Therefore, our mission is to turnout individuals, who personify competence, leadership, personal integrity, ethics, and empathy for the weak and less privileged.

In order to fulfill Hon'ble Chairman Dr. Sudhir Giri's passion for providing assistance to the students from financially weaker sections, the group entered in the field of Computer Education and Business Management courses at the end of 20th century. Immediately after that he decided to enter in the field of Teachers Training (B.Ed) to fulfill the deficiency of teachers for improvement of standard of primary education in U.P. & other states.

Since he is a qualified engineer, he is fully aware and appreciates the difficulties encountered by the students from poor families to become engineers. Therefore, he decided to establish an Engineering College with a view to offer an opportunity to students from rural areas to become engineers. This dream was realized in 2007, when the group established a fully-fledged engineering college ''Venkateshwara Institute of Technology'' (VIT) over the last few years, the group further expanded in the fields of Teacher's Education, Pharmaceuticals, Polytechnic, Physical Education, Library Science and Management. The Venkateshwara Group has also adopted various measures to provide financial assistance to the meritorious students belonging to financially weaker sections of the society.
