H emvati Nandan Bahuguna was born on 25 April, 1919.

He received his early education from Garhwal region

and later on shaped his academic and political career from
Allahabad University. He served as the ninth Chief Minister
of undivided Uttar Pradesh from 1973 to 1975. He also
held important ministerial positions in the Government
of India. he had voiced his concerns over the neglect of
education in the remote hilly areas. Along with the people
of this region, he struggled for ful illing the academic
and educational requirements which culminated in the
establishment of Garhwal University in 1973, at Srinagar,
a central town of the Garhwal Himalayas.
As a mark of respect and tribute to the 'son of the soil',
in 1989, Garhwal University was renamed as Hemvati
Nandan Bahuguna Garhwal University.
The University
Hemvati Nandan Bahuguna Garhwal University was established as a State University vide U.P.
State Government noti ication no. (107/865/15/(75) (85y/64 dated 23 November 1973. It
has a rare distinction of taking birth through a powerful popular movement during the early
seventies in the last century. This movement symbolized the hopes and aspirations of the
masses of the Garhwal region for development through the instrument of higher education.
The people of this remote mountainous region campaigned for the foundation a University
in the small but historic semi-rural town of Srinagar. It was an expression of their quest to
empower future generations, overcoming academic, economic and social backwardness, and
geographical and environmental constraint, a reassertion of cultural identity and harnessing
the local, natural, and human resources for development.
The University has subsequently been converted into a central university by an Act of Par-
liament, i.e., the Central Universities Act 2009. The University has thus been entrusted with
new responsibilities to guide its students, faculty and all other stakeholders to achieve excel-
lence in academics and strives for the all-round development of students. Since its inception,
the University has shown commitment to regional and community development inherent
in its teaching courses, research agenda and other outreach and extension initiatives. The
synergy derived from the circumstances of its genesis still inspires and promotes its vision
for the future.
The University, nestled in the lap of Himalayan ranges of the Garhwal region of Uttarakhand,
is a residential cum af iliating institution of higher learning. It has jurisdiction over seven
districts of the Garhwal region of Uttarakhand.
The University has three campuses distantly located from each other - Birla Campus, Srina-
gar Garhwal with its Extension at Chauras Campus, B. Gopal Reddy (BGR) Campus, Pauri
and Swami Ram Teerth (SRT) Campus Badshahithaul, Tehri. In addition, many colleges and
institutes are af iliated with it and spread over different districts of the Garhwal region of
Uttarakhand. Undergraduate, Postgraduate and Research programmes are being offered in
different disciplines on all three campuses of the University. Besides conventional courses
under different streams of studies, the University has introduced some regionally relevant
courses that are most important to the mountainous areas.

In view of the UGC Draft regulations 2009 and Supreme Court of India's letter No.
370/04/XIA dated 26 February, 2009 and March 17, 2009 the following provisions have
been made by the University to curb ragging effectively in its campuses.
Ragging means the following:-
Any disorderly conduct whether by words spoken or written or by an act which has the
effect of teasing, treating or handling with rudeness any other student, indulging in
rowdy or undisciplined activities which causes or is likely to cause embarrassment,
annoyance, hardship or psychological harm or to raise fear or apprehension thereof in
a fresher or a junior student or asking the students to do any act or perform something
which such students will not in the ordinary course do or perform and which has the
effect of causing or generating a sense of shame or so as to adversely affect the physique
or psyche of a fresher or a junior student. Any of the above acts committed by any
student of the same or junior or senior class shall be deemed to be ragging.

1. Punishable ingredients of ragging

* Abetment to ragging;

* Unlawful assembly and rioting while ragging;
* Public nuisance created during ragging;
* Violation of decency and morals through ragging;

Clause-3
Establishment of Identity and Certification of Character
1. Every bonafide student of the University, irrespective of the Campus to which
she/he might have been admitted, will be issued an Identity Card by the Office of the
Proctor. The Identity Card issued to a student shall be treated to be the sole proof of
his/her being a student of the University. It shall be mandatory for every student to
produce the Identity Card upon being demanded by a member of the Proctorial
Board. Failure in producing the Identity Card on demand will cause a student to be
treated to be a trespasser and render him/her punishable under the rules of the
University. The loss of the Identity Card should be reported to the Office of the
Proctor and a duplicate Identity Card should be obtained from the said Office by
making a formal application accompanied by a photocopy of the Fees Receipt issued
to the student concerned at the time of admission and depositing the prescribed
fees.
2. Character Certificates are issued to students on demand by the Proctor's Office.
Often students applying for employers are required to submit an appropriate
Character Certificate. The Character Certificate issued under the seal of the Proctor
is considered to be the most appropriate proof of character. The students can be
issued a Character Certificate as many times as they may require upon making a
written application and the payment of the prescribed fees. However, students who
might have been 'blacklisted' or might have been punished for a breach of the Code
of Conduct or might have been guilty of indulging in ragging shall not be issued a
Character Certificate.
