Ghai also expressed gratitude to the state government for Grant in Aid to the school and a good scholarship to the APST cadets. 
The Principal informed the Board about various assistances and freebies being provided to the cadets by Central and State Governments. With regard to shifting of Sainik School to Bilat from Niglok, the Board unanimously passed a resolution stating that the school can be relocated only after commissioning of the complete campus with requisite infrastructure of RCC structures and black top roads including other day to day amenities for cadets and staff. As the Bilat campus will be available probably by 2027, the Board asked the state government to continue the fund flow for day to day infrastructural needs at the present campus.
The Board re-elected Dr Marpe Sora as school Parent Representative for the academic year 2022-23.
