The SDME Society was formed almost four decades ago to promote education in Ujire, a remote village in Belthangady Taluk of D.K. District. The society has been making rapid and long strides in imparting education through schools and colleges in the Karnataka State. \u00a0Presently the Society is running more than 45 institutions of both professional and non professional institutions offering Degree and post graduation Degree courses. It is evident in the institutions of SDME Society that there is a unique blend of traditional and modern approaches in teaching methods. This is indeed an outcome of the great far-sighted vision of the committed leader Dr. D. Veerendra Heggade about the spiritually and socially transformed society.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p><p>The contribution of Sri Kshethra Dharmasthala through imparting value \u2013 based education has been very well received as Dr. Heggade is the guiding and driving force behind it. The cherished dream of this leader to impart pragmatic skills to the youths has found another vein through this institution. The latest\u00a0\u00a0 additions S.D.M.
