The Sarasvati IKS Centre focuses on IKS based approaches for enhancing Knowledge paradigms deeply rooted in Indian culture and heritage. IKS in the fields of spirituality, Ayurveda, philosophy, sciences, mathematics, polity, governance, ethics, economics and others offer very useful knowledge bases for contemporary branches of study for application of public benefits. SLC Sarasvati IKS Centre, by focusing on these core issues, aims to contribute original research in different domains so as to encourage young stakeholders to understand and conserve the rich historical, cultural and philosophical heritage of India and to propagate it for wider benefit. With this, the Centre would fulfill the mandate of NEP 2020 and would further contribute towards the dissemination of IKS. Corresponding to this mission, Sarasvati IKS Centre & IQAC in collaboration with ICSSR organized an International Conference titled as “Indian Knowledge Systems: Integration & Internationalization” on 14- 15 July, 2022. The Centre also completed the AICTE sponsored Internship Project for students “An Action based Study to Explore & Connect Select IKS in Contemporary Discourses & Practices” in 2023 under which the college enrolled scholars and offered them internships for compiling research on IKS in different subject fields resulting in the publication of the book Bharatiya Gyan Parampara: Discourses and Traditions.

In October 2023, the Sarasvati IKS Centre expanded its initiatives by launching Vimarsh (The Reading Club) as per the mandate of NEP 2020 that fosters intellectual growth and holistic development among students. This platform is designed to encourage in-depth discussions on a wide range of topics that not only support academic excellence but also equip students with the skills and knowledge necessary for competitive exams, leadership roles, and engagement with current global affairs. Through Vimarsh, students are provided with opportunities to critically explore contemporary issues, develop global perspectives, and strengthen their understanding of diverse subjects, all of which are essential for their personal and professional growth. The inaugural event of the club, the Vimarsh Student-Faculty Summit, was held on 16 October 2023.

The Sarasvati IKS Centre has many more academic and research initiatives in the pipeline which will be taken up and implemented in the coming academic sessions.
