In early Sixties when Ranchi and its adjoining districts were in the grip of severe drought, Ramakrishna Mission Ashrama, Morabadi, organised a relief work for the distressed poor. During that period it was strongly realized that unless the poor and illiterate farmers are trained in need based agriculture and allied technologies supported by group action they can not  be made self-reliant and  also would never be able to counter similar adverse  condition in future. In order to fulfill the above requirements ‘Divyayan’(meaning Divine Way) a novel integrated rural development model was conceived and launched by this centre in 1969

 

A residential training centre for tribal and rural youth in agriculture and its related activities was started in 1969 under the name Divyayan.

 

In 1977 this residential training centre was recognised by ICAR as a Krishi Vigyan Kendra.

For the period 1996-97 it was awarded as the best KVK.
