Tripura to introduce standardized uniforms in all government schools
Starting with the 2025-26 school year, all government schools in Tripura—including Vidyajyoti and PM-SHRI—will roll out standardized uniforms.
The move, announced via an official notification on September 10, 2025, is meant to give students a more unified look across the state.
What about other schools?
Vidyajyoti and PM-SHRI schools will share one uniform design, while other government schools will have their own version.
Four schools—Shishu Bihar Higher Secondary, Sukhamoy Higher Secondary, Umakanta Academy, and PM Shri Radha Kishore Institution—won't have to switch.
District Education Officers will make sure everything runs smoothly for classes 1 through 12.
Transition period for students
For the upcoming 2025-26 year, students can wear either their old or new uniforms so no one has to scramble.
Plus, under the Samagra Shiksha scheme, kids in classes 1-8 are already getting new uniforms for free.
As Director NC Sharma put it: "which has prompted the government to provide dress to the students instead of cash."
