Honourable Shree Shankarlal Jijidas Patel, the formerly president of Shree Gozaria Kelavani Mandal and most fondly known as ‘Shankardada’ in the Nima college-family, carried out constructive activities during his presidential tenure. His feeling was that of establishing a college for girls under the umbrella of many educational institutions run by Shree Gozaria Kelavani Mandal in order that the daughters of Gozaria and the adjoining poverty-stricken villages might not remain destitute of higher education. Shankardada, the veteran representative of generous and benevolent family of Gozaria, repeatedly used to tell his associates of the managing body:
“AFTER DEATH TOO I WILL BECOME A CROW LONGING FOR THE FIRST RATE INSTITUTE OF HIGHER EDUCATION FOR MY DAUGHTERS AND SIT IN OUR CAMPUS UNLESS -UNTIL IT IS ESTABLISHED IN GOZARIA.”
His idea was taken into further consideration by the members of the managing body and NIMA GIRLS ARTS COLLEGE came into being. Having received the ideological approval from the Department of Education, Government of Gujarat, Shree Gozaria Kelavani Mandal started this college on July 03, 1997. In short, the result of sincerest efforts of establishing a college for girls in Gozaria right from the year of 1991 to the existing form of an HEI is……….
