Tilak Maharashtra Vidyapeeth, Pune 2018 Latest Updates

The origin of the Vidyapeeth dates back to 1921 when, immediately after the demise of Lokmanya Bal Gangadhar Tilak, his follower Mahatma Gandhi mooted the idea of establishing a university in his memory. One of the postulates of the four-fold formula conceived by Lokmanya Tilak was National Education and the other three were Swaraj, Swadeshi and Boycott. The delegates of the first Maharashtra Provincial Conference on 6 May 1921 under the presidency of Shrimat Shankaracharya of Karveer Peeth decided to have National University in Maharashtra.
