2017 – 2018

 

On the occasion marking the 20th anniversary of DDKSSM, a 7 day puja (a.k.a. Bhagwat Katha) was hosted on the premises of DDKSSM in November of 2018. This event brought together several hundred members from the local community and was fully funded through donations from participants, local business owners and the Kapilashrami family.

Furthermore, DDKSSM published a book on the history of its institution which was released on the final day of the Bhagwat. While the trust of DDKSSM raised the funds required to publish this book, several others (including teachers, students, and prominent members from the local community) contributed to its content. Over 800 copies of the book were published and distributed among the participants and donors.

On the conclusion of the Bhagwat Katha, and the occasion of the release of the book on DDKSSM's history we had the great pleasure to have Shri Swami Vigyanand Maharaj ji and Mr. Gautam Bhattachharya (Deputy Ambassador of Sweden to India) among us.

With a generous donation of floor tiles from a local business owner in Haldwani, we successfully replaced the concrete floor in the dining room, kitchen, staff room, main office and courtyard on the ground level with new tile flooring. We would like to express our great appreciation to Mr. Shahi Chandra Chanchal ji (Trustee on the board of DDKSSM) who facilitated this donation, raised additional funds for installation of the new tiles as well as oversaw the installation.

We are proud to announce that the students of DDKSSM once again have done great in the board examination. The students have shown their consistent excellent performance in state exams and their rankings. In this connection, our students’ and institution’s achievements were recognized in the local press.

2016 – 2017

 

 

This year our focus was to raise funds and donations towards improving our housing facilities. This included:

  • Providing students new beds and bedding.

  • Performing renovation and repair work of student hostel (e.g. repair of broken windows, replacement of malfunctioning ceiling fans and repaint the rooms).

  • Installing CCTV cameras across the campus to enhance the overall security of our students and personnel. We would like to extend our great appreciation to Mr. Patalya ji (Trustee and Secretary of the board of DDKSSM) for his donations for the security camera and facilitating the installation.

In addition, we facilitated issuance of government identity cards for all our students.

2015 – 2016

 

In 2016 we completed and inaugurated Madan Mohan Kapilashrami Vidya Mandir. We are now working towards raising funds and expanding our school administration to allow us seek government approval for operating and conducting higher education.

Following several years of persistent and dedicated efforts by the board of DDKSSM, we are extremely pleased to announce the state government of Uttarakhand granted our application for government aid to cover the salaries of our teachers and school staff. DDKSSM will now be receiving grants to cover salaries of five teachers, one administrative officer and one kitchen personnel.

This is a great achievement in that we can now offer our teachers and staff members competitive salaries to that offered in government schools while cutting down our own costs (salaries and related expenses represents nearly 2/3 or our institutions monthly expenses).

This year our annual day function, held in December 2016, was a heartwarming event to review accomplishment of our students and present the same to our local community members.

The residential camp had in total 30 students participating from various remote areas of the state of Uttaranchal (including some students of DDKSSM), and was a pilot project for other camps in the Uttaranchal being led by UANA throughout 2011.

 

With a generous donation from UANA we could bring broad band internet connection to our computer lab and thus more content to our curriculum for the computer classes.

Accompanying him were the local media, security escorts and various local government officials. Following the welcome speech from our chief administrator, Dr. U. C. Mishraji, and various board members, the students performed a variety of cultural and recreational activities.

True to his promise, Shri Koshiyari ji made a very generous donations of Rs. 500 000 from his own discretionary funds with promise of additional government assistance in the future. The school was truly a buzz with activity and excitement that day, with the teachers and student looking their very best.
