Suresh Gyan Vihar University (SGVU), Jaipur was established in 1994.

SGVU is duly recognized by the university grants commission (UGC) and is included in the list of private universities maintained by the university grants commission under section 2 (f) of UGC Act 1956.

Suresh Gyan Vihar University is the culmination of a dream that is seeing its fruition after three generations of single minded dedication, hard work and unfailing perseverance for the cause of education and the upliftment of the poor and down-trodden.

It was during the tumultuous years of our Independence struggle that heeding the call of Mahatama Gandhi to make education easily accessible to all sections of the society and not just the elite, Shri Acharya Purushottam Uttam decided to take steps to fulfill this dream.

Although he was a member of the Socialist Party and was the first General Secretary of the party in Rajasthan, he abandoned any political ambitions in favour of devoting all his time and effort towards making education freely available to all, and thus was formed the “Sahitya Sadawart Samiti”.

He joined Guru Kamalakar, a famous Brij poet, and worked with him to teach languages like Hindi, Sanskrit and Gujrati, as well as the great works of Indian Literature free of cost
