F r o m t h e E d i t o r ’ s D e s kLet us Talk...

There has been a long felt need of dialogue between the members of SVKM Parivar. In the past,

members have often voiced their desire to have a common platform during meetings and par-

ticularly, during AGMs. With this in mind, this house journal has been introduced only for pri-

vate circulation among members. The Editorial Team is glad to introduce the SVKM newsletter

once again after a very long gap. This newsletter will display -

- What was SVKM

- What is SVKM

- What will SVKM be

By designing various sections, we have made a humble beginning to connect the history, the

present activities and the future vision. The section ‘Past Presidents of SVKM’ will give details

of each president right from the beginning, whereas ‘Down the Memory Lane’ will revisit the

history of SVKM. ‘Looking Ahead’ will consist of the future plans of SVKM and the rest of the

sections will keep you updated about the ongoing events i.e. the present.

While this is a launch issue, the editorial team looks forward to presenting many more issues on

a quarterly basis in the years to come. In fact, we are already planning to introduce a

Gujarati section in the next issue. We shall strive to improvise each issue and bring forth the

best before you.

Shri Bhagwandas Girijashankar Bhatt

Shri Bhagwandas Girijashankar Bhatt were the first president of Shri Vile Parle Kevalvani Mandal.

He served the mandal as the president from 1934 to 1937. He was very committed to the cause

of the Mandal and did his best to work towards the betterment of the trust. He presided over im-

portant matters such as the establishment of the Rashtriya Shala, the formation and the registra-

tion of the Mandal as an education society among many other

commendable things that occured back in the day. SVKM has come a long way and from one

president to another, every single one of them has devotedly contributed to the cause. They have

all together created the history the mandal now so fondly remembers.

Shri Bhagwandas Girijashankar Bhatt remains one of the many jewels embedded firmly into the

history of SVKM.

has always been a step ahead. Our Food & Beverage department is managed by Mr. Kaikobad Bokdawalla

Looking Ahead!

SVKM School, Dhule began its very first session in June this year. The school lies right next to

SVKM University which is advantageous for its students. They will not only have access to the

amenities of the university but will also have access to higher learning. The pre-primary section

has already begun at SVKM School and it shall upgrade to primary from 2018 onwards. Mrs

Sunanda Menon is the founding principal of this highly facilitated English medium ICSE School.

As of now, the focus is on building a child friendly environment with the help of pedagogy experts.

SVKM University will be spread across 250,000 square feet of land. It will have amenities such as

playing fields, open air theatre, cycle stand etc. The recruitment for teaching and non-teaching

staff is in process. The university and the school positively look forward to a promising future.

Construction in Full Swing at NMIMS BengaluruCampus

NMIMS Bengaluru Campus under construction

The campus of NMIMS Bengaluru is SVKM’s effort to spread southwards. It is located in the heart

of the city and is spread across an area of 8.5 acres. The campus is also divided into phase 1 and

phase 2. While it is highly-facilitated, it also blends with nature in every way. For, the engineers

have designed it such that, that there is in-flow of natural light and air and at the same time the

students have access to everything from wireless LAN to video based classrooms. Apart from that,

the professors are the best of the best in their respective industries

to focus on innovative programs customised for the state of Indore. Recognising the fact that the

state has a large number of tribal areas and is an agricultural state, the subject areas are going to

be Biodiversity, Renewable Energy etc. Other than that, it will also have regular programs such as

BBA, B.SC Economics etc. This campus spread across 25 acres of land is definitely bound to

flourish. The project has taken a while to go operational but now that it is on the floors, things

are progressing smoothly.

Sri Bhaidas Bhuta

1934 –Sri Bhaidas Bhuta made a handsome donation and at the same time, SVKM was regis-

tered as an education society. Shri Jinnabhai joined Rashtriya Shala as the Principal.

Down the Memory LaneThe First Decade!

1922 – The foundation stone of Rashtriya Shala was laid by Srimati Kasturba Gandhi

1930 – Rashtriya Shala was registered

1932 – The school was under pressure from the British Government. In the wake of the Charkha

Movement, they were asked to shut down. Mr. Khan, the local police chief who had a liking for

the educational institution and didn’t want the school to close, suggested that he formally

arrest two members who will accept the responsibility of conducting illegal or objectionable

activities while the shala kept running.

1936 – Srimati Goklibai donated INR 50,000 to Rashtriya Shala. Thus, the school was renamed

Gokalibai Punamchand Pitamber High School as a mark of respect for the donation. Honorary

Secratory Shri Sunandan Divatia was kind to let us know that Shri Bhaidas Bhuta had a significant

hand behind convincing Goklibai to make a donation.

1937 – The proposal of shifting the location of Goklibai High School to Dadabhai Road from

Rashtriyashala Road was met with resistance since it was inconvenient for the students to travel

to Dadabhai Road which wasn’t very developed back then. Shri Jinabhai Desai was also given a

teary eyed farewell by one and all.

1939 – After the Mandal members offered to resign and said that they’d be happy to let others

run the mandal, the residents saw that the intent behind the shifting was good and hence,

relented to it. Thus, Goklibai stands where it does today! Honorary Secratory Sri Sunandan

Divatia also told us that important trustees such as Shri CT Sanghvi and Shri Chatrabhuj Narsee

have been the alumni of Goklibai.
