About Us
At the heart of GYAN NIKETAN is a dream—one envisioned by our esteemed founder, Padma Shree Acharya Kunal Kishore, IPS and Mrs. Anita Kumnal, Philanthropist & Educationist, whose passion for education laid the foundation of this institution under the aegis of M.V.V.Nyas. With a firm belief that every child deserves access to quality learning and a nurturing environment, they established Gyan Niketan in the year 1986 with the goal of shaping not just educated minds, but responsible and compassionate citizens. The first batch appeared in the year 1990 through CBSE, New Delhi ad created an excellence at National Level.
From humble beginnings, Acharya Kishore Kunal and Mrs. Anita Kunal dreamed of a school where students could grow academically, physically, emotionally, and socially. That dream sustains and blooms in every classroom, every teacher, and every student who walks through our doors. Today, Gyan Niketan stands as a testament to that vision—committed to academic excellence, innovation, and values-driven education.
After several years of assiduous endeavour, the M. V. V. Nyas is now in a position to declare with conviction that Gyan Niketan is an excellent result oriented human resource development school of national repute with difference.

Spacious playground with multi discipline is added to its arena where students explore their potentials.
