AGARTALA, Nov 9 (TIWN): Centre is yet to release funds for more Kendriya Vidyalaya and Novodoya Vidyalayas in every district of Tripura. Being the policy of the Central Government to set up at least one Kendriya Vidyalaya and one Novodoya Vidyalaya to each District of the country has been found laudable, which has created opportunity for a bunch of students from all strata to persue their studies under CBSE Course and in the midst of cosmopolitan atmosphere. Apart from the above this arrangement has immensely helped the children of the Central Government employees from being ejected from their courses, while their parents are transferred to other region.

In Tripura State, till today there are only 6(six) Kendriya Vidyalayas at Agartala and ONGC Colony in West Tripura, at  Ambassa in Dhalai District , at Kailashahar in Unakoti District,  at Panisagar in North Tripura District and Bogafa in South Tripura District.  Out of 8(eight) Districts in Tripura, 3(three) Districts i.e.; Khowai District, Sepoyjola District and Gomati District are yet to be covered under Kendriya Vidyalaya scheme.

 With regard to Novodaya Vidyalayas, till today 3(three) schools has only been established in Tripura State at Ramchandra Ghat in Khowai District, at 82 Miles in Dhalai District and at Udaipur in Gomati District. The residual 5(five) Districts i.e.; South Tripura, West Tripura, Sepoyjola, Unakoti and North Tripura are yet to be covered under this scheme.

Ministry of Human Resource Development Development  also assured to consider to set up 3(three) more Kendriya Vidyalaya and 5(five) more Novodoya Vidyalaya on priority to the uncovered Districts that the children of far flung areas of Tripura are benefitted for their studies with the facilities of national standard at their door step at affordable cost. This is very much important for a State like Tripura, located at NE region.

It is mentionable that setting up Kendriya Vidyalaya is depending on officials of Head Office of KV at Shilong. On the other hand no response received from the Head Office of KV after so many months. Although the demand of setting KV at Belonia became stronger since 2013. Now question raised among common people whether KV would be set up at Belonia. Sources said that local people demanded more active role of administration to set up the Central School.
