(b) to (d) Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan (KVS) has informed that a new KV in Banda District has been sanctioned in the year 2018 but could not be made functional as the  State  Government  has  not  provided  the  requisite  land  and  suitable  rent  free temporary building as per the norms.  KV Chitrakoot has been established and made functional  in  the  year  2011-12  in  the  temporary  accommodation  provided  by  the sponsoring authority.

Construction of permanent buildings for KVs is a continuous process, which depends upon identification of suitable land, completion of lease formalities in favour of  KVS  by  the  sponsoring  authorities,  submission  of  drawings  /  estimates  by construction  agency,  availability  of  funds  and  requisite  approvals  etc.  No  definite time frame can be given in this regard.
