On the issue of scholarship for students from underprivileged backgrounds, the Vice-Chancellor assured that the university will look into the possibilities of doing the needful in this regard. He suggested that exchange programs may be worked out to facilitate visits of BHU’s school teachers to other reputed schools and institutions and vice-versa for the benefit of teachers and students. He said that harmony and collegiality among the members of BHU fraternity hold the key to institution’s growth, which in turn translate into individual’s welfare. He lauded the efforts and hard work of Prof. Anjali Vajpayee as principal in smooth functioning of the school. Prof. Vajpayee, a professor in the Faculty of Education has been officiating as Principal of Central Hindu Girls School for nearly two years.
She apprised the Vice-Chancellor about the activities, facilities, student & teacher strength and other key aspects of the school.
