'''St. Joseph's PU College, Anekal''', India, was founded by the [[Society of Jesus]] in 2010 in [[Anekal]] town, a suburb of [[Bangalore]]. It offers two years of [[Pre-university course|pre-university]] education to an underserved rural population. A [[feeder school]] is the Jesuit St. Joseph School, Anekal less than 2 kilometers away.<br />
<br />
In 2015 there were 542 students studying in both I and II PU in different streams: PCMB, PCMC, HEBA, CEBA and HEPS. There are a total of 28 staff members.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.karnatakajesuits.org/sjpucanekal.html|title=Karnataka Jesuits|website=www.karnatakajesuits.org|access-date=2017-01-19}}</ref><br />
<br />
[[Hinduism|Hindu]] activists have attacked the students and administrators three times, with seeming impunity under the [[Bharatiya Janata Party|BJP]] government in Karnataka. The student body consists of 60% [[Dalit]] Hindus with the remainder [[Christians]] and [[Muslims]].<ref>[http://www.asianews.it/news-en/Karnataka:-Jesuits-and-schools-targeted-by-Hindu-nationalists-23949.html ''Asia News'' on attack by ultra-nationalists.
