I am a kvn and our resent dress is quite uncomfortable special in summer as our new session is going to start therefore please implement the uniform as soon as possible we seriously need change in our dresses
for both boys and girls
My daughter is a KVian and she is not comfortable with the current uniform and so as her friends..the fabric of the kurta is synthetic blended with cotton and is really uncomfortable especially during summer season
Advantage:Khadi clothes good for all season. Having large number of KV in India?? this intelligent move may boost and revive the khadi industry and provide employment to many people.
Disadvantage: over 50percent students in KV belongs to BPL and khadi dress need a regular cleaning and ironing hence maintaince cost is more.
Having all these thought process, small businesses people take advantage of something new that government should think to provide clothes in subsidised rate to school management and /or Sign competitive rate contracts with proper quality inspection with local vendors to provide dress in school with a subsidised rate
Khadi thik hai hum mante hai agar aap kisi dukan wale se pucho to kya kaihte hai sabke paas lakho ka stock pra hai chota dukan dar kya karega ye bhi socho ya unko time do stock clear karne ka
It’s good only but how the students can wear regularly it’s too expensive it is not possible for BPL students and poor people……by Zion school service Tiruvannamalai TN
This initiative for khadi could be an imagination but not practical. Daily we need to wash and iron the cloths for fit India hyegine. In sports period the same cloths are worn, even wards sitting on floors for gatherings in school premises. Kindly change your recommended present ratio(90% polyester+10% cot) to 80% cotton+20%poly stuff with same pattern of uniform which is designed by NIFT. This cotton rich stuffs are plentily available in market and also worn by all students across the country after vast struggle by parents,retailers,wholesales and production sectors to procure itDR

Changing of uniform of children is a good thought albeit it should be a planned & well organized action.
1. Top officials of KVS Sangathana & Shri Santosh Kumar Mall should start wearing khadi immediately so as to know actual difficulties of procuring, maintaining & using the fabric on regular basis.
2. Cost of khadi is not at par with terrycot or polyester or mix synthetic fabric.
3. Availability of khadi fabric in all nooks & corners in India as KVs are spread all over india.
Coming up with a thought & successful implementation is two different aspects.
All the best…
It very good initiative by the KVS n Govt of India (MHRD).
Being a ex-student n currently my child is also student of KVS or part of this great institution / Faimly, I will say it is a wonderful initiative, which should be taken before / earlier era.
Very true.the present uniform is very thick and specially the scouts and bulbull uniform.though they wear 2 days in a week but very uncomfortable.thank u for the initiative.well thought for the students.
I love gandhi and his ideologies but this is plain dumb. Do they know how expensive khadi is? How are poor parents going to afford. plus khadi life is limited so you will need to by more pairs of uniforms. Gandhi started khadi movement asking indians to boycott foriegn made clothes. today we export fabrics and clothes. Please use common sense.
A very good step to inculcate Gandhian thoughts and values in basic education. As kvs is under CBSE/MHRD, should see its 100% implementation to become real apex institution in our country. Not only students but also teachers,head-teachers, administrators,officers at regional and ZIETs and headquarters should be part and parcel of this great opportunity.
One suggestion to KVS(Hqrs.) before its implementation, to supply free of cost two sets uniform to all students irrespective category and financial status.

Excellent initiative, I agreed with the proposal if agreed by the governing body. I through out a KVians. Khadi will definitely give comfortable to the students, now a days the scorching summer will definitely give relief.
Definitely the economy of the khadi producing units/factory will gain its popularity and usage.
Let’s change our mindset by introducing khadi across the country.
I studied in Kendriya Vidyalayas all through my schooling days. My precious possession was a handy-me down terrycot skirt. This meant I could wear the skirt 2-3 times before washing it and it would dry overnight for being worn the next day. It needed little or no ironing. School uniforms should be easy to wash, maintain and wear. If Khadi can serve the purpose, then it is perfectly alright. Will the teachers also wear Khadi? That would be appropriate.
I am a kv student aur mujhe abhi jo dress h wo hi comfortable lgti h pls dress mt change kijiye

is khadi cost effective?
QUESTIONS UN ANSWERED?
1- IS IT GOING TO BE HAND WOVEN BY HUMON HAND
PROVIDING EMPLOYMENT FOR MILLIONS RURAL INDIANS?
THIS IS WHAT YOU CLAIM
WHO WILL TAKE RESPONSIBLITY FOR PROVIDING UNIFORM CLOTH FOR 13 LAKH KV STUDENTS
ACROSS INDIA – THAT TOO HAND MADE CLOTH?
IS THE DATE FOR CHANGE OVER IS SET? NEXT RE-OPENING OR THE YEAR AFTER
HOW MANY MAN DAYS ARE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE THE NECESSAY CLOTH FOR ALL STUDENTS?

I think before going to start it in KVS, Govt should start it at various Countries C. G. Office first.
Very true.the present uniform is very thick and specially the scouts and bulbull uniform.though they wear 2 days in a week but very uncomfortable.thank u for the initiative.well thought for the students.
Good initiative, one should realise the basic need and adaptability which was visualised by our father of nation a century ago.
Long live India
As a kv student , I appreciate the initiative of khadi . Taking back India to it’s original form !

Khadi for school is a good initiative.Provided teachers are also made to wear the same..
Excellent initiative, I agreed with the proposal if agreed by the governing body. I through out a KVians. Khadi will definitely give comfortable to the students, now a days the scorching summer will definitely give relief.
Definitely the economy of the khadi producing units/factory will gain its popularity and usage.

Except some schools in big cities most schools have pathetic infrastructure. They should also look into that.
Really aone step ahead towards golden era in Indian history Hats Off to KVS.
Most of centers doesn’t have permanent buildings neither safty compounds, till from opening 4-5 years after… please look after that
Good move by the government.
That’s amazing ,that the children’s wear real Indian khadi uniforms .
That’s very good.
I appreciate the initiative of khadi by Ministry of HRD. Good move by the government.
