About

Founded in 1887, Allahabad is the fourth-oldest modern university in India and was long nicknamed the 'Oxford of the East'. It is best known for producing Prime Ministers, judges and an outsized share of India's civil servants, and for a literary tradition that includes Mahadevi Verma, Harivansh Rai Bachchan and Firaq Gorakhpuri. It returned to central-university status in 2005 and now admits undergraduates through CUET.
