## ANSWER MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT (Dr. SATYA PAL SINGH)

(a) to (c): No,  Madam.  Setting  up  of  schools  does  not  come  under  the  scope  of Rashtriya  Uchchatar  Shiksha  Abhiyan  (RUSA)  as  this  scheme  is  concerned  with  higher education.

Samagra  Shiksha  (SS)-  an  Integrated  Scheme  for  School  Education  has  been launched throughout the country as a Centrally Sponsored Scheme (CSS) with effect from the  year  2018-19.  This  programme  subsumes  the  three  erstwhile  CSS  of  Sarva  Shiksha Abhiyan  (SSA),  Rashtriya  Madhyamik  Shiksha  Abhiyan  (RMSA)  and  Teacher  Education (TE).  As  on  date,  there  is  no  proposal  for  consideration  under  the  Samagra  Shiksha scheme for setting up of schools in Bihar.

A  proposal  from  the  State  Government  of  Bihar  for  establishing  2860  secondary schools in all uncovered gram Panchayat was received. Since the proposed plan did not have details of locations etc. of these schools, the proposal was not considered.

(d) The  State-wise  details  of  schools  sanctioned  and  opened  under  SSA&  RMSA  in 2017-18  and  schools  approved  under  Samagra  Shiksha    in  the  year  2018-19  is  at Annexure.
