Four meritorious girl students of the Government Senior Secondary School for Excellence, Chiyog, were given a five-day educational and tourism tour of Jaipur, Rajasthan, at the Principal’s expense, for their outstanding performance in the 2025-26 academic year. Priyanshi, Sameeksha, Sania, and Gunjan, the overall toppers for their outstanding performance in classes 9th to 12th, were also given the experience of air travel during the tour.
During their stay in Jaipur, the students visited the city’s major historical, cultural, and tourist attractions. Among these were the Hawa Mahal, City Palace, Amer Fort, Jal Mahal, Chaukhi Dhani Museum, Albert Hall Museum, Birla Mandir, and Patrika Gate.
