The All-India Sainik Schools Entrance Examination was conducted at the school on Sunday. This was a qualifying examination for admitting cadets in Classes VI and IX for the academic session 2018-19.
This year’s examination witnessed over 137 per cent rise in the number of candidates compared to previous years.
