Gauhati University (GU), Guwahati was established by a demonstration of the State Legislature, to be specific, the Gauhati University Act 1947 (Assam Act, XVI of 1947), of the Government of Assam in the year 1948. The University is financed by the University Grants Commission and the Government of Assam. Moreover, different organizations of the Central and State Government give different gifts and help to Research and other Academic exercises. The University is in its 58th-year presence and is the most established, biggest, and the most chief seat of advanced education in the whole North Eastern Region of India. It was to be sure a blessing from heaven for a huge number of individuals of Assam who had tenaciously unsettled for quite a long time for an organization of advanced education in the area when Gauhati University was established on 26 January 1948. For quite a while, the main college in the whole eastern district was at Calcutta. This college took into account the necessities of the students from Bengal as well as of those from Bihar, Orissa, and Assam. Actually, in this way, seats for understudies from Assam were greatly restricted and all the time even praiseworthy students got themselves removed in the shred. Throughout the years, this had brought on disdain among the informed Assamese youth and the need for a different college started to be intensely felt.Soon after the capital moved to Delhi in 1911, Bihar and Orissa procured their own particular Universities and it was then that Assam, as well, set forward her claim to the Government for a different University.
The primary open request was made at the yearly session of the Assam Association held at Sivasagar in 1917 when Satyanath Bora made an intense supplication in his Presidential discourse for a different University. He compellingly expressed that separated from different reasons, Assam merited a free University for the straightforward reason that the Senate and Syndicate of the Calcutta University had little connection with the general population of Assam and thusly would never distinguish themselves with the trusts and goals of the Assamese individuals. Satyanath Bora's capable discourse tremendously affected the Assamese scholarly people and it was followed up by a request off to the Calcutta University Commission headed by Michael Sadler. From that point onwards till 1928, representation and petitions to the Government for a different college were displayed every now and then.
An assortment of teaching and learning strategies are utilized to bestow information and abilities to students at Gauhati University (GU) in its different departments.
