The Himalayiya University Act, 2019 establishes and governs Himalayiya University, a self-financed private university in Dehradun sponsored by the Himalayiya Ayurvedic Yog Evam Prakartik Chikitsa Sansthan. It sets out the framework for university administration, academic offerings, financial management, statutory compliance, and faculty appointments across disciplines such as Ayush education, medicine, technology, management, and humanities. The law applies to university officers, staff, governance bodies, and enrolled students. It matters because it expands higher education and research opportunities in Uttarakhand while securing a thirty-one percent reservation and fee concession for state residents, alongside local hiring preferences for administrative support roles.
