AI-Ammen Memorial Minority College is a notably noble achievement of the AI-Ameen Memorial Society for Education & Health Programme. It was founded in the year 2004. The College is a brain - child of its founder, Late Prof. Md. Roushan Ali, a patron of letters, a far-sighted and noble hearted philanthropist. The impediment of his old age did not stand on his way to till his demise to offer encouragement and valuable suggestions every now and then to the founder Secretary of the College to bring it to its full flaged state.
With an aim to imparting education (Higher Education) among the educationally backward minorities of West Bengal but not to the exclusion of the students of other communities, the Society humbly prayed to the Govt. of West Bengal for according necessary permission to the establishment of a Minority College under the Article 30 of the Constitution.
