## IIT AND KENDRIYA VIDYALAYA IN GUJARAT 3441. SHRI VINOD L. CHAVDA:

Will the Minister of HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT be pleased to state:

- (a) whether the Government has any plan to start Kendriya Vidyalaya and Navodaya Vidyalaya in Kutch, Gujarat; and
- (b) whether the Government proposes to set up new IITs in the country and if so, the details thereof?

## ANSWER MINISTER OF HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT

## (SHRI RAMESH POKHRIYAL 'NISHANK')

(a) Proposals for opening of new Kendriya Vidyalayas (KVs) are considered only if sponsored by Ministries or Departments of the Government of India / State Governments / Union Territories Administrations thereby committing resources for setting up a new KV as  well  as  the  availability  of  necessary  sanction  of  the  Government.    The  proposals received  from  various  sponsoring  authorities  for  opening  of  new  KVs  also  have  to compete  among  other  proposals  under  the  'Challenge  Method'.  45  KVs  are  already functioning in Gujarat. Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan has informed that no proposal in the prescribed proforma has been received from the State Government of Gujarat for opening of a new KV at Kutch. The Navodaya  Vidyalaya Scheme  provides for opening of one Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya  (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 to  make  available  requisite  suitable  land  free  of  cost  for  construction  of school buildings and the required temporary accommodation (free of rent) to start the Vidyalaya. However, actual sanction and opening of the JNV depends on the availability of funds and approval by the Competent Authority. All the districts of Gujarat have been covered under Navodaya Vidyalaya Scheme.One JNV has been sanctioned at Kutch in 1987-88 and is presently functioning from its permanent building.

- (b) No such proposal is under consideration at present. 23 IITs already exist in India.
