The Gurukul
Gurukul is a living embodiment of vedic ideals and Indian culture. It is a center fit for academic pursuits and harmonious development of the individual. It is spread over 10-acre tract of level land in the lap of uncontaminated natural lush green surroundings and far from the madding crowds. Situated in silent, serene and dust-free solitudes, this Gurukul is a veritable abode of peace and tranquillity fit for penance and inner pursuits.
