## ANSWER

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

(a)&  (d):  Grant-in-aid  is  provided  to  Kendriya  Vidyalaya  Sangathan  (KVS)  under three distinct heads viz. Salaries, General and Capital Assets. The grants released by  the  Government  of  India  to  KVS  in  the  last  5  years  and  current  year  are  as follows:-

| Year    | Head    | Head    | Head    | Rs. in crore   |
|---------|---------|---------|---------|----------------|
|         | Salary  | General | Capital |                |
| 2013-14 | 2144.55 | 400.42  | 230.00  | 2774.97        |
| 2014-15 | 2510.86 | 409.42  | 322.87  | 3243.15        |
| 2015-16 | 2500.00 | 398.47  | 380.00  | 3278.47        |
| 2016-17 | 3109.95 | 400.57  | 476.73  | 3987.25        |
| 2017-18 | 3628.15 | 694.86  | 674.24  | 4997.25        |
| 2018-19 | 3435.65 | 758.00  | 231.35  | 4425.00        |

This allocation is made on a consolidated basis and not State / UT-wise. Part of this fund is utilized by KVS for opening of new Kendriya Vidyalayas (KVs) also.New KVs are opened under Civil / Project and Institute of Higher Learning (IHL) sectors. The State  /  UT-wise  details  of  KVs  opened  and  made  operational  during  the  last  five years including the current year are given in Annexure-I .

- (b) & (c): KVS has informed that administrative approval and expenditure sanction for Rs.1831.62  Lakh  was  conveyed  in  June-2017  for  construction  of  school  building, staff  quarters,  and  boundary  wall  at  KV  Malajkhand.  However,  due  to  paucity  of funds the construction agency was advised not to initiate/accept tenders for the work. Accordingly,  the  construction  work  could  not  be  started.The  stop  order  has  since been withdrawn by KVS on 11 th July 2018.
- (e) During  the  last  5  years  including  current  year,  104  KVs  under  Civil  Sector have been sanctioned by the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA). 54 KVs were sanctioned in March, 2014 out of which 53 have been opened. Another 50 KVs  were  sanctioned  under  ''Challenge  Mode'  in  March,  2017  under  which  the sponsoring authorities who fulfill the norms of KVS within a specific time frame on 'first  come  first  served  basis'  were  accorded  priority  and  sanctions  were  utilized accordingly. Administrative orders for opening of KVs would be issued by KVS only after  transfer  of  requisite  land  in  favour  of  KV  concerned.    On  completion  of  the required pre-requisites, out of these 50 KVs, 37 KVs have been opened so far. State wise details of these new KVs are given in Annexure-II.
- (f) KVS does not acquire land for setting up of a new KV. The requisite extent of land has to be provided, free of cost, by the sponsoring authority concerned.
