Jamia Millia Islamia derives its name from Urdu language in
which Jamia means University and Millia means National. This University, born
off the Indian National Movement and patriotic fervour, was founded in response
to a call by Mahatma Gandhi in 1920 to boycott the Government-supported
institutions.
The story of Jamia is that of commitment and sacrifices by
its founders. The University has many centres of learning right from nursery
schools to faculties and research centres. It strives to maintain the standards
of excellence in teaching and research.
