Church History
This Mission station was started on February 22, 1970. Fr. George Thykkattil and Jose Maliekal were the pioneer missionaries. In 1970 St. Peter's School was opened at Ranjit Nagar in a rented building. Fr. Alexander, OFM Cap, Rector of St. Lawrence Seminary, Agra, was taking care of Bharatpur till 1976. The school was shifted thrice and finally to its present location. Fr. Thomas Paramundayil purchased 12 bighas of land and owing to his tireless efforts the school building came up.
