The Hyderabad (Sind) National Collegiate Board was managing the National College in Hyderabad (Sind) long before the partition of India. The Board was associated with the National Movement for the Independence of India. After the Partition of the country in 1947, the members of the Sindhi Hindu Community were compelled to abandon the college and migrate to India. Late Vidyasagar Principal K. M. Kundnani was the Principal at that time. After the partition of the country in 1947, Late Vidyasagar Principal K. M. Kundnani appreciated the need of his teaching fraternity and the community and initiated efforts for starting a college in Mumbai. He received active support and encouragement from Late Barrister Hotchand G. Advani. Both of them together founded the Hyderabad (Sind) National Collegiate Board in 1949 in Mumbai. Late Barrister H. G. Advani was the Founder President and Late Vidyasagar Principal K. M. Kundnani was the Founder Secretary and Founder Principal of the first college started by the Board and known as the Rishi Dayaram National College, Bandra, Mumbai –400050.
Today the HSNC Board is managing and administrating 25 institutes. All the Colleges under the Board are affiliated to the University of Mumbai, are approved by the State Government, and recognized by AICTE and Bar Council of India, as the case may be. As is the need of the day, HSNC Board is promoting interaction with industry to upgrade Post Graduate and Research facilities which give credibility to our performance and results for consultancy. Special attention is also being given to placements and campus interviews.
It will be in the fitness of things to highlight the fact that the Board has fought a long drawn out constitutional battle up to the level of the Supreme Court of India since 1993 to 2005 to protect the rights of our Sindhi linguistic minority guaranteed by the Article 30(1) of the Constitution of India. HSNC Board has succeeded in getting the same.
