Dhanbad, Jharkhand
The college was established in 1964 on the death anniversary of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, the Prime Minister of India. With the efforts of late Hari Prasad Mahto, the villagers of Kheshmi and late Bandhu Mahto of Mathadih and others donated the land on which the college building issituated. From the very beginning, our mission has been ambitious yet simple: bring quality university education to deserving students—especially from socially, economically backward, and underprivileged communities in this region of Jharkhand. Over the decades, that mission has guided everything we do.
To be a leading institution in Eastern India known for academic excellence, ethical values, social justice, and for shaping citizens who are capable, compassionate, and confident.
Provide accessible, inclusive higher education — especially to students from Scheduled Tribes, Scheduled Castes, Other Backward Classes, and economically disadvantaged backgrounds — so they can transform their lives and communities.
PNM College is affiliated with Sidhu Kanhu University, and we provide a range of programmes to help students grow academically, physically, and morally. Our goal isn't just to impart knowledge — it's to help you discover your potential, build your talent, and prepare you for whatever path you choose: higher studies, professional careers, entrepreneurship, or social impact.
