Dear Students, Parents, and Esteemed Members of the EMRS Shelti Family,

It gives me immense pleasure and a deep sense of pride to extend my warm greetings to you all. Eklavya Model Residential School (EMRS), Shelti stands as a symbol of quality education, discipline, and holistic development, committed to nurturing the academic and personal growth of tribal students in a safe, inclusive, and enriching residential environment.

Since its establishment, EMRS Shelti has shown steady progress toward academic excellence and all-round development. Guided by the core values of integrity, perseverance, and respect, our institution strives to empower students with knowledge, skills, and confidence to face the challenges of the modern world while remaining deeply rooted in their rich cultural heritage.

The year 2025 marks a significant phase of growth and transformation for EMRS Shelti. The induction of a young, dynamic, and highly committed team of educators through NESTS (National Education Society for Tribal Students) has brought fresh perspectives, innovative teaching practices, and renewed enthusiasm to our academic ecosystem.

“Education is the most powerful instrument for social transformation, shaping character, confidence, and a brighter future.”

It is truly encouraging to witness a calm, disciplined, and vibrant campus atmosphere where students display curiosity, creativity, and a strong desire to excel—not only in academics, but also in sports, arts, cultural activities, and leadership development. This balanced approach ensures the holistic growth of every learner entrusted to our care.

We express our sincere gratitude to NESTS for its visionary leadership and unwavering commitment to the educational upliftment of tribal communities across the nation. Their continuous guidance and support strengthen our resolve to provide quality education aligned with national standards.

At EMRS Shelti, we firmly believe that education is the most powerful tool for social transformation. With the collective efforts of our dedicated teachers, diligent students, and supportive parents, we remain committed to shaping responsible, confident, and compassionate citizens.

Let us continue this journey together with unity, determination, and a shared vision for a brighter, empowered, and self-reliant future.

Shri Rakesh Kumar Principal, EMRS Shelti
