Gandhigram Rural Institute (GRI), founded by two dedicated disciples and contemporaries of Mahatma Gandhi, Dr.G.Ramachandran and Dr.T.S.Soundaram Ramachandran, has as its foundation Mahatma Gandhi’s revolutionary philosophy of Nai Talim, which effectively bridges the cognitive and practical dimensions, and focuses on the holistic development of learners, with an emphasis on skill development through value-based education, rooted in indigenous cultures and traditions.

1. Folks Hoschkole system of Denmark by N.F. S. Gruntvig (1844)

2. Land-grant University system of USA (1862); and

3. Sriniketan Experiment of Shantiniketan by Tagore (1922)
