About Shri Surat Jilla Sahkari Bank Commerce College, Olpad:

Shri Surat Jilla Sahkari Bank Commerce College, Olpad was established in 1993 managed under Olpad Taluka Azad Din Smarak Kelavani Mandal. Then, arose the need of higher education.

Being located in a backward area, it was not possible for all the students to reach a far place like Surat and pursue higher education. This Herculean task was taken up by the freedom fighter and leader, a visionary and sage Late Shri Pramodbhai K. Desai freedom fighter and elder brother of Ex. Chief Minister Shri Hitendrabhai Desai. He has sacrificed his whole life to serve the common people and he has been considered as the father of the co-operative sector of Gujarat state.

With him united the other visionaries and farmers under the separate trust of Shri P.K. Desai Kelavni Mandal.

They planted a tree of knowledge in the waste land which was donated by a philanthropist farmer under the separate trust of Shri P.K. Desai Kelavani Mandal located at Shri Surat Jilla Sahakari Spinning Mill Vidhyasankul, Hathisa Road, Olpad.

The first effort of this institution was the materialization of the Higher Educational institution viz. Shri S.J.S.B. Commerce College and Shri S.S.K.U. Arts College, Olpad.
