The D.A.V institutions are the gift of the Arya Samaj, a progressive movement founded by Swami Dayanand Saraswati in 1875.Swami Dayanand Saraswati, the great path-finder of modern India, led a crusade against the superstitions and pernicious practices that had engulfed the contemporary India.
With a view to bring about a balanced and harmonious development of the future citizens of this country and to infuse in them ideas of Vedic Culture and high sense of patriotism, Arya Samaj founded a school at Lahore in 1886 by the name of DAYANAND ANGLO VEDIC SCHOOL.This establishment led to a further foundation of the D. A.V. College Trust and Management Society which later setup a network of such Educational Institutions all over India and abroad.
The D.A.V. Movement would not have achieved its goal if it had not young brilliant graduate-Mahatma Hansraj, the first Principal of the first DAV institution who offered his honorary services as jeevan Daan’ for 25 years.
