The president

From the president

The institution I have founded was inspired by the teachings of my late father's guru, K. M. Yogashram Mishramacharya. It is called "Chirantana" — an entity that lives forever, born of the idea of an eternal faith. Chirantana Valley Public School was built to carry a bigger goal: to use a school to develop society. The institution has grown, and it now stands as a working example of a living, active community. The trust is working to make the school a state-of-the-art institution. With the support we have received from the public, the future looks bright. Together, let us work for the progress of society.

नस्य विद्या समो बन्धुः, नस्य विद्या समः सखाः। नस्य विद्या समं धनम्, नस्य विद्या समं सुखम्॥

There is no kin equal to learning, no friend equal to learning, no wealth equal to learning, no happiness equal to learning.
