Ayodhya’s 2 and Varanasi’s 5 Sanskrit schools to receive modern upgrades
Lucknow, March 28 : The Yogi Adityanath government has taken a significant step toward upgrading non-government aided secondary Sanskrit schools under Project Alankar. As part of this initiative, 11 Sanskrit schools across seven districts in Uttar Pradesh will undergo classroom construction, renovation, and the development of modern facilities such as science labs, smart classrooms, and improved infrastructure.
This project aims to provide students with a better educational environment while promoting Sanskrit education and preserving India’s rich knowledge traditions. The Yogi government remains committed to reviving and strengthening Sanskrit learning through continuous development efforts in the education sector.
Notably, the Yogi government has allocated a Rs 100 crore budget for the modernization of non-government aided Sanskrit schools in the 2024-25 financial year. Under Project Alankar, several Sanskrit schools meeting the required minimum enrollment of 100 students will undergo new classroom construction, boundary wall development, and improved sanitation facilities. A government order has already been issued to implement these improvements.
In Deoria, Durgee Ji Sanskrit Higher Secondary School, Ahilyapur, Barhaj will receive new classrooms, boundary walls, and proper sanitation facilities. In Ayodhya, Shri Raghuvar Sanskrit Higher Secondary School, Swargadwar, will have two new classrooms, while Shri Balwant Adarsh Sanskrit Higher Secondary School, Dugwa, Devgarh, will undergo renovation of five classrooms and the construction of one new classroom.
In Gautam Buddh Nagar, Gurukul Higher Secondary Sanskrit School, Sikandrabad, Mandi Shyam Nagar, will have six classrooms and stairways built. In Azamgarh, Shri Dharma Sanskrit Higher Secondary School, Jindopur, will have one new classroom. These schools will also benefit from reconstruction, expansion, and electrification under Project Alankar.
In Varanasi, five Sanskrit schools will be upgraded. Shri Bhagwan Vishnu Swami Satua Baba Sanskrit Higher Secondary School, Shri Rudra Bhadratma Sanskrit School, Shri Saraswati Sanskrit Higher Secondary School, Shri Adarsh Shankar Sanskrit School, and Shri Annapurna Rishikul Brahmacharya Ashram Sanskrit Secondary School will undergo classroom renovations and new construction, including principal rooms, office rooms, verandas, staircases, and electrification.
In Shahjahanpur, Savitri Devi Dharmik Sanskrit Mahavidyalaya, Tilhar, will receive two new classrooms and a toilet facility. The initiative aims to enhance the learning environment and preserve Sanskrit education across Uttar Pradesh.
Under Project Alankar, these 11 aided Sanskrit schools in Uttar Pradesh will not only undergo classroom construction and renovation but also see the development of modern facilities. These schools will be equipped with advanced labs and infrastructure, allowing students to benefit from Sanskrit education integrated with modern technology.
Earlier, a lack of resources led to poor classroom conditions, but with the introduction of modern classrooms and labs, students will now experience an improved and technologically advanced learning environment. This initiative aims to enhance the quality of education and promote interest in Sanskrit studies.
CM Yogi has always prioritized Sanskrit education and the preservation of Indian culture. Through Project Alankar, the development of modern facilities in these schools will benefit both students and teachers, providing a better academic and teaching environment.
