Wikipedia's dedicated article on Acharya Tulsi (1914 to 1997), the ninth Acharya (religious head) of the Svetambara Terapanth sect, stating "in the 1970s, Acharya Tulsi began researching, compiling translations and commentaries on the Jain Agamas," and that "Jain Vishva Bharati Institute, an education and research institute was established in 1991 with inspiration from Acharya Tulsi," building on an earlier, less formal research centre at the same Ladnun site from around 1970. Also confirms he launched the Anuvrat moral reform movement in 1949 and was the author of over one hundred books across his own lifetime.
