Odisha CM lays foundation stone 'Adarsh' School worth 100 crore
According to the reports, the minister on the occasion of Teacher’s Day said, Odisha will get the proposed school built over 25 acre of land at Andharua, on the outskirt of the state capital, and the meritorious students from rural areas will get an opportunity to get admission in the institute.
Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik on September 5, 2021, laid the foundation stone of a Rs 100-crore Odisha Adarsh Vidyalaya. Calling the step a milestone in the ongoing school transformation process in the state, the minister gave a total of 443 appointment letters to teachers for several state-run schools. According to the reports, the minister on the occasion of Teacher’s Day said, Odisha will get the proposed school built over 25 acre of land at Andharua, on the outskirt of the state capital, and the meritorious students from rural areas will get an opportunity to get admission in the institute. The institute will admit around 1,000 pupils in Class 11 and Class 12. "This will be a milestone in the ongoing school transformation process in the state, and the Adarsh Vidyalaya will provide quality education to the good students of rural areas," he said.
Odisha CM also paid tribute to Dr Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, former President of the country, on the occasion of Teachers' Day and also congratulated educators who won the National Teachers' Award 2021. Dr Radhakrishnan's birth anniversary on September 5 is celebrated as Teachers' Day every year.
Talking about the government’s vision to impart quality education in the state to all meritorious children, CM Patnaik said that the idea about the Adarsh Vidyalaya came considering the unavailability of education facilities and quality educational institutes in rural areas. The state government is providing English medium teaching in secondary and higher secondary Adarsh Vidyalayas and talented students from rural and semi-urban areas are benefiting from these institutes, he said.
