KVS Launches Three Digital Initiatives
On November 12, 2026, Union Education Minister Pralhad Joshi launched three digital initiatives of the Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan (KVS) in New Delhi: the AI-integrated Vidya Samiksha Kendra, the KVS-Samvaad Parent Connect App and Web Portal, and the KVS Alumni Connect Portal.
Features of the digital platforms
The Vidya Samiksha Kendra, available at samiksha.kvs.gov.in, provides real-time dashboards on student and staff attendance, academic performance, school infrastructure and admissions. Its ‘Samiksha’ AI Bot analyses data, identifies gaps and proposes interventions to support timely decision-making.

The initiatives are aligned with the objectives of the National Education Policy 2020 and the Digital India vision. Joshi encouraged their expansion across all Kendriya Vidyalayas, classes and locations, and suggested extending them beyond KVS in collaboration with the Department of School Education and Literacy.
