For generations, the House of Mewar has remained a steadfast patron of learning, with a pioneering commitment to female literacy and empowerment. Today, this enduring legacy continues under the guidance of Shriji Dr. Lakshyaraj Singh Mewar, Chairman and Managing Trustee of the Maharana of Mewar Charitable Foundation (MMCF).

On 5th August 2026, Shriji Dr. Lakshyaraj Singh Mewar reaffirmed this vision by supporting the full annual fees for 200 students at the Government Girls Senior Higher Secondary School, Jagdish Chowk, Udaipur, for the 2026-27 academic session. This noble initiative carries forward a historic milestone. Originating as the Shambhuratna Pathshala in January 1864 underMaharana Shambhu Singh (r. 1861-1874 CE), 71st Custodian of the House of Mewar, the institution was dedicated exclusively to female education in 1866. As the region's very first school for girls, it laid the historic groundwork for empowering generations of young women, a tradition that proudly thrives today.
