Assam Education Minister Ranoj Pegu on July 23 chaired a review meeting at Janata Bhawan with the Adarsha Vidyalaya Sangathan (AVS), which manages the state’s CBSE-affiliated English-medium Adarsha Vidyalayas.
During the meeting, the progress of civil works in the 57 operational Adarsha Vidyalayas, being executed by the Public Works Department (Buildings), was reviewed.
Pegu said the state government is committed to strengthening the flagship school network by commissioning more Adarsha Vidyalayas across Assam and introducing Senior Secondary sections in 13 existing schools.
The minister also noted that the Adarsha Vidyalayas have continued to deliver strong academic results, recording around a 90 per cent pass percentage in the HSLC examination.
“This reflects the dedication of our teachers, students, school managements and all stakeholders,” Pegu said, while emphasising the government’s focus on improving educational infrastructure and expanding quality English-medium education in the state.
