Hyderabad (Sind) National Collegiate Board
The Hyderabad (Sind) National Collegiate Board (HSNCB) was founded by Principal K. M. Kundnani from the British India province of Sind which became part of the Muslim state of Pakistan carved out as part of the Partition of British India in 1947.
The first college established by this Board was the Rishi Dayaram National College or R. D. National College, more commonly known as the "National College", located on Linking Road in Bandra, a suburb of Mumbai (then Bombay).
R.D. National College was originally founded in 1922 in the city of Hyderabad in the then Sind Division of the Bombay Presidency (i.e. province) of British India by the Sindhi speaking Hindu community, under the inspiration of Dr. Annie Besant and Rishi Dayaram Gidumal, a Sindhi Hindu religious leader. After Partition, Mr. K.M. Kundnani, who had been its principal, re-founded it in Bandra, Mumbai in 1949, with critical assistance from Advocate H.G. Advani.

Famous quotes containing the words national and/or board:
“The religion of England is part of good-breeding. When you see on the continent the well-dressed Englishman come into his ambassador’s chapel and put his face for silent prayer into his smooth-brushed hat, you cannot help feeling how much national pride prays with him, and the religion of a gentleman.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“During depression the world disappears. Language itself. One has nothing to say. Nothing. No small talk, no anecdotes. Nothing can be risked on the board of talk. Because the inner voice is so urgent in its own discourse: How shall I live? How shall I manage the future? Why should I go on?”
—Kate Millett (b. 1934)
