==History==

The inspiration for setting up the Sainik Schools came from the Royal Indian Military College ([[Rashtriya Indian Military College|RIMC]]) and Royal Indian Military Schools (now called Rashtriya Military School or RMS) which have given India many service chiefs. 1 RIMC and 5 RMS were established by the government after the [[World War I]] to [[Indianisation (British India)|Indianise the British Colonial Military]] in India by providing [[Macaulayism|western style education]] with the aim to prepare the potential pool of future military officers. RIMC was established in 1922. Five RMS were established, namely [[Chail Military School]] in 1922, [[Ajmer Military School]] in 1930, [[Belgaum Military School]] in 1945, [[Bangalore Military School]] in 1946 and [[Dholpur Military School]] in 1962. First Sainik School came up in 1961. Additionally, there are several private military schools, Maharashtra has highest number of those.<ref name="print1"/> Oldest private military school is [[Bhonsala Military School]], which was established in 1937.

Although [[Sainik School, Lucknow]], established in 1960 was the first Sainik School, is not under the Sainik School Society, but rather under Uttar Pradesh Sainik Schools Society, which is registered under the [[Societies Registration Act, 1860|Indian Societies Registration Act]] (1860).<ref name="sainikschoolsociety.org"/>
