RAJOURI/NEW DELHI JAN 01:–Raksha Mantri (Defence Minister) Rajnath Singh on Monday inaugurated the ‘first all-girls Sainik School’ at Vrindavan in Mathura of Uttar Pradesh.
The first all-girls school with approximately 870 students is an initiative of establishing 100 new Sainik Schools in partnership mode with NGOs/Private/State Government Schools in all State/Union Territories, of which 42 have been set up.
These are in addition to the existing 33 Sainik Schools already functioning under the erstwhile pattern, Army informed.
Defence Minister Rajnath Singh described Samvid Gurukulam Girls Sainik School as a beacon of light for girls who aspire to join the Armed Forces and serve the motherland.
“Under the visionary leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the Government has given women their rightful place in the Armed Forces, which was neglected for years. They have the right to protect the nation just like their male counterparts. It was a golden moment in the history of women empowerment when we approved the admission of girls to Sainik Schools. Today, our women are not only flying fighter jets, but they are also securing the borders,” Defence Minister.
In 2019 Rajnath Singh approved admission of girl children to Sainik schools w.e.f. academic session 2021-22 in a phased manner.
The decision was taken following the success of the pilot project started by the Ministry of Defence in Sainik School Chhingchhip in Mizoram.
The objectives behind the vision of setting up of 100 new Sainik Schools are to provide quality education to the students in tune with the National Education Policy 2020 and give them better career opportunities, including joining the Armed Forces.
It also gives an opportunity to the private sector to work together with the Government towards nation building by refining today’s youth to become responsible citizens of tomorrow.
Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and senior officials of the state government were among those present during the inauguration of Samvid Gurukulam Girls Sainik School, Vrindavan.
