INTRODUCTION:

The Assam Rifles Public School (Sports) which was previously known as Assam Rifles Public School, Laitkor, Shillong was inaugurated by Late L.P. Singh, the then Governor of the Seven Sister States of the North East of India on 10th of October, 1980. The School was the brainchild of the then Director General of Assam Rifles, Late General Sushil Kumar; the founding father of Assam Rifles Public School. Late Mr. M.N. Tankha was the First Principal of the School. The preliminary batches of the School comprised of Class IV to Class VII. Assam Rifles Public School is the premier educational institute of the Assam Rifles and provides public-boarding school education facilities to children of all ranks of the Assam Rifles personnel including the civilian population of the North East of India. The first batch of Class XII students passed out of the School in March 1986.

The School has been described as the “heritage institute of the North East” and is located at the scenic rolling hills of Laitkor, Shillong. It provides an ideal platform for a student to grow with a healthy body and a focused mind, encompassing all facets of intellectual, moral and academic education. The hallmark of its schooling system is development of character, courage and competence. Apart from academic brilliance, the school has always focused on extra- curricular & co-curricular activities to help a student develop an all-round personality. Today, the Alumni diaspora of Assam Rifles Public School is present in almost every walk of life and is spread in almost every State of India and across the globe.

The Alumni body of Assam Rifles Public School (herein after referred to as ARPS) is called the Old Laitkorians’ Association. It owes its existence to Late M.N. Tankha who laid the foundations of the Old Laitkorians’ Association in 1986. Old Laitkorians’ Association was formed by its School Alumni with the objective of establishing a contact among its alumni members and at the same time strengthen their bond with the alma mater. The Old Laitkorians’ Association (herein after referred to as OLA) is officially recognized through its Memorandum of Association and is registered under the Indian Societies Registration Act, 1960.
