About us

Kailash Wati Varma (KWV) Public School was founded in 2016 in village Kheri Khurd, Shyampur, Rishikesh, under the aegis of Kailash Wati Varma Ashram, a registered charitable trust. The Trust was founded in 2013 by two retired teachers Ms Manorama Bhatnagar and her cousin brother Dr Narendra Swarup Bhatnagarwith the objective of facilitating holistic education and other related activities, supporting the underprivileged sections of the Society in the rural regions. The driving force behind these endeavours was Ms Manorama Bhatnagar who retired as Head of the Department of Drawing & Painting in 1991 from MKP (PG) College, a premier girl's institution founded in 1902 in Dehradun. She bequeathed half her worldly assets to the Trust with a proviso that a corpus be created and only its interest be utilised for the Trust activities. The Trust did just that after her unfortunate demise in 2019.

Education: The Prime Motive


Dr Narendra Swarup Bhatnagar, after retiring from Roorkee University (now IIT, Roorkee) in 1995, settled down at his farm in village Kheri Khurd, Shyampur, near Rishikesh. Inspired by his cousin Ms. Manorama Bhatnagar, Dr. Bhatnagar constructed ten rooms on a tract of his land, equipped it, leased it to the Trust and KWV Public School came into being in 2016. Recently, he has leased a large portion of his land to the Trust for 29 years on a nominal rent of Re.1/- per month. He has also bequeathed his entire property to the Trust.
