The idea of Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan in Kuwait was first

initiated by our Chairman in the year 2000. However, it

took another six years to see his dreams come true.

Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan , Kuwait was started in 2006. It

was no easy task to get the approval of Bharatiya

Vidya Bhavan to start a school outside of India. This shows the focus and intense determination that

our Chairman had to maintain to achieve his goals. In

the six years since 2000 he did not change his plans to

venture out as a business man but realized his dream

of a school.
