Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan (KVS) held its mega cultural and literary youth extravaganza KVS “Ek Bharat Shreshth Bharat Parv” coinciding with the occasion of birth anniversary of country’s first home minister, SardarVallabhbhai Patel to celebrate nation’s Unity in Diversity and to reconnect and preserve the widespread emotional bonds among the people of our country. In all 28 competitive events took place over four days which began on Oct 31 with 2375 participants.

To add on pleasant flavors of Indian culture and traditions, participants from all 25 KVS regions are paired to represent another state different than their own.

All the 25 regions of KVS are allotted one state different from their own state and one Country. The students prepare projects/exhibits on the culture, customs, dress, crops, economy, climate etc. of the state and of the country allotted to them.

Minister for Human Resource Development Ramesh Pokhriyal‘Nishank’ while inaugurating the carnival said, “In our journey of making and forming new India it is our challenge to be a world leader in the fields of Science and Education till 2021.” While addressing the event Sanjay Shamrao Dhotre, MoS, paid his homage to the first Home Minister of India, Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel and also commended the Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan for organizing “Ek Bharat Shreshtha Bharat Parv.” Santosh Kumar Mall, Commissioner, KVS discussed the idea of EBSB Parv with the august gathering.
