‘Maji Aamdar Shri Babasaheb Patil Sarudkar Shikshan Sanstha’ Sarud, the then ‘Kanasa Khora Shikshan Prasarak Mandal’ Sarud was founded in 1980 at Virale, a small village located in the distant and isolated part of Shauwadi taluka by the Ex- MLA Shri Babasaheb Patil and other visionaries namely, Late. Balasaheb Indulakar, Prof. Chandrakumar Nalage, Late. Vinayak Majagaonkar with a sole mission, ‘Kuni Na Raho Durbal Adnya, Mhanuni Ha Shikshan Yadnya’
(Education for the unlearned and the deprived) in order to provide secondary education to the poor and needy students coming from hilly and backward part of the tahsil.. There were few primary schools and high schools and no college in the region for students to learn. To give learning access, the Management without wasting much time established ‘Udayagiri Vidyaniketan’ its first high school at Virale itself in 1981 followed by Jugai High School at Yelwan Jugai , another remote village in 1982. As there was no college in the entire taluka and students had to go to Kolhapur which was then hardly possible for them due to their poor economic condition, the Management then established this college after the name of great Maratha king Chh. Shivaji Maharaj and social reformer Chh. Shahu Maharaj as ‘Shri Shiv Shahu Mahavidyalaya’ at Sarud in 1983. It was then in the year 2000 that the Management established ‘Indira Gandhi High School’ at Sarud.
These centers of secondary, higher secondary and higher education proved to be bliss for the aspiring students of the far away locality under the visionary role of the Management.
