Shri Dharamvir Gupta, its Founder President, to perpetuate the memory of his illustrious grandfather Lala Bhagwan Dass- a renowned social worker of his time, who propelled his children into the freedom struggle and social work for the benefit of society. The college owes its name Sudha Rustagi College of Dental Sciences and Research to Sudha Rustagi (sister of Shri Dharamvir Gupta), a beaming teenager, prematurely snatched away by the cruel hand of fate, who lives in the hearts of the family and the college.

Shri Dharamvir Gupta- a known educationist, carries with him vast and rich experience of managing educational institutions in engineering, medical, dental and allied fields. A co-trustee of Lala Nemi Chand Educational Trust (Regd.), established in the name of his father, a renowned freedom fighter who had suffered inhuman torture and solitary confinement in the condemned cells of the British jails; the Trust has a deep commitment to education which, it believes, is the key to social upliftment and empowerment. The trust runs N.C. College of Engineering, panipat, which has earned reputation as one of the best engineering colleges in the country. After the dawn of freedom, lalaji launched himself into social work in true Gandhian spirit and was responsible for setting up a number of educational institutions.

The engineering college of the Trust with world-class infrastructure on a plot admeasuring 30 acres at Israna near Panipat has produced thousands of enginnering graduates, who have secured lucrative jobs both at home and abroad through campus placements.
