The illustrious Dewan family of J&K State was running a High School for boys and a Middle School for girls at Eminabad district Gujranwala as well as an Orphanage at Lahore. Because of partition of India, the towns of Eminabad and Lahore were no longer with Bharat. Dewanini Vidyawati ji felt that it is an incumbent upon her as religious and pious duty to do all that in her power to perpetuate the memory of her noble predecessors for whom service of people was always the priority. Thus she constituted an Educational Trust, namely 'Shrimati Dewanini V. Badrinath Educational Trust' in the year 1957 in J&K state to take ahead the mission of delivering affordable quality education and contributed her valuable property at Mubarak Mandi for this purpose.
Board of Trustees of Shrimati Dewanini V. Badrinath Educational Trust under the able leadership of Shrimati Sushiela Narendrajit Singh ( The first Chairperson) decided and established the institution Dewan Badrinath Vidya Mandir on 1st of September 1963 at Mubarak Mandi . Due to foresightedness of Kunwar Barrister Narendrajit Singh, who was the second chairman of educational trust and the able administration of Secretary Cum Manager Shri Pran Nath Kapoor, school got tremendous stride and achieved top position in a very short span of time. It was no doubt an unparallel effort of Secretary Shri Yatindrajit Singh that three institutions- DBN Vidya Mandir Mubarak Mandi (Higher Secondary School, CBSE), DBN Vidya Mandir Amarvilla (Higher Secondary School, CBSE), and Sushiela Narendrajit Singh Vidya Mandir (High School, CBSE) are contributing to the society. At present, under the able leadership of our Chairman, Shri Virendrajit Singh & his team ( Managing Committee) of renowned, selfless & service oriented members are taking this legacy ahead.
The aim of the Trust institutions is to educate its students according to the modern standard of School Education coupled with best Indian Traditions. The admission to the school is open for all boys and girls who are willing to submit to the discipline of the School.
