Principal GHG Harparkash College of Education for Women, Sidhwan Khurd (Ludhiana) 4 ABOUT OUR COLLEGE Sidhwan Khurd, a small village in Ludhiana district situated at a distance of 30 kilometers from Ludhiana on Ludhiana- Ferozepur Road, is widely acclaimed as a centre of Women education in rural India. The genesis of this Educational Complex lies in a girls primary school established by Bhai Sahib Bhai Narain Singh Ji and Smt. Ram Kaur Ji for girls of all castes and religions, in the cherished memory of their son Kaka Ujjagar Singh. The son of Bhai Sahib Bhai Narain Singh Ji was snatched away at the age of nine, from the parents by the cruel hands of fate in 1908. It was during these days of grief, Bhai Sahib thought of educating his daughter Bibi Harparkash Kaur. But there was no provision of education for girls in this area in those days. It was this thought that sowed the seed of education in this small village on May 9, 1909. A primary school that was started in 1909 with four girls under a tree has now blossomed into the cluster of five flourishing institutions providing education to more than five thousand students. The primary school was raised to High School in 1934. Before breathing his last Bhai Sahib created a trust named Sri Guru Hargobind Ujjagar Hari Trust and dedicated his entire property to the sacred cause of female education. He was the first President of the Trust. After his death on 19th August, 1944, Mata Ram Kaur became the Second President. She breathed her last on 19th August 1950 and Bibi Harparkash Kaur, illustrious daughter of her parents became the Third President of the Trust. Devoted as she was to the cause of Women Education, the institution covered many milestones under her patronage. In 1950 a Degree College and in 1955 a Basic Training College came into existence. Bibiji‘s contributions were well recognized by the society and the government for spreading education of girls in rural India. Bibi Harparkash Kaur Ji was honoured with Padam Shri by the Govt of India in 1961. She was the first women recipient of this honour from the state of Punjab. She was steering the institutions ahead with missionary zeal and dedication when the call came from heaven and she left for her eternal abode on 5th August 1965. In her sacred memory the training College was renamed as GHG Harparkash College of GHG Harparkash College of Education for Women, Sidhwan Khurd (Ludhiana) 5 Education for Women in 1966. S. Mohinder Singh Sidhwan took over as President of Trust after the departure of Padam Shri Bibi Harparkash Kaur. Under his visionary, intelligent and dedicated leadership, the institutions thrived with a great speed. In 1969, M.Ed classes were started in the College of Education. In 1971, classes in M.A. History and Science (Non Medical) and 1972 Science (Medical) were introduced in Khalsa College for Women. Under his stewardship, there was quantitative expansion as well as qualitative improvement in the Institutions. He left for his heavenly abode on 19th June 1976.
