## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT (SHRI RAMESH POKHRIYAL 'NISHANK')

(a) to (e): The NavodayaVidyalaya Scheme envisages opening of one JawaharNavodayaVidyalaya (JNV) in each district of the country. Opening of  new JNVs  is a continuous process  which  depends on  the  willingness  of  the  concerned  State  Government/UT administration  to  make  available  requisite  suitable  land  free  of  cost  for  construction  of  the permanent building and making available required temporary building, free of rent, to run the Vidyalaya till the permanent building is constructed. 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) including the State of Jharkhand (except the districts in the State of Tamil Nadu which has not yet accepted the Scheme).

As on date, there are 637 functional JawaharNavodayaVidyalayas (JNVs) in the country. A  statement  showing  the  details  of  JNVs  operating  in  the  country  including  the  State  of Jharkhand, State/location-wise is annexed.
