Srinagar, Jul 11 (KNS) The Indian Army's Dagger Division, under Chinar Corps, today inaugurated the upgraded Government Boys Middle School at Khabna in Baramulla's Uri sector, officials said.
The project was executed in partnership with the Bank of New York (BNY) and the International Association for Human Values (IAHV).
The upgraded infrastructure includes a six-classroom academic block, a modern Mid-Day Meal kitchen, and two sanitation blocks, they said.
