Banasthali International
Banasthali is a fully residential women’s university, which offers an integrated education system extending from the primary education up to Ph.D. level.
It was on October
6, 1935 that Smt. Ratan Shastri and Pandit Hiralal Shastri founded Banasthali to
fill up the vacuum caused by the sudden death of their highly talented and
promising daughter Shantabai. They had high expectations that she would work for
women's cause when she would grow up. But destiny ordained otherwise.
Thus, Banasthali owes its existence neither to the zeal of an educationist, nor to that of a social reformer. It is also not the creation of a Philanthropist's purse. It has arisen like the fabled phoenix from the ashes of a blossoming flower Shantabai.
Banasthali aims at the synthesis of spiritual values and scientific achievements of the East and the West. Its educational programme is based on the concept of five fold education (Punchmukhi Shikha) comprising Physical, Practical, Aesthetic, Moral and Intellectual education. Its aims at developing student’s integrated and balanced personality. Emphasis on Indian culture and thought characterized by simple living and khadi wearing are hallmarks of life at Banasthali.

Liberty with security is the main aim reflecting in the modus operandi of Campus life and ‘Simple living and High thinking’ is the modus vivendi. Life here in Banasthali University is free from all hazards and very conductive in the development of overall personality of the student.
