Located right in the centre of the city of Chennai is the Quaid-e-Millath Government College which was started in the mid 18th century as a school. Ghulam Ghouse Khan Bahadur, the then Nawab of Carnatic was the founder of this educational institute which became operational in 1974. Initially known as Government Mohamedan College, the College was rechristened as Government Arts College between 1948 and 1949. Considering the escalating demand for Girl Child Education, the Government Arts College was later converted into a college solely for females. In the honor of the then Muslim philanthropist and leader, the College was then renamed as Quaid-e-Millath Government College.
