Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan (KVS) released the first merit list for Class I admissions today for the year 2019-20. The provisionally selected list of candidates who have secured admission to Kendriya Vidyalaya has been posted on individual school website. Also physical copy of the list will be posted in the school notice board. All the parents/guardians who had applied for admission for class I are requested to check these two avenues for the merit list.

Please note that no merit list has been or will be published on KVS official website - kvsangathan.nic.in or on KVS online admission portal - kvsonlineadmission.in. Instead merit lists can be accessed from school websites, for example KV CME Pune website - kvcme.org has the provisional list of candidates selected under several categories for admission to class I in 2019-20. Similarly other schools have uploaded the first merit on their respective sites.
