(b) to (d): The measures taken by the Government for the welfare and development of tribal communities in the following schemes is as below:

(i)  Eklavya  Model Residential Schools (EMRS): Eklavya Model Residential Schools (EMRSs) have been established with the objective of providing quality education to tribal students from Class VI to XII in a residential set-up. These schools focus on providing quality education at the upper primary and secondary levels.

The setup of EMRS required provision of 15 acres of land free from all encumbrances to be provided by the state Government for creating a conducive environment for imparting quality  education  and  provisioning  of  infrastructure  towards  sports  &  extra-curricular activities.  Facilities  in  the  school  include  state-of-the-art  classrooms;  fully  equipped science labs, computer labs, math's lab; library; administrative facilities for Principal and Staff; toilet and drinking water facility; sports and games facilities (indoor and outdoor). Other facilities include Hostels for boys and girls, kitchen & dining hall and residential quarters for teaching and non-teaching staff, etc. are also provided.  The criteria of 15 acre have however been relaxed on case-to-case basis subsequently.

As on 31.01.2026, the construction of 400 buildings has been completed, 323 are under construction (266 work in progress and 57 under pre-construction stage).

To ensure their equitable access to quality education and holistic development for tribal students following facilities are also being provided in these schools: -

7. NESTS has also recruited teaching and non-teaching staff for EMRSs through the centralized all India recruitment exam ESSE - 2023. Since, these staff are selected through open examination, best quality teachers have been selected to teach in these schools. A total of 7083 teaching staff has been selected through ESSE-2023. In addition to the direct recruitment, NESTS also has advised State Governments to depute  staff  on  deputation.  Further,  State  EMRS  Societies  are  engaging  guest teachers  against  vacancies,  and  non-teaching  staff  on  outsourcing  basis/local engagement,  so  that  academic  activities  are  not  hampered.  Further,  recruitment under ESSE-2025 is under process.

Further, to ensure good academic performance, the following measures have been taken:

-  Student-Centric  Academic  Support: Bridge  courses,  remedial  classes,  and academic mentoring are provided to support students with learning gaps and ensure smooth transition across grades.
-  Focus  on  Holistic  Development: EMRSs  emphasize  the  integration  of  cocurricular activities, sports, and life skills education to foster all-round development and keep students engaged.
-  Career  Guidance  and  Competitive  Exam  Preparation: Career  counselling sessions  are  conducted  to  provide  clarity  on  higher  education  and  career  paths. Special coaching programs like NEET/JEE preparation in partnership with reputed institutions are being provided to Class XI & XII students.
