OUR HISTORY :
The existing institutions could not impart education in the field of Commerce. This became the main reason for students to leave the city which caused many inconveniences and unnecessary expenditure. With extraordinary foresight for the potential of commerce education the famous educational institution of Wardha, “Shiskha Mandal” diligently pursued the establishing of a Commerce College. With the benevolent charity of the famous industrialist Seth Govindram Seksaria the dream was realised in 1942 with the establishment of G.S. College in 1940 at Wardha, in 1945 at Nagpur and in 1948 at Jabalpur.
PHILOSOPHY OF SHIKSHA MANDAL:
Deeply influenced by the Gandhian Philosophy of Truth, Non-Violence and Discipline, Shiksha Mandal has adhered to the principles laid down by the late Mahatma Gandhi. His seven social sins have helped us to surge ahead in the field of education and development.
- Politics without Principles
- Wealth Without Work
- Pleasure Without Conscience
- Knowledge Without Character
- Commerce Without Morality
- Science Without Humanity
- Worship Without Sacrifice
LEVEL OF EDUCATION :
The College is the largest center for commerce education in Madhya Pradesh. Following the norms of Rani Durgavati Vishwavidyalaya, Jabalpur, the College imparts education in the field of commerce – B.Com., B.B.A., B.C.A., B.Ed., M.Com., B.com (Hon), M.com (HRA), M. A. (Economics) and Management
MEDIUM OF INSTRUCTION :
Keeping in view the requirement and conveniences of the students, separate Hindi and English Medium Classes have been arranged.

PARENT INSTITUTE
SHIKSHA MANDAL, WARDHA
Shiksha Mandal” the renowned national education society, was established in 1914 at Wardha (Maharashtra) by Seth Jamnalal Bajaj and Shri Shrikrishan Jajoo with the twin objectives of spreading nationalistic ideas and education among the youth. Shri Jamnalal Bajaj remained its chairman for over 15 years.
During Shiskha Mandal’s Silver Jubilee celebrations in 1937, a national seminar on education was convened under the chairmanship of Mahatma Gandhi. All top national leaders and educationists attended it. It was with the initiative of Acharya Shrimannarayanji Agrawal (who later became a member of the planning Commission, Indian Ambassador to Nepal and Governor of Gujarat) and a generous donation by Seth Govindram Seksaria that G.S. College of Commerce was established in 1940 at Wardha, followed by the establishment of G.S. College of Commerce and Economics at Nagpur in 1945 and at Jabalpur in 1948.
Shiksha Mandal, is functioning and flourishing under the able guidance of its President Shri Rahul Bajaj, Chairman Shri Sanjay Bhargaw.
