SHIMLA----                    Inculcation of moral values is the need of the hour for which the teachers, educational institutions and society in general should come forward so that the ancient Indian system of education could be revived.

The building has been constructed by spending an amount of Rs 5.20 crore out of which, Rs 2.34 crore have been contributed by Satluj Jal Vidyut Nigam Limited (SJVNL).
