Sainik
Schools- Everything you need to know!
Sainik
Schools, as we know it, are purely meant for young men who wish to serve the
nation. My knowledge was limited to this single statement. However, there is a
lot more as we shall see in this article. Sainik when translated means
‘Soldier’; these are a system of schools in India established and
managed by the Sainik Schools Society under the Ministry of Defence. They were
conceived in 1961 by V. K. Krishna Menon, the then Defence Minister
of India, to rectify the imbalance caused by religion, class, and creed among
the Officer cadre of the Indian Military and to prepare students for entry
into the National Defence Academy (NDA) and the Indian Naval Academy
(INA). Today there are 25 such schools across India. These schools come under
the purview of the respective state governments and Ministry of Defence.
These schools admit only boys and as the name suggests, they are groomed into
little soldiers who will, later on, grow to serve the Nation.
History
of Sainik Schools
Sainik
Schools draw inspiration from the Rashtriya Indian Military College or RIMC.
The objective of the Sainik Schools is to prepare the students to lead

examination and mold their personality in order for them to become leaders of
the Nation. Seats are reserved for children of serving Defence personnel and
