Abhyas.com has been conceived and funded by MDCT.
The concept is being implemented at model abhyas centers
by MDCT along with NGO's in the
field of education. MDCT has
financialy supported the needy for education since its
incorporation by MD & PDB in 1959. The KMD college in
Mumbai has been prime among beneficiaries.
With the
support of MDCT, the erstwhile
Mumbai College was renamed to Kirti College, so named
after MD's son who passed away in a road accident
in 1958. In the pre-independence era MD championed the
cause of women's education in Karachi and was the
President of the Gujarat Education Society and was also
the founder of the Gujarat Mahila Vidyapeeth. His love
for Sanskrit resulted in his establishing a special fund
for awarding a gold medal to the student securing highest
marks with subject "Anu Bhasya"
at the degree level in several universities in Gujarat.
