The Pratap Public Library has a host of books, reference books of various subjects also widely used by the students of Universities. It subscribes to 14 daily and 35 weekly, several fortnightly and monthly magazines. New books are added year after year to the 60,000 or more collection of books.

Dr. R.S. Bhatia was a philanthropist. His altruistic attitude towards social issues is truly noteworthy. He was an ardent social worker. He patronizes many social institutions. He was always in the forefront in reaching out in times of peril, natural calamities or disasters. Distressed by the misfortunes of the Tsunami victims, the cyclone affected parts of Orissa and the earthquake at Bhuj, Dr. R.S. Bhatia participated large heartedly in rebuilding lives. His contribution to social causes cannot be put in words. He was a rationalist and is always concerned about rooting out superstitions and ills of the society.

Therapies and radiations had sapped his strength and energy, but his undaunting and undismayed courage surges him to carry on and on. His hearing problem is something he used to say he had to live with. His forceful presence at every function infuses strength and inspiration to one and all.
His philosophy of education enthuses his team of educators and teachers to take the students beyond the classroom. Dr. R.S.Bhatia said, doing is the heart and core of education. He summed it up with the oft-quoted line:
I hear, I forget;
I see, I learn;
I do, I understand.
Even at the age of 84, he says, he still has miles to go and promises to keep.
President
The formation of attitudes and values among children is an area that most people in the educational field do not give due emphasis. But the values and attitudes formed in a child during his school days have a very far-reaching consequence in his life and his contribution to the society. So inculcation and development of the right attitudes and values in our children has a vital role to play during the period of schooling.
The schools are establishments to instruct the young with the right type of values, attitudes and dispositions that would support the society. In many ways they can teach and reinforce in our children attitudes towards law, government, citizenship etc. Our schools can go miles ahead to achieve the aim of development of attitudes and values with the co-operation of the eminent faculty.
