ABOUT THE FOUNDER OF THE INSTITUTE

Maharshi' Dr. Dhondo

Keshav Karve (April 18,
1858 - November 9,
1962) was a preeminent
social reformer of his
time in India in the field
of welfare of womankind. Maharshi Karve was one of the pioneers
in India in breaking with extraordinary fortitude and perseverance
the above harsh social mores against womankind. He promoted
education of women and freedom for widows to remarry if they
wished to do so. The Government of India recognized his reform
work by awarding him Padma Vibhushan in 1955 and highest
civilian award, Bhārat Ratna in 1958.
The work of Pandita Ramabai inspired Karve to dedicate his life to
the cause of female education, and the work of Pandit Vishnushāstri
and Pandit Iswar Chandra Vidyāsāgar inspired him to work for
uplifting the status of widows. Writings of Herbert Spencer had also
highly influenced him.
In 1893, Karve founded Widhawā-Wiwāhottejak
Mandali, which, besides encouraging marriages of widows, also
helped the needy children of widows. In 1895, the institution was
renamed as Widhawā-Wiwāha-Pratibandh-Niwārak Mandali -
Society to Remove Obstacles to Marriages of Widows. In 1896,
Karve established a Hindu Widows' Home Association and started
in Hingane, a village then in the outskirts of PuneMaharashtra,
Mahilāshram, a shelter and a school for women, including widows.
He started Mahilā Vidyālaya in 1907; the following year, he started
Nishkām Karma Math - Social Service Society to train workers for
the Widows Home and the Mahila Vidyalaya.
 When Karve had started his shelter and school for
women, including widows, in 1896, he had to start it in the remote
village of Hingane outside the city of Pune because the dominant
orthodox Brahmin community in the city had ostracized him for his
reformatory activities.
Maharshi Karve stree Shikshan Samstha, a 114
years old samstha was established in 1896 by a great visionary and
social worker Bharat Ratna Maharshi Dhondo Keshav Karve, to
provide shelter to destitute women.
After reading information about Japan Women's
University in Tokyo, Japan, Karve felt inspired to establish in 1916
in Pune the first university for women in India, with just five
students. The curriculum was tailored to the aptitudes of women.
During 1917-1918, Karve established a Training College for Primary
School Teachers and another school for girls, named Kanyā Shālā.
In 1920, an industrialist and philanthropist from Mumbai, Sir
Vithaldās Thāckersey, donated Karve's university 1.5 million Indian
rupees --a substantial sum in those days-- and the university was
then renamed as Shreemati Nāthibāi Dāmodar Thāckersey Indian
Women's University or SNDT Women's University. The SNDT
University and other educational institutions for women started by
Karve In 1931; currently cover the spectrum ranging from pre-
primary schools to colleges in humanities, sciences, engineering,
architecture, and business management.
In 1936, Karve started the Maharashtra Village
Primary Education Society with the goal of opening primary schools
in villages, which had no schools run by the District Local Boards.
He also encouraged maintenance of reading habits of adults in
villages. In 1944, he founded the Samatā Sangh - Association for
the Promotion of Human Equality. Besides dedicating his life to the
emancipation of women in India, Karve stood for the abolition of the
caste system and the curse of untouchability in the Hindu society.
Karve wrote two autobiographical works:
Ātmawrutta (1928) in Marathi, and Looking Back (1936) in English.
He ended the latter with the words: Here ends the story of my life.

She had cherished a dream to spread the nursing

profession far and wide through education and publications.
