The Minister said this while addressing the function on the occasion of the diamond jubilee of Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan in New Delhi.
Speaking on the occasion, Pradhan extended his wishes to students, staffers and alumni of Kendriya Vidyalayas and referred to the KVS as a "banyan tree".
उत्कृष्टता के हीरक जयंती पर पूरे @KVS_HQ परिवार को मेरी शुभकामनाएं। पिछले छः दशकों से केंद्रीय विद्यालय संगठन गुणवत्तापूर्ण शिक्षा से विद्यार्थियों का भाग्योदय कर रहा है।

"For the last six decades, the Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan has been providing quality education to the students. This banyan tree of education is a major factor in the development of India. Today, when we are moving towards the goal of Viksit Bharat, the role of KVS becomes more important," he said.
Pradhan hoped that the KVs would continue to provide their support in nation-building through education as per the needs of the 21st century and with the implementation of National Education Policy. He added that students from Kendriya Vidyalayas will emerge as future thought and intellectual leaders.
Expressing confidence in KVS' leadership role in the coming 25 years, during Amrit Kaal, Minister Pradhan advocated for the adoption of modern multidimensional approaches, aligning with NEP and advancements like Artificial Intelligence (AI).
