## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF EDUCATION (SMT. ANNPURNA DEVI)

- (a) As per information received from Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan (KVS), 18 new Kendriya Vidyalayas (KVs) under Civil / Defence / Institute of Higher Learning / Project Sector have been opened throughout the country during the last three years (i.e. 202021, 2021-22 and 2022-23).  As on date, 53 KVs have been sanctioned in the State of Bihar out of which 49 KVs are functional and 04 KVs are non-functional. District-wise details of functional KVs in the State of Bihar are annexed.

(b)  to  (f)  Construction  of  permanent  buildings  for  KVs  is  a  continuous  process,  which depends upon identification of suitable land, completion of transfer / 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 per information received from KVS, out of 49 functional KVs in the State of Bihar, 15 KVs are functioning in temporary accommodation provided by the Sponsoring Authority concerned. Initially, KVs are made functional in the temporary accommodation provided by the Sponsoring Authority, as per KVS norms, till construction of the permanent Vidyalaya building on the land provided by the Sponsoring Authority free of cost.  KV Gopalganj was made functional in the year 2004-05 in the temporary accommodation provided by the Sponsoring Authority concerned. The construction of the KV Gopalganj school  building  could  not  be  started  as  the  sponsoring  authority  has  not  transferred  / leased requisite extent of land in favour of KVS.
