S.D. College Ambala Cantt.

Sanatan Dharma College (Lahore), Ambala Cantt, was founded at Lahore in 1916 by the great Sanatanists Pandit Madan Mohan Malviya and Pandit Deen Dayal Vachaspati. Pandit Reikhi Ram Ji was the most active force behind its birth and also instrumental in collecting huge donations. In the wake of partition of country in 1947 , the institution was rehabilitated at ambala cantt in 1948 due to the untiring efforts of Goswami Ganesh Dutt Ji.
