About Seedling
The group started its journey with the Seedling Nursery founded in the year 1983 by Mrs. Mohini Bakshi along with eminent people from various walks of life. Encouraged by the steady progress of the Nursery School, the Samiti established Seedling Public School (a co-educational institution) at Jawahar Nagar, Jaipur in the year 1992 to impart education needed for an all round development of physical and mental capabilities, characterand personality of the school going children.
In April 1997 the Seedling Group spread its wings to establish a second branch at Mahaveer Nagar-ll, Durgapura -Seedling Modern High School. Both branches are today recognized as premier educational institutions of the Pink City affiliated to CBSE, New Delhi and offering 10 + 2 pattern of education.
Emboldened by the success of two schools the Group expanded its horizon by establishing the Seedling Academy of Design Technology and Management (SADTM)in the year 2002, for enterprising youth who wished to make a career in emerging areas including Biotechnology, Management, Computer Science, Mass Communication & Engineering. With the State Government’s policies indicating plans to promote the industrial base, Jaipur is considered as the next technology destination of the country. The Group in keeping with these plans, established another institute of higher education, the Seedling Institute for Integrated Learning & Advanced Studies (SIILAS) offering Five Year Integrated Courses in Life Sciences, Information Technology and Commerce in the year 2006. This institute is today also offering a Post Graduate Diploma in Business Management, equivalentto M.B.A.
One of the biggest achievements of the Group has however come with the establishment of Jaipur National University, Jaipur under Act No. 5 of 2008 on 29th of March 2008 of the Government of Rajasthan. The University which includes both SADTM and SIILAS under its umbrella offers a plethora of innovative courses through 14 schools i.e. School of Engineering and Technology, School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, School of Business and Management, School of Life Sciences, School of Computer and Systems Sciences, School of Hotel Management and Catering Technology, School of Theatre, Film and Television Technology, School of Law and Governance, School of Mass Communication, Media and Journalism, School of Social Sciences, School of Education, School of Languages, Literature & Society and School of Basic Sciences.
Besides the schools and a university at Jaipur, the Group has established two schools at Udaipur in 2002. One is Seedling Modern Public School at Sapetia. It is a Senior Secondary School affiliated to C.B.S.E and provides instructions on the 10+2 pattern.
