The Kendriya Vidyalayas are a network of central government-overseen schools in India, formed under the aegis of the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD), affiliated to the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), headquartered in New Delhi. The functioning of these schools is overseen by the Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan which is an autonomous body under India's Ministry of Human Resources and Development.[1]
