'Rhenock Educational Society is a pioneer Educational Society of Sikkim. The head office of the Society is situated at Fiveways, Deorali, Tadong, Sikkim - 737102.Rhenock is a small hamlet in the eastern part of Sikkim known to the outside world for its exotic flowers.
Prior to 1950, a visionary man from Rhenock my father Late Damber Singh Chhetri used to ask me to teach the neighbours to write their names for using in any transaction instead of thumb impression. His idea of creating a literate society was later boosted by Government of India’s ‘Each One Teach One’ and ‘Adult Education’ programmes. This encouraged me to develop educational institution and serve the society, and in 1990 Rhenock Educational Society was established, with the help of like minded people, to spread education amongst the masses.
Immediately in the same year Himalayan Pharmacy Institute was established, and in 1994 a General Degree College by the name Damber Singh College and in 2003 Harkamaya College of Education in the name of the father and mother of the Founder and Director, Dr.H.P.Chhetri was established.
This coming year the management is coming up with a school of international standard at Rhenock, East Sikkim. |
