The Institution
Established in 1961 by our Founder Father Late Syed Tafazzul Karim with a view to impart education to the weaker section of Jamshedpur specially Muslims, Karim City College has now become a premier educational institution of eastern India.
After the sad demise of our founder his son Late S.M. Shafiq patronised the institution with his leading from the front attitude. His death in 1992 created a void which was sucessfully and graciously filled by our present trustee Mr. Syed Ashfaque Karim whose modern and progressive approach is taking the college to greater heights.
