Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan has restored its earlier quota policy

To ensure smooth admission for children of central government employees, the Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan has restored its earlier quota policy under which the class strength would not be affected while accommodating students in reserved category.

As per the restored system, reservation will be given to students over and above the existing strength of a class in a central school.

According to this system, each class will have 40 seats. But another five students can be given admission under reserved category. The students given admission under reserved category will be above the normal strength, the Board of Governors of KVS has decided.

“The reserved students will not eat away the seats for general category students. The reservation will be above the existing class strength,” a ministry official said.

The KVS was following this quota system previously.

But it was amended few months back bringing the quota seats within the class strength.
