## STATEMENT  REFERRED  TO  IN  REPLY  TO  PARTS  (a)  TO  (e)  OF  LOK  SABHA STARRED  QUESTION  NO.  225  ANSWERED  ON  09TH  MARCH,  2026  ASKED  BY HON'BLE MPs SHRI ALOK SHARMA AND SHRI BALABHADRA MAJHI REGARDING INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT UNDER SAMAGRA SHIKSHA ABHIYAN:

(a) & (b) : Samagra Shiksha scheme is an integrated scheme for school education covering the entire gamut from pre-school to class XII. The scheme treats school education as a continuum and is in accordance with Sustainable Development Goal for Education (SDG-4). The scheme has been  aligned  with  the  recommendations  of  NEP  2020  to  ensure  that  all  children  have  access  to quality education with an equitable and inclusive classroom environment which should take care of their  diverse  background,  multilingual  needs,  different  academic  abilities  and  make  them  active participants in the learning process.

Samagra  Shiksha  Scheme  supports  creation of infrastructure and basic facilities in Government Schools, both through direct programme funding and also in convergence with other relevant  schemes  of  the  Central  and  State  Governments.  State-wise  approval  of  infrastructure facilities  under  Samagra  Shiksha  in  last  3  year  is  attached  at Annexure-I. Further,  basic infrastructure facilities approved for Bulandshahr and Siddharthnagar in Uttar Pradesh, Bengaluru in Karnataka, Nabarangpur, Shimla, Jalgaon and Bharatpur Lok Sabha Constituencies are attached at Annexure-I(A). Current  status  of  State-wise  basic  infrastructure  facilities  is  available  on UDISE+ portal at <http://udiseplus.gov.in/#/en/page/publications>.

Under Samagra Shiksha, there is a dedicated component of Quality and Innovation with a focus  on  improving  the  learning  levels  of  students,  wherein  funds  are  provided  to  states  for interventions such as Learning Enhancement Programme, Youth and Eco Clubs; Holistic Progress Card; Composite School Grant for providing a conducive learning environment; Libraries; Sports and Physical Education, etc.

Strengthening  of  teacher  capacity  building  and  quality  enhancement  measures  under  the Centrally  Sponsored  Scheme  of  Samagra  Shiksha  is  aligned  with  the  recommendations  of  the National Education Policy (NEP), 2020. ΝΕΡ 2020 recommends that teachers be given continuous opportunities  for  self-improvement  and  to  learn  the  latest  innovations  and  advances  in  their profession. The Samagra Shiksha scheme provides academic and financial support to States/UTs for continuous  professional  development  of  teachers,  institutional  strengthening  and  improvement  of classroom practices.

In-service  teacher  and  teacher  educators  training  is  an  integral  part  of  Samagra  Shiksha scheme. These trainings are conducted by the concerned States and UTs through State Councils of Educational Research and Training (SCERTs) and the District Institutes of Education and Training (DIETs). The details of financial approvals made under the in-service teacher training component of the Quality and Innovation intervention during the last three years are provided at Annexure-II. Initiatives  such  as  National  Initiative  for  School  Heads'  and  Teachers'  Holistic  Advancement (NISHTHA),  Digital Infrastructure for  Knowledge  Sharing  (DIKSHA), Integrated Teacher Education Program (ITEP- Pre-service teacher training) are also being taken for teachers' capacity building and quality enhancement measures aligned with the National Education Policy, 2020.

National  Mission  for  Mentoring  (NMM),  as  envisaged  in  para  15.11  of  NEP  2020, conceptualizes  the  creation  of  a  large  pool  of  outstanding  professionals  willing  to  provide mentoring to school teachers. These potential mentors, regardless of age or position, will contribute towards realizing 21st century developmental goals of our nation. NMM underlines the importance of short and long-term mentoring/professional support. It brings an opportunity to leverage crosslearning  amongst  different  individuals  leading  to  their  continuous  professional  development. Mentors  empower  school  teachers  to  reach  their  full  potential,  improve  their  teaching  practices, knowledge skills and attitude to positively impact student learning outcomes.

National  Professional  Standards  for  Teachers  (NPST),  as  envisaged  in  Para  5.20  of  NEP 2020, focuses to improve the teachers' personal and professional development by providing them an understanding  of  what  is  expected  in  terms  of  their  performance  and  what  needs  to  be  done  to enhance the same.

The Government  of India has taken several measures to strengthen accountability mechanisms for teachers and school administrators in achieving better learning outcomes including Bulandshahr. A key initiative in this regard is the establishment of the National Assessment Centre, PARAKH, which serves as a central body for setting standards, conducting large-scale assessments, and  providing  evidence-based  policy  recommendations  to  improve  the  quality  of  education. PARAKH  plays  a  crucial  role  in  developing  standardized  assessment  frameworks,  ensuring consistency  in  evaluation  across  different  education  boards,  and  promoting  competency-based assessments aligned with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. Additionally, the introduction of the Holistic Progress Card (HPC) has transformed student assessment by providing a 360-degree evaluation of learners, focusing on cognitive, socio-emotional, and skill-based development rather than just academic performance.

To improve the Learning Outcomes at Foundational Stage (3 years of Balvatika and Grades 1 & 2), the National Curricular Framework for Foundational Stage (NCF-FS) was released on 20th October,  2022  providing  a  structure  for  the  syllabus,  Training  of  Teachers,  Learning  Teaching Material (LTM), etc. Accordingly, Jaadui Pitara for Balvatika (3 years of pre-school) and Books for Grades 1 & 2 have been provided by NCERT for use by States/UTs.

To improve learning outcomes among primary school students, a National Mission called 'National  Initiative  for  Proficiency  in  Reading  with  Understanding  and  Numeracy  (NIPUN Bharat)'  has  been  launched  on  5 th July,  2021  to  ensure  that  every  child  in  the  country  attains foundational literacy and numeracy by the end of Grade 2. Keeping holistic development in mind, a 3  months  play  based  'School  Preparation  Module  and  Guidelines'  for  Grade  I  named  'Vidya Pravesh' was launched on 29th July, 2021.

PARAKH Rashtriya Sarvekshan (PRS) 2024 (formerly National Achievement Survey) was conducted  by  the  National  Assessment  Centre-PARAKH,  NCERT  under  the  aegis  of  the Department  of  School  Education  &  Literacy,  Ministry  of  Education  to  measure  the  baseline performance  under  the  National  Education  Policy  (NEP)  2020  in  development  of  competencies among students at the end of the Foundational, Preparatory and Middle Stages (Grades 3, 6 and 9 respectively) of schooling.

At the foundational level (assessed in Grade 3), the scores for Language and Mathematics from  PARAKH  Rashtriya  Sarvekshan  (PRS)  2024  highlight  significant  improvement  when compared to National Achievement Survey (NAS) 2021, thereby, indicating early gains from the NIPUN Bharat Mission launched under the flagship Samagra Shiksha scheme in 2021.

National,  State  and  District  level  report  cards  for  PARAKH  Rashtriya  Sarvekshan  2024 providing insights on variation in learning outcomes, achievement of stage-specific competencies and suggested interventions to improve low-performing competencies, are available at https://dashboard.parakh.ncert.gov.in/en, a dedicated dashboard designed to disseminate the findings of the assessment.

State-wise number of ICT Labs established and Smart Classroom developed in schools since inception is attached at Annexure-IV.

Amongst the said districts 2 residential schools/Hostels in the district of Shimla have been approved under Netaji Subhas Residential School doing 2025-26.

Under  Kasturba  Gandhi  Balika  Vidyalaya  (KGBVs),  which  are  residential  schools  from class VI to XII for girls belonging to Socio-Economically Disadvantaged Groups (SEDGs) such as SC,  ST,  OBC  and  others;  2  KGBVs  in  Bharatpur  District,  11  in  Bulandshahr  and  7  in Siddharthnagar have been upgraded in last 3 years amongst the said districts.

In  convergence  with  Ministry  of  Tribal  Affairs,  Government  of  India,  under  Dharti  Aaba Janjatiya  Gram  Utkarsh  Abhiyan  (DAJGUA)  Program  9  hostels  of  100  capacity  each  has  been sanctioned  to  Nabrangpur  Lok  Sabha  Constituency  which  comprises  3  districts:  Nabrangpur  (4), Malkangiri (3) and Koraput (2), with total NR cost of Rs. 3433.05 Lakh. In Malkangiri District- 16 hostels of total 1300 capacity (100 bedded) have been sanctioned under another scheme of MoTA named Pradhan Mantri Janjati Adivasi Nyaya Maha Abhiyan (PM JANMAN) with the total NR cost Rs. 4130 Lakhs.

State-wise number of Hostels approved under PM JANMAN is attached at Annexure-V and Hostls approved under DAJGUA programs during last 3 years (2023-24 to 2025-26) are attached at Annexure-V(A) .

(d) & (e): Under Samagra Shiksha preference is given under the scheme to Educationally Backward Blocks (EBBs), LWEs,  Border  areas  and aspirational districts, etc. Accordingly, different interventions  are  approved  on  a  priority  basis  in  these  districts  to  improve  access  and  quality  of education.  Annual  work  Plan  and  Budget  (AWP&B) is  prepared  by  the  State/UT  based  on  their requirements and priorities at the beginning of every year. The proposal of State/UT having various activities/components are appraised and approved by Project Approval Board (PAB) in consultation with the State as per the programmatic & financial norms of the scheme.

Release of Central share of funds is done in instalments depending on the financial progress of utilization of funds released earlier, incentivising the State/UTs to utilize more funds.

The cost of construction works in Hilly and Remote region is comparatively higher due to difficult  terrain,  limited  availability  of  construction  materials,  higher  transportation  cost,  and logistical  challenges.  As per Samagra Shiksha norms, while calculating unit cost of activities the rates  are  taken  as  per  specified  standards  and  State  Schedule  of  Rates  (SSOR)  or  CPWD  Rates, whichever is lower, thus incorporating the variation of cost.

Support  is  also  provided  under  Samagra  Shiksha  for  reaching  out  to  children  in  sparsely populated, or hilly and remote regions, including densely forested areas with difficult geographical terrain and border areas, through the following specific provisions:

- Favourable Funding Pattern: While the standard Centre-State funding ratio is 60:40, it is relaxed to 90:10 for the 8 North-Eastern States and 3 Himalayan States (Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, and Jammu & Kashmir), ensuring the central government bears the bulk of the financial burden.
- Residential  schools/Hostel: In  areas  where  building  a  school  is  unviable  due  to  sparse population  or  extreme  terrain,  the  scheme  provides  for  Netaji  Subhash  Chandra  Bose Avasiya Vidyalayas i.e., Residential Schools/Hostels. In addition, expanded hostel facilities for  tribal  students  are  provided  under the umbrella of the Samagra Shiksha under the PM JANMAN and DAJGUA scheme.
- Transport and Escort Facility: For children in remote habitations, the scheme provides a transport allowance of up to ₹6,000 per child per annum up to grade 10 to ensure they can reach schools safely.
- Residential  Quarters  for  Teachers: To  ensure  teacher  retention  in  remote  and  difficult areas, the scheme provides financial support for the construction of staff quarters.
