During his conversation with two sixth standard students, Ayesha and Poorvi, he wanted to know whether they can recite multiplication tables and appreciated Poorvi for her ability to tell the tables for 8 and 9 on the reverse. The minister spent about 30 minutes with the teachers and students.

The school has been relaying prayer and state anthem through a loudspeaker tied to a mango tree in the courtyard of the school. The sound is heard for a radius of two kilometres from the school. The children wear their uniforms and wear identity cards on school time and take part in the 'Vidyagama' educational activities conducted in their respective areas.
