Maharaja’s High School and PU College, Mysore, Karnataka (INDIA)

Maharaja Mummadi Krishnaraja Wadiyar founded the Raja Free School in 1833. “The Maharaja High School and the Maharaja Pre-University College" is a continuation of the Raja Free School housed in the present heritage building. From 1831 to 1868, Mummadi Krishnaraja Wadiyar was just a titular king under the British monarchy and received a princely pension. It was a hefty pay without any duties and responsibilities, so he turned to charity and started schools and colleges acaccording to historians. Thus many schools and institutions, including the Raja Free School, were established. Those institutions received royal patronage under the later kings the tenth Chamaraja Wadiyar, Nalvadi Krishnaraja Wadiyar and Jayachamaraja Wadiyar and flourished.
