About University of Rajasthan
The university office got set up temporarily in Kesargarh Fort, you know. Back then, the Maharaja of Jaipur, Sawai Man Singh, he went ahead and gave the university this huge spot, over 300 acres. It was about two miles out from the city center, and everyone figured it was just right for a campus. Moti Doongari castle looked down on it from the north, and the Jhalana hills ran along the east side, all the way. That gave the place this rugged, grand feel, pretty much like so many spots in Rajasthan.
Dr. G. S. Mahajani was the guy they picked as the first Vice-Chancellor. At that point, he was Principal of Ferguson College in Poona, which is Pune now. He seemed like the perfect fit in a lot of ways. Being part of the Servants of India Society and all. He would walk from his house to the office, didn't even keep a car. And Shri M. M. Verma, he became the first Registrar, working right alongside Dr. Mahajani, close as could be.
The states in Rajputana chipped in with an annual grant of INR 2.5 lacs. What's really something is how they stressed that taking the money wouldn't touch the university's independence at all. It could run its teaching and admin however it wanted, aiming for the top ideas of university life. This place has done a ton for higher education over the years. Looking back, you see all these cool bits that show how forward-thinking it was from the start. The base they built here, it's solid, like what Shri J. C. Rollo said in his address on July 28, 1947, at the Academic Council meeting. This was the first get-together for that council. It's nice that they started with it. That puts the focus on academic stuff coming first, always. The council acts like the university's academic conscience. As the first chair, I mean, he suggested keeping the highest standards no matter what, from an academic angle. And hey, from day one, everyone should use their own judgment, not let any group push them around. That kind of thing wrecked some universities. But here in Rajputana, independence won't cause trouble.
The motto, "Dharmo Vishwasya Jagatah Pratishtha," came from Vice-Chancellor Dr. G. S. Mahajani. The Executive Council okayed it on January 28, 1948. It captures India's big gift to world ideas, basically. And the hope was that Indian universities would help bring back those spiritual values the world could use right now. Then in February 1949, Shri V. T. Krishnamachari, Diwan of Jaipur State and Pro Vice-Chancellor, he said in his welcome speech that the university had been around for over a year and a half. Progress had been good, gratifying even. Credit to Dr. Mahajani and his team for that. The university groups were getting into their roles, running exams, and getting degrees recognized. Oh and they were pushing to set up an Engineering College in Jodhpur, plus an Agricultural College in Bikaner.
At first, the university covered all of Rajputana except Ajmer-Merwara. It started as just an affiliating one, with twenty-two colleges scattered around, and it oversaw high school and intermediate stuff too. After Ajmer-Merwara joined Rajasthan in 1956, that area fell under it as well. They renamed it University of Rajasthan in 1957. When the Board of Secondary Education started in 1957, schools shifted over there. So the university could zero in on higher ed and research. Later on, it turned into a teaching-cum-affiliating university.
