The renowned institute Parwati Prema Jagati Saraswati Vihar is situated in the serene surroundings of Nainital. Vidya Bharati is grateful to the reputed Jagati family, which donated 21 acres of land for establishing the school dedicated to education with moral values and ethics on 24th July 1983, the auspicious occasion of Guru Purnima. Mrs. Parwati Devi (the mother of Mr. Narendra Lal Shah Jagati) was deeply pleased after donating the land for such a noble cause. Bhartiya Shiksha Samiti, Uttar Pradesh , gave the school its name — Parwati Prema Jagati Saraswati Vihar Senior Secondary Residential School.

The very ambiance of the Himalayan region is conducive to the development of noble traditions, fine qualities, and a well-integrated personality. A child growing up in this environment can never come under the morbid influences of the outside world. Educationists have chosen hill stations like Shimla, Mussoorie, and Nainital for establishing residential schools to preserve our national heritage, moral ethics, and patriotic spirit in the youth, as these regions offer a calm and quiet atmosphere — ideal for meditation and the pursuit of knowledge.

After conducting several experiments in the field of education and establishing quality institutions, Vidya Bharati aspired to set up a residential school in the hill region. The school was intended to give a new direction to the young generation and to shape their personalities in harmony with the culture and traditions of India. All students are nurtured with moral education, inspiring them to dedicate themselves to the service of the motherland.
