SAINIK SCHOOL CHITTORGARH
History – Sainik School, Chittorgarh (Rajasthan) was established on 07 Aug 1961. It is one of the first five Sainik Schools started in various states by the Ministry of Defence, in association with respective State Governments under the aegis of Sainik School Society. The first batch of Class XI students of this School appeared for Indian School Certificate Examination during Nov-Dec 1961. Later, during 1978 the school changed over to CBSE, and now offers only Science stream at Senior Secondary level being a feeder institution to NDA. It is also a member of the All India Public Schools Conference (IPSC).
The saga of Chittorgarh where the School is located is replete with heroic tales of romance and chivalry. The history of this place revolves around its ancient fort which dates back to 566 AD when the reign of Sisodias of Mewar occupied a very special niche in the annals of history as a dynasty which upheld the values and kept alive its traditional independence.
Over the centuries, Chittorgarh was attacked by Allauddin Khilji, Bahadur Shah of Malwa and the Mughal Emperor, Akbar. The Rajput rulers displayed exemplary heroism, choosing death to surrender and dishonor, till the Fort was finally annexed to the Mughal Empire in 1567.
School Crest & Motto – Victory Tower of Chittorgarh was built by Rana Kumbha in 1440 AD to commemorate his victory over the combined forces of the neighboring kingdom of Malwa and Gujarat. Sainik School Chittorgarh has aptly selected this ‘ Vijay Stambh ‘ as the main motif of its crest with the rising sun, a symbol of the solar class of Rajputs, as backdrop, thus truly symbolizing its motto : ‘Dignity and Valour’.
