About This Vlog :
Nalanda University was established to emulate the ancient university of Nalanda, which functioned between the 5th and 13th centuries. The idea to resurrect Nalanda University was endorsed in 2007 at the 2nd East Asia Summit by the sixteen member countries.[3] In 2009, during the 4th East Asia summit, ASEAN member states including Australia, China, Korea, Singapore and Japan promised further support.[4] The State Government of Bihar handed over land acquired from local people, to the university for its new campus.[5][6][7][8][9] Chief Minister of Bihar Nitish Kumar also met External Affairs Minister SM Krishna to receive reassurance that the Central Government would allocate sufficient funds to the project.[10]

The architectural design was chosen on the basis of a global competition.[11][12] The jury consisting of architects including Liu Thai Ker chose Pritzker Prize laureate BV Doshi's firm, Vastu Shilpa Consultants as the winner of the design competition.[13] The firm dbHMS provides the triple net zero energy, water and waste strategic plan.[14] Original concepts associated with the project included "advancing the concept of an Asian community...and rediscovering old relationships."[15] and "acting as a bridge for students in different parts of Southeast Asia".[16]

The university has been envisioned as an international institution of national importance[17] and excellence.[18] It began its first academic session on 1 September 2014 with 15 students in the School of Historical Studies and the School of Ecology and Environmental studies. A hotel operated by Bihar State Tourism Development Corporation in Rajgir provided initial hostel accommodation.[19][20] Initially set up with temporary facilities in Rajgir, a modern campus spanning over 160 hectares (400 acres) is under construction with over 80 percent having been completed by 2021.[16][21] The university started functioning from its 455-acres new campus from January 2020.[22] At least 200 villages surrounding the university will be attached to the university, reminiscent of the old Nalanda.[23]
