LU, Lucknow

Raja Sir Muhammad Ali Mohammad Khan, Khan Bahadur, K.C.I.E. of Mahmudabad, originally proposed the concept of establishing a university in Lucknow. He made this suggestion in an essay that he wrote for the columns of "The Pioneer." After Sir Harcourt Butler, K.C.S.I., K.C.I.E., was appointed Lieutenant-Governor of the United Provinces a short while later, the plan gained new life and vitality due to his well-known interest in all things under his jurisdiction, particularly those pertaining to education. A General Committee of educationists and others interested in university education, established for that purpose, convened in conference at Government House, Lucknow, on November 10, 1919, marking the first step towards the establishment of the institution.

After some debate, it was decided that the University of Lucknow should be a unitary, teaching, residential university with the faculties of arts, including law, science, medicine, and oriental studies, in accordance with the Calcutta University Mission of 1919. A number of other resolutions were also approved, and six subcommittees were established—five to address issues related to the university and one to address plans for Intermediate Education provision. The reports of these subcommittees' meetings were presented before the General Committee at its second conference in Lucknow on January 26, 1920. The proceedings of the subcommittees were reviewed and discussed, and the reports of five of the subcommittees were, subject to certain restrictions, confirmed.
