Odisha to build a KGBV extension building

Religious: The Odisha government has decided to build the Kastba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya (KGBV) building extension with an investment around RS 15-Crore in Ganjam Regency to accommodate more female students in the hostel, the official source said.
At present 17 kgBV functions in various district blocks and each hostel accommodates 100 female students in grade 6 to 8.

The government has provided sanctions for the construction of the counseling building of each hostel to accommodate 100 female students in grade 9 and 10, said the District Project Coordinator, Samagra Siksha Abhiyan (SSA) Binita Senapati.
The cost of each extension building around RS one crore, he said.
“We have floated tenders for the construction of 15 KGBV extension buildings in the district”, he said.
The new hostel building is expected to be completed in a year.
The construction of new buildings on the KGBV in Rangeilaunda and Khallikote blocks face the current land issue, he said.

“While the design of new buildings in the Khallikote block will be changed to build a new hostel building, we are looking for land in the nearest hostel from KGBV in Block Rangeilaunda”, he said.
The KGBV scheme was launched by the central government with the aim of increasing education among girls, where they provided free housing education.
This scheme is to benefit school girls who lose education and those who are in financial trouble in rural areas and to arrest drop out of school among the girls.
However, with the facilities offered only until class VIII on the KGBV, it was observed many poor family female students drop out of school due to lack of adequate facilities after grade 8.
As a result, it has been decided to introduce the same housing facilities at Hostel KGBV for even girls registered in class 9 and 10 in the closest schools from next year, said Source.
In some other countries, including Uttar Pradesh, the dormitory facilities in the KGBV were expanded to girl students from class 8 to 12, the source added.
