The institution is named after Raja Hasan Khan Mewati, the Muslim Khanzada Rajput ruler of Mewat who was martyred by the Mughals in the battle of Khanwa, hence he was given the honorific title of Shaheed.
The first foundation stone for establishment was placed on 18 July 2009, under the presence of Chief Minister, Bhupinder Singh Hooda, Gurgaon MP Rao Inderjit Singh, Dr. Krishna Pandit, Azad Mohammed, and MLA Habib Ur Rehman.
On 12 August 2012, the college was fully established, and the inaugural batch of students was admitted in 2013.
The current officiating director is Dr. Mukesh Kumar. The college includes a hospital located at 28°05′28″N 76°58′19″E / 28.091116°N 76.972009°E.
