In order to provide quality management education, he established Department of Management Studies on 3rd July 1973. Dr. V.V. Bedekar fulfilled the dreams of his father Dr. V.N. Bedekar in the academic year 2005-06 by establishing Dr. V.N. Bedekar Institute of Management Studies (DR VN BRIMS).
His drive and leadership resulted in the institute getting approval from AICTE to conduct the two-year full-time MMS program. Due to his determination and vision, the small sapling planted by Dr V.N.
