Jai Narain Vyas University, Jodhpur
Jai Narain Vyas University (JNVU) is an educational institution situated in Jodhpur, Rajasthan, India. It was established under the Jodhpur University Act (Act XVII), which combined several state colleges, including Jaswant College, Shri Maharaj Kumar College, and Kamla Nehru Girls College, into a Unitary Teaching University. The university received University Grants Commission recognition on 14 July 1962 and was formally opened by Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan on 24 August 1962. It was renamed from Jodhpur University to Jai Narain Vyas University on 12 February 1992, in honor of Jai Narayan Vyas. The university operates three campuses—New Campus, Jaswant Campus (Old Campus), and K. N. College for Women—covering a total area of over 315 hectares. Its academic jurisdiction extends across five districts: Jodhpur, Barmer, Jaisalmer, Jalore, and Pali, and it oversees several affiliated colleges, including Aishwarya College of Education. Notable alumni include judges Dalveer Bhandari and Rajendra Mal Lodha, former Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot, and geoscientist Ashok Kumar Singhvi. The university's research emphasizes the heritage and challenges of the Thar Desert region, given its location near the India-Pakistan border.
