What other say about GKV

Gurukula Kangri Vishwavidyalaya imparting the value and quality education in certain specific focused area which is hardly seen / heard is being attempted by any other institution in the country. The kinds of courses commenced by the University are serving the purpose for which they were carved out.

UGC Review Committee - 2009

If you have the desire to serve your county, serve the Gurukula, because I have the firm opinion that Gurukula is really a nationalist institution which is continuously engaged in the work of national welfare.

Mahatma Gandhi

I saw Gurukula and became acquainted with its working method. This institution is doing well its duty. On this occasion I want to say forcefully that with the safeguard of the moral disciplines, preference must be given even to the modern science because it is the inevitable thing for the contemporary world.

Pt. Jawahar Lal Nehru

Your Gurukula is a new type of school with an ancient method. When there in India these was a prevalence of English among all the schools and colleges and the education was being given through English medium, the foresighted founder Swami Shraddhananda decided to give the classical education through Hindi medium.

Dr. Rajendra Prasad

If any modern artist would like to take a live model for making the picture of Jesus Christ, I shall indicate towards this splendid picture of Swami Shraddhananda.
