The
Rajkumar College, Rajkot,
is one of the oldest schools
whose foundation stone was
laid in 1868. The college
has a flourishing history
of 136 years and has had
students from all walks
of life. The college was
founded for the education
of the Princely order by
the Princes and Chiefs of
Kathiawar for the education
of their sons and relations.
In 1938,
on the initiatives of its
founding members, the College
became a Public School -
the first such college to
do so. The college itself
is also a founding member
of the Indian Public Schools
Conference. |
