Dayanand Saraswati Inter College

Dayanand Saraswati Inter College is found in the Naubasta area of Kanpur. This is a busy part of the city, and the college has been a fixture here for many years. The building itself is quite large, with several wings and a dusty courtyard where the students gather for morning prayers or to hang out during their lunch hour. It’s a typical government-aided style college with high ceilings and heavy wooden doors. We cater to students in their intermediate years, which is a stressful time because of the board exams. You’ll often see groups of boys and girls sitting in the corridors or under the shade of the trees with their textbooks open. The classrooms are basic, filled with rows of old desks that have seen many batches of students pass through. We have a small staff room where the teachers sit and grade papers or drink tea between their periods. The walls are covered with old charts and notices about upcoming holidays or exam schedules. It is a place that feels very lived-in. There isn’t any corporate polish here; it’s just a real school with all the noise and hustle that comes with it. We do our best to keep things running smoothly, even when it gets crowded during the peak admission season. It is an important part of the Naubasta neighborhood, providing a place for local kids to finish their schooling.
