In June 1, 1886, Arya Samajists established Dayanand Ayur Vedic (DAV). The school started Intermediate classes in 1888 and graduate classes in 1892 and finally M.A. in 1895. The name of the college was attributed to the Hindu leader Sawami Dayanand Sarasvati, founder of the Arya Samaj moment. In 1947, Muslim refugees from East Punjab were housed in the college building. The building was later divided into two institutions: Talilul Islam (which was moved to Rabwah in 1954) and LSNF School (Licensed State Medical Faculty).
