The National Forensic Sciences University, the erstwhile Gujarat Forensic Sciences University, is the brainchild of the Gujarat government.
The university was established by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, then chief minister of Gujarat in 2009 with an objective to create professional experts in the field of Forensic sciences.
The university currently has two campuses – Gujarat and Delhi.
The Gujarat campus is the first campus of the National Forensic Sciences University at Gandhinagar.
The Delhi campus of NFSU was renamed the National Institute of Criminology and Forensic Science (NICFS) in 1991 and again renamed after Lok Nayak Jayaprakash Narayan in 2003.
