About the Charutar Vidya Mandal University

The Charutar Vidya Mandal (CVM) University, established in 2019, Vallabh Vidyanagar – 388120, Gujarat, India, is a premier university in Gujarat with a strong lineage dating back to the pre-Independence era (1945 onwards). Just six kilometers from India’s milk city--Anand, it has made its distinct identity in the sector of education by offering numerous emerging and innovative educational programs and by attracting students from across the globe. It is managed and sponsored by one of the oldest trusts of Gujarat, Charutar Vidya Mandal (CVM), founded with the vision of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel and established under the Gujarat Act No. 8 of 2009, Government of Gujarat.

The Charutar Vidya Mandal (CVM) was conceived on the eve of India's independence, inspired by Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel and passionately led by Shri Bhaikaka and Shri Bhikhabhai Saheb, with a vision to promote rural regeneration through and accessible higher education. On March 3, 1945, they planned an educational township - Vidyanagar later named Vallabh Vidyanagar in honor of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel.
