History

The 7th Nizam of Hyderabad, Mir Osman Ali Khan had allotted 54 acres of land to Dr. B. R. Ambedkar for the establishment of Milind Mahavidyalaya.[2][3] The growth of Milind Mahavidyalaya prompted the leaders of the Society to divide the college into Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar College of Commerce in 1960 and "Milind College of Arts" and Milind College of Science in 1963.^[citation needed]
