
SMS in developing ideally and to carve out a
distinct niche for itself in the business world.
Though SMS has been proactive on all the various
scholastic fronts, yet its curricular & pedagogical
revisits meticulously prior to beginning of a
semester, in order to sincerely accommodate the
emerging industrial & academic concerns, is
certainly remarkable. The organized exercise thus
brings to the cerebral-fold relevant value models
& skill-mix per taining to issues like,
communication & personality development,
emotional intelligence, leadership qualities,
10
SMS VARANASI
business ethics & etiquettes, pertinent
managerial inputs from the ancient Indian
wisdom, and many more in order to effect a
holistic grooming of our PGDMs, MBA & MCA
participants and further enabling them to
become fully compatible to the current and
upcoming job environments.
An extraordinary blending of arrogantly beautiful
physical infrastructure, compounded with an
ebullient & dedicated team of the seasoned &
brilliant faculty of SMS passionately nurture the
talents of our students so that they could address
to the plural needs and ethos of the corporate
world effectively. This has been a major factor
behind SMS always scripting a wonderful track of
fabulous quality placements even during the
spate of adverse times.
Moreover, the unwavering quest of SMS to
redefine the canon of excellence is a perpetual
process, and we are sure of touching the
apotheosis in this regard by the onerous efforts
of SMS-team, endowed with a burgeoning
reliance of our stakeholders and the incessant
blessings of the Almighty.
Wishing you all the best !
Yours sincerely,

OF THE WORLD
VARANASI
THE OLDEST CITY
BANARAS IS OLDER THAN HISTORY,
OLDER THAN TRADITION OLDER EVEN THAN
LEGEND, AND LOOKS TWICE AS
OLD AS ALL OF THEM PUT TOGETHER
Varanasi, also called Kashi or Banaras, is actually
the Land of Eternity between the rivers Varuna
and Assi and has been acclaimed to be one of the
noblest places in not only India, but the whole of
the world.
12
SMS VARANASI
Situated on the banks of the holy Ganga, where
the pious river takes a crescent sweep towards
the North, Varanasi rightly entails the spring of
the outstanding human values, the climax in
aesthetics, and the aristocracy of the rich Indian
ethos. This City of Light has been the permanent
home of Lord Vishwanath, who is believed to
keep the holy city alive on his Trident even when
the whole world may be doomed in the grip of so
called 'pralaya'. That is why; this celestial place,
decorated with temples and shrines of so many
deities located in the vicinity of colourful ghats on
the banks of Ganga, facilitates thegurus to gather
their disciples, encourages yogis to practice their
VARANASI
the old est city of the world
yogas and ascetics, and equally invites the
hermits of various religions and sects for
sermonizing their teachings.
Varanasi has further been a confluence of the
golden streams of thought of Hinduism,
Buddhism, Jainism, Vaishnavism and Vedic
philosophy since the times immemorial. Lord
Buddha, the 'Awakened One', preferred Kashi for
delivering his maiden sermons on the 'Eight-Fold
Noble Path' and 'Dharmachakra' at Sarnath. Kabir
too got his enlightenment on the steep stairs of
the Ghats of Kashi and Tulsi created his
monumental and epoch making contributions
like Ramacharit Manas & Vinaya Patrika on the
holy banks of Ganga. It is on account of the
unique sanctity of this place that Pandit Madan
Mohan Malaviya chose Banaras for establishing
the well-known 'Banaras Hindu University' the
singular seat of 'All Learning of the World'.
Such is the magnanimity of Varanasi, where the
School of Management Sciences has been set up
with the objective of training our young
generation in a true cosmopolitan environment
that could cater to the plural and versatile needs.
Varanasi is certainly an attractive and thriving city
to live and to study. With its sacred character and
glorious heritage this holy city offers everything
from the excitement of a big city to the eternal
peace and tranquility.

Krishna Kant Bajpai. The documentary explores the
Kumbh Mela through one to one interviews with

looks beyond the visual spectacle to understand
what draws millions of people from far and wide to
the Prayag and Sangam. Old and frail walk miles and
miles, spend cold nights in the under the open sky,
braving the biting winter, all this just for that holy dip.
The mystical world of Naga sanyasis, their journey
from the material world to the spiritual one.
engrossed in their faith and symbolically moving to
the other realm where all worldly associations,
relations and affiliations cease to exist.
The documentary also takes a close look at the life
style of Kalpwasis, the people who stay at the
Kumbh, worship, eat just once a day and stay
disconnected from the material world for a month.
To get an insight into the life of Kalpavasis, C-SHE
instituted a survey, which the team of faculty and
students conducted. The members were Shri Krishna
