ANSWER
MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF EDUCATION
(SHRI JAYANT CHAUDHARY)
(a) At present, 78 Kendriya Vidyalayas (KVs) and 35 Navodaya Vidyalayas (NVs)
are functional in the State of Rajasthan. Districts-wise details of KVs and NVs are at
Annexure-I and Annexure-II respectively.
(b) to (e) Opening of new KVs is a continuous process. KVs are opened primarily to
cater to the educational needs of the wards of transferable Central Government
Employees including Defence & Para-military personnel, Central Autonomous Bodies,
Central Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs) and Central Institute of Higher Learning
(IHL) by providing a common programme of education throughout the country.
Proposals for opening of new KVs may be sponsored by Ministries or Departments of
the Government of India / State Governments / Union Territories (UTs)Administrations, with commitment to provide requisite resources including land and
temporary accommodation for setting up a new KV as per norms. The proposals are
subject to approval of the competent authority as per extant procedures. As per
information received from Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan, no proposal has been
received for opening of a new KV at Salumbar district of Rajasthan.
The Navodaya Vidyalaya Scheme envisages opening of one NV in each rural
district of the country. Opening of new NVs is a continuous process, which depends
on the willingness of the concerned State Government / UT administration to make
available requisite suitable land, free of cost, for construction of the permanent building
and making available required temporary building, free of rent, to run the Vidyalaya till
the permanent building is constructed. Sanction and opening of new NVs depends on
approval by the competent authority as per extant procedures.
