An Insignia of Anglo-Vedic Heritage
SPIRIT
Hailed and venerated as the Heritage College of the DAVs, this institution is very close to the DAV world-view and its historiography. DAV College ( Lahore ), Ambala City , has a sacrosanct and hallowed history dating back to 1886 when it was established at Lahore with Mahatma Hans Raj as its honorary Principal. The year 1886 proved a watershed year as the institutionalization of college education in India by the DAVs had a historically significant ripple-effect which ultimately led to the birth and growth of a long chain of centres of higher education in India . Mahatma Hans Raj served this institution with humility, dedication and a missionary spirit. This DAV College in particular is a matrix of the Dayanand Anglo Vedic renaissance which played a stellar role in rejuvenating in a society intellectually, emotionally, socially and spiritually.Ever since its inception, this nodal college has been accoladed and honoured as a signifier of the core ideology of the DAV macrocosm. After partition, the college was relocated at Ambala city in 1948...
Dear Students,
There is something magical in seeing our large family of DAVians congregate in one place. Spread across over 21 States of this country alone and even places abroad, DAV has proven to be not just an educational organisation, but a movement that spans through time and space. The DAV United Festival, in its Fourth Edition, celebrated the magnanimous unity of this very movement. It was a wonderful opportunity for our students and their parents, alumni, teachers and staff to revel in the identity and pride that binds us all.
