Mahakali Polytechnic Institute (MPI) was established through a collaborative initiative between Bhimdatta Municipality and Mahakali Provincial Hospital. It was formally established under the Mahakali Polytechnic Establishment and Operation Act, 2078, which received approval from the municipal assembly on 2078/10/12. The institution is affiliated with the Council for Technical Education and Vocational Training (CTEVT) and aims to provide affordable technical education to students from underprivileged, rural, and marginalized communities.
Mahakali Polytechnic Institute, located in Ward No. 4 of Bhimdatta Municipality, Kanchanpur District, is a non-profit academic institution focused on expanding educational access for lower-middle-income families. It significantly improves the educational status of students from economically challenged backgrounds, particularly in Sudurpaschim Province.

MPI was founded on 2077 Kartik 26 to meet the growing demand for quality technical education in this remote region. This joint venture aims to serve students from economically poor, Dalit, and freed Kamaiya communities. We are committed to equipping them with practical knowledge for employment and entrepreneurship.
The Council for Technical Education and Vocational Training (CTEVT), through its 183rd meeting, authorized MPI to run seven programs. Initially, due to time constraints, only four programs were launched in the academic session of 2078:
Diploma in Pharmacy (40 seats)
PCL in General Medicine (40 seats)
Certificate in Medical Laboratory Technology (30 seats)
Diploma in Ophthalmic Science (40 seats)
We continue our mission with commitment and purpose.
