From the Desk of The Chairman, VVS :
Stride ahead……
It is a pleasure that Vidya Vardhaka Sangha is launching its website for all stakeholders to know about its objectives, its future vision, its educational foundations, its institutions and their accomplishments. VVS being a society-oriented institution it is quite necessary that the people around are aware of all these, hence the significance of this step. Being abreast with up-to-date technology and its utilization are a dire need today as its inevitability, timely use and effectiveness have been conveyed with its masterly stroke, a lesson to be salvaged, from lethal corona. Volumes of information can be communicated through just a couple of pages by the use of technology to people thousands of miles away. I am sure that the people in charge of this responsibility will make it dynamic, user-friendly, easy for access and informative so that all those interested in noble-minded education gather what they require. I wish it would be put into all its possible uses.
