Bhanwar jat, an illiterate famer from Tilonia was
given the responsibility to construct the 30,000 square feet college
campus. Working along with 12 other "barefoot architects",
it took three years of them to complete the campus (1986-1989).
Only low-cost building materials were used: no cement, wood, only
plywood (hard board), lime, sand, chipped rock and stone.
Rafiq a village blacksmith, fabricated the doors,
fames and windows. Using Buckminister Fuller's design, he has
fabricated and installed over 150 geodesic domes out of scrap
metal, to be used as schools, dispensaries, telephone booths,
community centers, and meeting places for village women.
The design of the campus was made by Neehar Raina
and the barefoot architects constructed the whole campus.
