National Urdu High School And Junior College

Ancient historical city of Kalyan was called Glshan-abad in past. Later it came to be called kalian. Muslims have played a vital role in shaping history of Kalyan.Before independence, Kalyan had no access to education for muslims except Arabic madarsas and primary schools. Aspirants had to travel long distance towards Mumbai and Bhiwandi, which was possible only for a rich few. A majority of poor muslims were deprived of this opportunity. In those times, parents from all the stratas of society utterly negligent about education. As a result a whole vacuum of illiterate, uneducated, incivilized citizens who couldn’t handle their own legacy and wealth was created, which poised a great problem to our nation and was also really dangerous for the future of muslims community in Kalyan.
