## ANSWER MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF EDUCATION

## (SMT. ANNPURNA DEVI)

(a) During  the  last  three  years  i.e.  2018-19  to  2020-21,  69  Kendriya  Vidyalayas (KVs)  have  been  approved  under  Civil,  Project  &  Institute  of  Higher  Learning  (IHL) sectors in the country. Out of the 69 KVs approved in the last 3 years, 6 (six) KVs are in Bihar. The district and state-wise details are annexed.

At  present,  there  are  1245  KVs  (including  49  KVs  in  Bihar)  functioning  in  the country.

- (b)  &  (c)  01  KV  is  functioning  at  Kahal  Gaon  (NTPC),  district  Bhagalpur,  Bihar. Opening of new KVs is a continuous process. KVs are opened primarily to cater to the educational needs of the wards of transferable Central Government Employees including  Defence  &  Para-Military  personnel,  Central  Autonomous  Bodies,  Central Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs) and Central Institute of Higher Learning (IHL) by

providing a common programme of education. Proposals for opening of new KVs are considered  only  if  sponsored  by  Ministries  or  Departments  of  the  Government  of India / State Governments / Union Territories (UTs) Administrations and committing resources for setting up a new KV. The proposals received from various sponsoring authorities found fulfilling the mandatory pre-requisites for opening of new KVs have to compete with other such proposals under the 'Challenge Method' and subject to approval of the competent authority. Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan (KVS) has not received  any  proposal  in  the  prescribed  proforma  from  the  State  Government  of Bihar for opening of a new KV at Navgachia, sub-division of district Bhagalpur, Bihar.

(d) & (e) 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.  As  such,  no definite time frame can be given in this regard. In the matter of KV Darbhanga, the land has not been transferred in favour of KVS by the Sponsoring Authority so far.
