The U. P. Chapter of the Anatomical Society of India (State Branch) was inaugurated and established on Saturday, the 11th November, 1978 at 10 a.m. at King George's Medical College, Lucknow. Earlier, in December 1976 at the Silver Jubilee Conference of the A.S.I., the rules for establishment of state branch or chapters were framed by the executive committee of the A.S.I. and formally accepted by its General Body on the initiative taken by the Medical College of Tamil Nadu. The U.P. Chapter thus became only the second state branch of the A.S.I.to take birth.

The inaugural issue of the Journal of Anatomical Sciences was published in September 1979 as the official media of the U.P. Chapter of the A.S.I.

Tewari (GSVM Medical College, Kanpur) with Dr. Vishram Singh (GSVM Medical College, Kanpur) as the co-editor. The first issue consisted of four high quality original research articles along with the proceedings of the U. P. Chapter's first annual conference.
