Apart from all these challenges which were managed judiciously. The major challenge ever faced by this
institution was the political turmoil of 2016 when whole Kashmir was reeling under the reign of intense
crackdown.
In 2016, many schools were razed to ground by the unknown miscreants. The ruckus was created all

curtain. Safeguarding the school building becomes the biggest challenge. In those testing times, the faculty
members risking their lives kept vigil to guard the institution by making a night stays in the institution.

alive themselves by braving the eminent threat from the stone-pelters and the invisible hands behind the
curtain.
Such a challenge was not faced by any tactic or strategy. It only needed courage which was expressed by
faculty that time.
