The DAV Group is an embodiment of the Dayanand Anglo-Vedic movement that began in Lahore in the year 1886. It was inspired by Swami Dayanand Saraswati, the founder of Arya Samaj and its core aim was to build a knowledge-driven society based on Vedic principles.
In the year 1970, the seeds of the DAV movement were sown in Chennai by dedicated visionaries, supported by a large community of well-wishers who generously contributed funds and resources for building schools under the auspices of Tamil Nadu Arya Samaj Educational Society (TNAES). Thanks to all of them, capital expenses of land and other infrastructure were met and the DAV model of affordable quality education was born in Chennai.
The strong value system laid down by the key pillars, notably Lala Indersain ji, Shri Satyadev ji, Shri Jaidev ji, Shri Balakrishna Joshi ji, Shri Ram Kalia ji, Shri Surendra Kumar ji, Shri VN Bajaj ji, Shri Balakishan Goenka ji, Shri DC Malhotra ji and Shri SD Nangia ji continues to direct and inspire the next generations through a service-oriented Board and management who work on a honorary basis.
The Arya Samaj is a social movement established in 1875 by Maharishi Dayanand Saraswati with the clarion call – ‘Back to the Vedas’ and driven by the motto ‘Krinvanto Vishwaryam’ i.e “To make the whole world noble”.
