Bankura Sammilani was established in the year 1911(1318 in the Bengali calendar.) The first secretary of this organization was justice Digambar chattopadhyay. Medical school & Hostel was started after hiring a house. In the first phase Physics and chemistry classes were organized in Bankura Christian College. In the meantime the organization received the farm house named ?Nilambar Manjil? and associated waste land as donation from Rai Bahadur Rishibar Mukhopadhyay. In the year 1924, when the age of the school was 3 years, the necessity of hospital & clinics aroused. This problem was solved by the financial support of a businessman of Kolkata named Trikarma Das Kuber, with his support a 14 bedded hospital with 4 doctors was established. After few days with the help of Mangala Dasi & her women?s organization, Gynecology ward was built up, later on with the help of Rai Bahadur Hari Prasad Bandopadhyay Surgery Operation theater was built & extended.
