Abstract Madan Mohan Malaviya was an Indian educationist and political leader who made significant contributions to the development of education in India during the colonial period. This research paper explores Malaviya's educational philosophy and its relevance to contemporary education in India. The paper begins by examining Malaviya's views on education as a means of promoting social and national progress. It then analyses his vision for an education system that combined the best of Indian and Western traditions. Malaviya's emphasis on character-building, moral education and the cultivation of social responsibility is also discussed. The paper goes on to explore Malaviya's ideas on teacher training and the role of the teacher in society. Malaviya believed that teachers had a crucial role to play in shaping the character and values of their students, and that teacher education should be based on a combination of theory and practice. Finally, the paper considers the relevance of Malaviya's educational philosophy to contemporary education in India. While Malaviya's ideas were developed in a very different historical context, many of the principles that he espoused, such as the importance of character-building and the role of teachers as moral guides, remain relevant today.
