## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF EDUCATION (SHRI JAYANT CHAUDHARY)

(a) to (b): The Department of School Education & Literacy (DoSEL), Ministry of Education has launched  an  overarching  centrally  sponsored  scheme  for  the  school  education  sector  viz;  the Samagra Shiksha Scheme in alignment with the National Education Policy 2020 and the Right of Persons  with  Disabilities  (RPwD)  Act,  2016.  Under  Samagra  Shiksha,  there  is  a  dedicated component for Inclusive Education for Children with Special Needs (CwSN) to ensure that all children irrespective of their disabilities or extent thereof are able to study in inclusive schools. The scheme looks at the education of CwSN in a continuum from pre-school to class XII and covers all CwSN with one or more disabilities, including those with benchmark disabilities, as mentioned in the Schedule of disabilities of the RPwD Act, 2016 studying in Government and Government-aided schools.

Statements showing State/UT-wise and gender-wise enrollment of CwSN from pre-school to class XII, including those with benchmark disabilities, across the country and district-wise and gender-wise CwSN  enrollment from pre-school to class XII in Andhra Pradesh in Government/Government aided and local body schools during the last five years i.e. from 201920 to 2023-24, as per UDISE+, is at Annexure-I and Annexure-II respectively.

(c)  to  (e):  Under  Samagra  Shiksha,  funding  for  all  student-oriented  interventions  under  the Inclusive Education for CwSN component is provided @ Rs.3,500 per CwSN per annum covering learning  support,  therapeutic  services,  devices  support,  home  based  education,  and  financial support  for  transportation,  escort  and  readers/  scribes,  as  required.  Additionally,  there  is  a provision of stipend for girl children with special needs @ Rs.200/- per month for 10 months (Rs.2,000/-  per  annum)  to  improve  representation  of  CwSN  girls  in  school  and  encourage completion of schooling.

Funding  support  under  Samagra  Shiksha  is  provided  as  per  the  Annual  Work  Plan  & Budget (AWP&B) submitted by the States/UTs and approved by the Project Approval  Board (PAB).  Each  State/UT  proposes  budget  for  each  activity  under  various  components  in  the AWP&B.  The  proposals  after  appraisal  are  approved  by  the  PAB  and  implemented  by  the States/UTs  based  on  funding  pattern  between  Centre  &  State/UT  of  60:40,  90:10,  100%  as applicable.  Further, as per the Framework for Implementation of the Samagra Shiksha Scheme, recruitment and other service matters of teachers are under the domain of State/UT Governments with the scheme only providing lumpsum (aggregate) support as per the Financial Management and Procurement (FMP) Manual of Samagra Shiksha.

Statements  showing  State/UT-wise  CwSN  girls  who  received  stipend  under  Samagra Shiksha across the country along with the funds allocated during the last five years i.e. from 201920 to 2023-24 is at Annexure-III .

Statements showing State/UT-wise number of Government/Government aided and local body  schools  having  special  educators  and  district-wise  number  of  Government/Government aided and local body schools having special educators in Andhra Pradesh during the last five years i.e. from 2019-20 to 2023-24, as per UDISE+, is at Annexure-IV and Annexure-V respectively.
