KCT (UK) & KRRC launched the project of Computer Literacy centre for the affectees of the earthquake at Muzaffarabad. The main objective of this project is providing professional skills to the youth of affected area. During our need & assessment we came to know that there is none of the institute in Muzaffarabad who is offering the professional courses, and majority of the institutes were totally demolished during the huge disaster earthquake. If any student wants to get professional skills of computer he has to go Islamabad but the community of disaster area maximally belongs to middle class families so they cannot bear the expenditure during studying in Islamabad or some where else in Pakistan. KCT provide them this opportunity to get modern education in there own homeland.

After the completion of first badge of IT-Basic on 21 June, 2006, CLC decided to launch the new package of Graphic Designing and IT-Basic. CLC started collecting Admission forms from 22 June to 30 June. The offering courses were IT-Basic (01 month) and Graphic Designing (03 months). The courses contents were as below;

Kashmir Record & Research Council (KRRC) developed as a consequence of the activities of Kashmiri students studying in different medical colleges, who   planned to publish a magazine to provide all the information related to Kashmir in a very concise volume. They set up a committee with the name”Inter Medical Collegiate Kashmiri Magazine Committee" in 1984. It was headed by Dr. Ahsan Raheel, Dr. Khawaja Ghulam Mustafa and Dr. Mumtaz Gilgiti was also actively involved in it. This committee published the Magazine and promoted other student activities along with their studies. In 1990, these young doctors in collaboration with other Kashmiri professionals and activists set together and formed a small organization,   Kashmir Record & Research Cell (KRRC), later its name was changed to Kashmir Record & Research Council. (KRRC) KRRC was established to achieve the following objectives.

 

• To maintain the record of Kashmir History from ancient to modern times, particularly contemporary history of political, economic, legal, social and cultural aspects.
