Swami Dayanand Saraswati Jee preached against  many Hindu traditions which he felt were dogmatic  and oppressive.  These included  traditions such as idol worship, caste by birth, the exclusion of females from the study of Vedas.  His main message was for Hindus to go back to the roots of their religion, which are the Vedas.

Arya Samaj a progressive faith was founded by Swami Dayanand Saraswati.  Rarely in history has one single person come to be so totally identified with the social and oral revival of a nation as Swamijee.  Education had been the biggest casualty in medieval India.  Swamijee had realized that the salvation lay in education the masses.  To achieve this cherished goal of literacy through spread of education was the keystone.  To achieve this cherished goal  his followers  founded the Dayanand Anglo-Vedia (DAV) College Trust and Management Society in his sacred memory  which was registered in 1885 under the Societies Registration Act 1860.  This was the begining of the DAV movement.

The late Shri Mehar Chand Mahajan ( Chief Justice Of India) was president of D.A.V College Managing Committee for years, but he understood the importance of Purohits and Updeshaks of Arya Samaj and that is why he started the Updeshak Vidyalaya in Tankara.  We have thousands of Arya Samaj's all over the world but do we have enough Purohits to fill those positions?  The answer is Updeshak Vidyalaya which can produce purohits and updeshaks and spread the ideas of  Maharashi Swami Dayanad Sarsawati Jee.  In 1966 he sent Shri Satya Dev Vidyalankar to Tankara to start Updeshak Vidyalaya.
