History

The first Delhi Public School in Kanpur was established at Servodaya Nagar in 1997. However, as the students of the primary school grew older and their need for holistic development expanded, the management felt the need for larger premises for the senior school. Consequently, DPS Azaad Nagar was established as an institution on Mainawati Marg, on a vast expanse of land. The founder Headmistress of DPS Servodaya Nagar, Mrs. Rachna Mohotra, became the Principal of the Senior School at DPS Azaad Nagar. DPS Servodaya Nagar continues to function as a feeder school for DPS Azaad Nagar under the supervision and guidance of its Headmistress, Anju Verma.[2][3][4]
