Malout mandi(new) came into existence on
19th january1920 and the name Edward
Ganj was added to it to mark the visit of Prince of Wales(Prince Edward) to
India on Nov.17,1921.
Edward Ganj Public welfare Association has earned a name
for social service by rendering varied charitable services to the citizens of
this market town. D.A.V. College, Malout was originally founded by the
Association as National College in 1968, with a magnificent investment of rupees
five lacs earmarked for this new venture to fulfil the long standing educational
need of the 'ilaqa'.

To place this institution on a sounder footing both administratively and
academically, the directors of Edwardganj Association handed over the college
management and control to the D.A.V. College Managing Committee, Chitra Gupta
Road, New Delhi, w.e.f. 9th june, 1969. Principal N.D. Grover played a pivotal
role in this process.
