National High School & College. (ಬೆಂಗಳೂರು Bangalore- The Garden City of India)


One of the oldest schools in Bangalore.This is one of the many National Colleges.The others are located in Jayanagar, Gauribidnur and Hosur.(Birth place of Dr. H. Narasimhaiah.) (not in TamilNadu).

HN was known to be the simplest man living in Bangalore. He never had more than 5 utensils in his hostel room. He always ate simple food. Upittu was his favorite food. I've personally seen him eat Uppittu 3 times a day 7 days a week for months together. He stayed bachelor. Followed Gandhi in every aspect.

Dr.H.N.was the Vice Chancellor of Bangalore University.During his term as V.C. of B.U., he openly challenged famous Sai Baba to prove his powers scientifically.Dr.H.N. also challenged that Sai Baba is faking the tricks.I was one of the fortunate people to be with him while he was alive.Very simple man.Great integrity.

hello, im praveen from bangalore. i pursued me bachelors degree in National college. As said Dr. H Narasimaiah was very simple personality. During my time as a student, he was the chairman of the college. He was really a motivator to all of us. he was a person of "simple living & high thinking". This style of living was what attracted by all. Today he is no more, but he still lives in our hearts. Even at this moment im thanksful him for all the help & support he gave us during our time. Thank you dear sir, we love you...
