After the construction of the Kendriya Vidyalaya's permanent classroom, students will have the opportunity to study. The school will begin classes on the recommendation of Prime Minister Narendra Modi 's visionary national education policy, Pradhan said.

In a conducive environment, students at Kendriya Vidyalaya will be interested in reading and learning about the use of technology.
