These schools will be Government sponsored Bengali medium and will be recognized by the WB Board of Secondary Education and WB Council of Higher Secondary Education. Finance Department have already approved our proposal. Several discussions have been made with the School Education Department of the State Government for academic management of the schools.
School Education Department has already accorded recognition to eight schools. Unfortunately the project could not be implemented during 2007-2008 financial year out of fund proposed to be received from RIDF-XIII due to reluctant attitude of NABARD. However, the entire expenditure will be borne by the State Government. The construction of 5(five) schools are under construction by PW(CB) Dte. An amount of Rs. 30.00 crore has been sanctioned for this project. An amount Rs. 15.00 crore has in this regard been earmarked in the State budget during 2008-2009 for construction of the schools.
