Hemchandracharya North Gujarat University


Welcome to Hemchandracharya North Gujarat University

Total land available = 212.50 acres.

Hemchandracharya North Gujarat University has a total area of 212.50 acres. The geographical jurisdiction of the University includes five districts in the North Gujarat region- Mehsana, Patan, Banaskantha, Sabarkantha, and Aravalli. Each of these five districts possesses a unique heritage. Geographically, one section of the territory is adjacent to the Kutchh Desert, while the northeastern side comprises rugged forest sections inhabited by tribal communities. The region's economy is predominantly agricultural. There are several communities in this area, but no major metropolis. The remainder of the population resides in villages. Ordinance No. 5 of 1986, dated May 17, 1986, founded Hemchandracharya North Gujarat University to address the region's specific cultural and educational requirements. The Gujarat Legislative Assembly subsequently enacted the North Gujarat University Act No. 22 of 1986 on September 11, 1986. Since then, the university has operated, gradually growing and expanding.

Patan, a town in the Patan district, was chosen as the university's headquarters. Patan City serves as the headquarters for universities. The historical significance of Patan is undeniable. For centuries, the Solanki Dynasty ruled Patan as the capital of a vast kingdom that extended well beyond contemporary Gujarat, serving as a significant center of Jain scholarship. It is the sacred territory of Acharya Hemchandra, a distinguished scholar who made significant contributions to grammar, literature, religion, and philosophy. Rani-ki-Vav, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a remarkable architectural and sculptural monument from the past. The lakes of Shahastralinga and Khansarovar, the Jain temples of Panchasara, and several other nearby remnants attest to Patan's former grandeur.
