History

After the Independence of India, people of Adirampattinam have visited the far away cities to achieve their goals of higher education. "Kalvithanthai" Haji.S.M.S. Shaik Jalaludeen realised how difficult it would be for the poor and the downtrodden to travel and pursue their higher studies. He decided to make his hometown itself a place of higher education. With a secular outlook and with a mission to help the poor and the disadvantaged to develop themselves, Haji.S.M.S. Shaik Jalaludeen extended the benefits of M.K.N. Madarasa Trust, formed by Haji Khadir Mohideen Maraikayar, with his brothers, to preserve and utilize 1,500 acres of land in Adirampattinam for the purpose of providing religious education through madarasas[1] to religious and linguistic minority students by founding several educational institutions at Adirampattinam. Thus came into existence Khadir Mohideen College on 5 July 1955 by his visionary efforts.

Words About Founder

Kalvithanthai Haji.S.M.S.Shaik Jalaludeen was born on 28 January 1920. His father late Muhammed Abul Hassan Maraikayar was a former Chairman of Adirampattinam Town Panchayat . He began his school education at Adirampattinam Aaravamutha Ayyangar Middle School. Honorable Shri.R.Venkatraman, the 8th President of India and Mr.N.S.Elango (a friend of DMK President and former Chief Minister Dr.M.Karunanidhi) were the classmates of the founder. He started Khadir Mohideen High School on 25.06.1949. When he noticed the phenomenal growth of the school, he felt the need of establishing a center for higher studies to the youth of the economically and socially downtrodden area. Khadir Mohideen College was started on 05.07.1955. It was an exalted moment to say that our college was opened by Honorable Shri.C.Subramaniam who was then Minister for Finance and Education, Government of Tamil Nadu, India. On 04.07.1982 he started Khadir Mohideen Girls Higher Secondary School exclusively for girls and thus made the coastal fishing village into a haven of higher education. All the people invariably acknowledged his educational services by hailing Haji.S.M.S.Shaik Jalaludeen as “Kalvithanthai”.
