New Kendriya Vidyalaya to come up in North-East Delhi’s Khajuri Khas

A new Kendriya Vidyalaya will soon open in North East Delhi’s Khajuri Khas area to provide quality education to local children and those of the government employees living in the Trans- Yamuna area. The Delhi government has provided the required land for the Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan (KVS).

Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, thanking Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his cooperation in realising the project, said under his leadership, Kendriya Vidyalayas are being set up across the country, including Delhi. They will strengthen the education system and thereby help secure a bright future for millions of children.

She informed that the KVS has decided to establish the new Kendriya Vidyalaya in Khajuri Khas (near Khajuri Khas Police Station, Sonia Vihar area) in the North-East Delhi parliamentary constituency.

Initially, the school will be running classes from Grade 1 to Grade 5, with a single section in each grade.

As arrangements for land and infrastructure have been completed by the concerned authorities the school has been approved by KVS.

The school will operate under the civil sector, with potential expansion in the coming years.

According to the Chief Minister’s Office, there are currently 46 Kendriya Vidyalayas functioning in the national capital.

Gupta has emphasised that the PM always believed that quality education is the strongest pillar of a self-reliant India focused on making education a tool for holistic development rather than limiting it to textbooks. She said the PM’s vision of “equal opportunity, equal education, and equal resources for every child” is being realised through these schools, and this decision marks an important step towards inclusive development, social equality, and equal opportunities in education.
