The D.A.V College Trust and Management Society renamed as Dayanand Shiksha Sansthan, U.P., Kanpur was Established in 1982 in the U.P. in memory of Swami Dayanand Saraswati, one of the architects of modern India. He stood for the revival and propagation of Vedic Dharma in its pristine purity, giving mankind on the incentive to mould a way of life, sublime and noble. With the prime object of ameliorating, spiritual and, social conditions of all men without any distinction of caste, the colour or creed. This was to be achieved through the vital task of dispelling ignorance and promoting knowledge.
