With the awakening of national consciousness in the early years of the last century, a few notable efforts were made in British India to improve the system of education prevalent in India during that time. Gujarat Vidyapeeth, started by Mahatma Gandhi, aimed at preparing youth to serve and uplift the rural masses; Shantiniketan tried to bring the cultures of the East and West into universal harmony; Jamia Millia tried to educate the Muslims in keeping with the needs of the main stream of national life; and the Gurukul Kangri aimed at preserving the cultural heritage of the nation keeping with the requirements of the modern age.

Inspired by the same spirit Pandit Janardan Rai Nagar established ‘Rajasthan Vidyapeeth’ in 1937 to uplift the down-trodden common man in the feudal state of Mewar. Started as a Night Study Centre for the Elementary, Secondary and Advanced Courses in Hindi

 

Founder Message

We are withdrawn far away from the ultimate goal of life, and allured by the miracles of Science. We have been endeavoring to become machine-like man and this raises an alarm of our total destruction. The human civilization is the illuminated path of the Human Divine, and its various communities are the stream flowing towards the Absolute Bliss of life, and this perennial flow is on the spiritual soil, as it has always been.
