A highly successful and decorated individual with a long list of medical adornments and feats to his credit, the Chairman and Chancellor of Nims University Rajasthan, Jaipur India Prof. (Dr.) Balvir S. Tomar, is the actual impetus and reason of existence of this magnificent institution of learning. A renowned personality, Dr. Tomar is famous in medical circles not only within the country but even abroad for his dynamism, versatility, charisma and multi-dimensional personality. A rare precedent of exceptional talent, hard work and acute insight with an immense zeal to serve society Dr. Tomar was born to a noble family of educationists and doctors in Varanasi. A bright student all through his academic years he followed the wishes of his parents and decided to become a doctor early on for which he took admission in the Gajra Raja Medical College in Gwalior. A true achiever he passed his MBBS with a Gold Medal and claimed the top spot in his University.

When Dr. Tomar was pursuing his education proper medical services for children were seriously lacking in the country. There were only a few good Hospitals in the big cities. He was deeply moved by the plight of these children as most of them were suffering from a rising mortality rate, malnutrition and many other diseases. His deep rooted empathy towards young children made him opt for an MD in Paediatrics, which was a tough branch at that time and only toppers would get admission into this specialization. He relentlessly pursued the specialization with full zeal and enthusiasm. While pursuing his MD he worked selflessly towards taking care of sick children and provided them with medical assistance whenever possible. In spite of all the noble work that he was doing he even bagged a Gold medal in his MD.

Dr. Tomar didn't just stop there. He had an undying zeal to study further. The many research papers that he had written and presented began getting popular not just in the country, but even internationally. He pursued his specialization in Paediatric Nutrition from the prestigious Harvard University, USA. Because of his academic brilliance, he was called by the Oxford University to pursue his further studies on scholarship. He then moved to the Kings College, London to complete his specialisation in Paediatric Liver. Even at Kings College he was a Gold medallist and was given many honorary memberships including MIAP, MIHP and FACU. Other than this he also got training from University of California, San Diego, USA, making his educational qualifications much stronger. He also did fellowship from the University of London and is a WHO fellow in Child Health in USA, and Common Wealth Medical fellow in London. Always a devoted Paediatric, Dr. Tomar was one to invent a treatment therapy for a rare disease in children known as 'Indian Child Cirrhosis'. The disease was so dreaded that almost 100% of children used to die of this medical condition. His research project was published in 'Advances in Paediatrics', which is a yearly advanced research book published from USA. After his research project the disease was eradicated. Owing to his academic and medical efficiency, the World Health Organisation, made Dr. Tomar a Fellow Member. He was asked to work on the rising mortality rates and dreaded diseases affecting children in lesser developed countries. He was successful to a large extent in his endeavour and was soon awarded the 'Commonwealth Fellowship in London'.

Dr. Tomar was destined to acclaim a tall stature for himself in the medical and healthcare field. Over the years he has widely been admired as a strategist, innovator, dynamic leader, motivator and a humane educationist who values holistic development of individuals. A man of many experiences and exposures, Dr. Tomar travelled the world, but his heart was in India. After extensive travel for his academic pursuits abroad, Dr. Tomar returned to India and joined the Sawai Man Singh Medical College in Jaipur. For the first time ever at Sawai Man Singh Hospital, he set up a Paediatric Gastroenterology Centre, which helped in reducing the death rate among children suffering from Gastric disorders by 90%. The centre that he had set up initially did not have the required funds and so contributions and donations were invited. Looking at his passion, perseverance and noble vision; people started sending their donations and the entire centre was finally set up. The centre's aim was to treat children with stomach related issues.

In 1995, Dr. Tomar organised the 1st International World Congress of Paediatric Gastroenterology, where around 150 world famous Gastroenterologists came together for the very first time. The conference proved to be a milestone and initiated an era of Paediatric Gastroenterology in the world. For the first time the World Society of Paediatric Gastroenterology was established under the mentorship of Prof. Balvir S. Tomar with more than 1000 members. Due to his exemplary efforts in this field, where he bought together so many international Doctors together, he was felicitated in the second conference in Boston.

Dr. Tomar is the only to be a member of GastroenterologySociety of USA. A distinction nobody has been able to achieve. He still pursues his love for academics and is a visiting professor at the Harvard, Kings College London, University of California, and other leading US and European medical colleges and universities. He is also the Editor in Chief, member of Editorial Board of numerous leading publications and has written many books and journals on Paediatrics. He also has a chapter in the text book of Indian Academy of Paediatrics (IAP). Dr. Tomar also serves on a number of bodies and associations in the country.

According to Dr. Tomar, "Education is inevitable for sustainable development and competency based education holds the secret to a sustainable career." Dr. Tomar has also proved to be an exemplary citizen of the country all through his life. He always did what he thought was right, following his heart's calling even if it wasn't the norm. Among the many awards that hehas received he has been felicitated with the 'Rajeev Gandhi' award that he received from the then Prime Minister, HD Deve Gowda.

Prof. Tomar has also made pioneering contributions in the area of Skill Development and Entrepreneurship. He has always promoted the creation of opportunities for acquisition of skills especially for the youth, women and disadvantaged groups. He has also suggested the Six Arm Theory for skill development and entrepreneurship. The six pillars of the theory of skill development and Entrepreneurship are Knowledge, Awareness, Competencies, Experience, Training and Creativity. In this post-globalization era, except a few, almost all nations across the globe are struggling with economic and political instability, social atrocities, lifestyle problems, slow pace and quality of human development and low per capita incomes. Some of these crucial issues can be dealt with skill development and developed countries in the current era of globalization, Dr. Tomar has initiated skill development certificate courses in the NIMS University for graduate and post-graduate students.

With more than 100 Research Papers credit and being part of many international bodies namely the WHO, UNESCO and UNICEF, there was a lot that Dr Balvir S Tomar had already achieved in the field of Medicine. But his infectious energy and a vision to do something for society didn't let him stop there. After having pursued his education from some of the best institutions of the world, his dream was now to build an institute of world class standards in his own country, one that would impart quality education to all. And hence, the NIMS University was born. He set up the college in the year 2004 and four years later he took the college to great heights to make it into a University, being its mentor and driving force right through. Over the years there have been a number of awards and recognitions that the University has got for its work and accomplishments in the field of education.

Other than providing employment to a large unorganized workforce, NIMS is also focusing on affordable healthcare so that the not so privileged can afford entrepreneurship that can be taught in varsities in those countries.
