Quite often in the past Sahyadri had the privilege of hosting several A-list people at the campus. Dr. D L Vijay Kumar, President-Congress Committee, Chickmagalur was another esteemed guest who graced Sahyadri. He was accompanied by Mr. Shivaswamy, General Secretary-Congress Party. Apart from being a politician, Dr. Vijay Kumar is a renowned doctor and runs a 150-bed hospital.

Our Chairman – Mr. Manjunath Bhandary had the privilege of accompanying both Dr. Vijay Kumar and Mr. Shivaswamy around the campus. He talked to the guests about the great achievements at the campus. The guests visited various innovation centres and startups.

The guests on the other hand were fascinated with the student-centric initiatives undertaken by the college and had nothing but deep admiration for the unique education system established at Sahyadri.

Dr. D L Vijay Kumar is none other than the brother of Dr. Dr. D L Prabhakara, Director-Sahyadri Educational Institutions. Both the brothers are the backbone of this institution and have played a key role in its growth.
