Desh Bhagat University: Renowned For Embracing Innovation In Education

Established through the Desh Bhagat University Act under the Punjab Government, the roots of Desh Bhagat University stem from the ethos of Sardar Lal Singh Ji, a freedom fighter recognized for his contributions to the struggle of independence of India. In 1972, his dedication to social work and the freedom movement led to the Government of India honoring him with the "˜Tamra Patra' award, inspiring the University's name as Desh Bhagat.
