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.

“But for the national welfare, it is urgent to realize that the minorities do think, and think about something other than the race problem.”
—Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
“Midway the lake we took on board two manly-looking middle-aged men.... I talked with one of them, telling him that I had come all this distance partly to see where the white pine, the Eastern stuff of which our houses are built, grew, but that on this and a previous excursion into another part of Maine I had found it a scarce tree; and I asked him where I must look for it. With a smile, he answered that he could hardly tell me.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
