SOMAIYA VIDYAVIHAR UNIVERSITY

The Somaiya Vidyavihar Complex was founded in 1959 by the late Shri K.J. Somaiya. Karamshibhai set up the Somaiya Trust in 1953 for shaping young minds through quality education. On August 26, 2019, Somaiya Vidyavihar announced that it would be ‘the first ever private university in Mumbai’. The red colour circular emblem of the university has a traditional lamp crested by its motto in Sanskrit ‘ज्ञानादेव तु कैवल्यम्’ (Pañcadaśī, verse 9.97, by Vidyaranya) and its English version ‘Knowledge Alone Liberates’ meaning knowledge liberates one from poverty, hunger and other attachments. At the bottom its name is written. The traditional lamp symbolises light, illumination, awakening, devotion, purity, guidance, protection, hope and prosperity.

THE JAMMU & KASHMIR LIGHT INFANTRY India's first Light Infantry was born out of the peoples' response in 1947, to the invasion of Kashmir by Pakistan. In the difficult days of the invasion, the population formed local defence groups. These were later organised into militias responsible for specific sectors, e.g., Leh, Nubra, Jammu, Punch, etc. Over a period, these were grouped into the Militia battalions. Two of these were later converted into the Ladakh Scouts. The militia battalions operated with skill on the Line of Control (LoC) and in the 1971 Indo-Pak War earned three battle honours. In 1972, the militia battalions were brought on par with the army units, and in 1976 designated the Jammu & Kashmir Light Infantry (JAK LI).
