Nari Seva Sangha was founded in 1944, when hundreds of women were left destitute by the Bengal famine and the partition that followed. Founder-secretary Seeta Chaudhuri — remembered as Bengal's Florence Nightingale — built it into a Jodhpur Park institution that runs a home for distressed women, non-formal education and vocational training schools, a Balwadi pre-primary and primary school for low-income children, and a working women's hostel, training residents until they become self-reliant and employed.
