Now, I want you to adopt the remaining schools for their modernisation.”

Meanwhile, admission certificates were distributed to some students at the launch whereas hearing aids were given to some differently-abled students by the CM.

CM Yogi also talked about bringing changes to the curriculum to include the lives of great people of India and including sports for the holistic development of children.
