## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT (SHRI UPENDRA KUSHWAHA)

- (a) Consequent  upon  issuance  of  detailed  guidelines,  by  Cabinet  Secretariat, vide letter No. 272/1/3/2016-CA.V dated 20.09.2017 regarding selection of sites for various  projects/  institutions  /  schemes  etc.  under  the  'Challenge  Method',  all  the new proposals for opening of new KVs will henceforth be considered in accordance with these guidelines.

(b) KVs are opened primarily to cater to the educational needs of the wards of transferable Central Government Employees including Defence personnel on receipt of  the  proposal  in  the  prescribed  proforma  from  a  Ministry  /  Department  of Government  of  India  /  State  Governments  /  Union  Territory  Administration  and committing thereby availability of requisite resources for setting up a new KV as well as on availability of necessary sanction of the Government.The location / district wise details of 152 proposals received by KVS for opening of new KVs at various places in  the  country,  including  Baliguda  (Odisha)  and  Maharajganj  (Uttar  Pradesh)  are annexed.

The  Navodaya  Vidyalaya  Scheme  provides  for  opening  of  one  Navodaya Vidyalaya  in  each  district  of  the  country.  Opening  of  new  JNVs  is  a  continuous process  which  depends  on  the  willingness  of  the  concerned  State  Government  to make available requisite suitable land free of cost of construction of school buildings and  required  temporary  accommodation  (free  of  rent)  to  start  the  Vidyalaya. However,  actual  sanction  and  opening  of  new  JNV  depends  on  the  availability  of funds and approval by the Competent Authority. One JNV each has been sanctioned in all the districts of the country as on 31 st May 2014, excluding Tamil Nadu which has not yet accepted the Navodaya Vidyalaya Scheme.

(c) Question of administrative and financial sanctions does not arise as KVs at these locations have not been sanctioned.

(d) Various  studies  have  been  undertaken  to  evaluate  the  functioning  of  the JNVs.  Recently  the  Programme  Evaluation  Organization,  NITI  AAYOG  hadcarried out  an  evaluation  study  of  the  Navodaya  Vidyalaya  Samiti.  The  study  covered  for organizational except such as Management of JNVs, Coverage of Scheme, Flow of Funds, Admission Procedure, Infrastructure, Inspection, Medical and Health Facilities,  Grievance  Redressal  etc.  The  study  was  based  on  a  sample  size  of  56 JNVs.

(e) No such target has been fixed for opening of new KVs during the next three years.
