Shri S.K. Jha, the Joint Secretary of the CBDT under the Ministry of Finance, conducted an inspection at the PM Shri Cantonment Board Secondary School located in Dalhousie. His visit focused on evaluating the educational facilities available to students, and he expressed his commitment to providing support for the school's growth.

Upon his arrival, he was warmly greeted by the school’s Principal, Reena Kumari, who presented him with a bouquet. Additionally, Deputy Ranger Sanjeev Kumar and Sanitary Inspector Babar Ali Khan were present to extend their greetings. The principal also honored Shri Jha with a traditional cap and shawl as a gesture of respect.

This institution was recognized as a PM Shri School in 2022, offering free education along with uniforms and textbooks to its students. The school has become a valuable resource not only for children residing in Dalhousie Cantonment but also for those from surrounding villages, whose families rent accommodations in the area. Currently, the school caters to students from Nursery through Class VIII.

Parents and students have approached Chief Executive Officer Sovik of Dalhousie Cantonment, requesting an extension of the school's affiliation to include up to Class X. Sovik has indicated that efforts are underway to facilitate this request.
