Inspired by the motivating principles of women education and women development as lived and preached by the great saintly lady Behan Devki Devi Ji, this college was established in the year 1971 by the Management of S.S. Jain Girls School Committee (Regd.). Behan Devki Devi Ji was an eminent educationist of her times. She was the founder principal of Jain Girls Senior Secondary School, Ludhiana, who always cherished the dream of providing higher education to the children of this backward industrial Area of Ludhiana irrespective of class, caste, religion or language. The dream envisaged nearly fifty years ago is now a reality a vibrant, ever growing institution with a goal of spreading education among masses. All this is happening under the able administration of dynamic and progressive members of the Managing Committee of the college.
