This exam will determine the eligibility of registered construction workers’ children and those orphaned by the pandemic for admission to the prestigious institution. With teaching scheduled to commence in July 2023, the Atal Residential School aims to provide free education, modern facilities, and a nurturing environment to students from Classes 6 to 12.

Deputy Labor Commissioner, Rakesh Dwivedi, revealed that the entrance test will be conducted across various cities, including Lucknow, Rae Bareli, Unnao, Hardoi, Sitapur, and Lakhimpur Kheri.
