NCC Opening Of NVS The original objective of providing one Navodaya
Vidyalaya in each district, has been actively pursued. 450 Vidyalayas are sanctioned at
present in 33 states and UT's including one State Level JNV sanctioned at Sirsa
(Haryana). 10 new JNVs have been sanctioned in the year
2001-2002.
It is proposed to open 33 new JNVs during the rest of 9th Plan period, bringing the total coverage
to 482 districts.. The opening of a Navodaya Vidyalaya is based on the
proposal from the concerned State/UT Governments offering 30 acres of suitable land free
of cost, sufficient temporary building and other infrastructure free of rent or on
permanent basis. The coverage of Navodaya Vidyalaya in educationally
backward districts has been considerably high.Out of the States with literacy rate below
50%, 100% coverage has been made in Orissa, Jammu & Kashmir, Karnataka, Manipur, Dadra
& Nagar Haveli, Madhya Pradesh, Meghalaya and Rajastan with the reference to the
number of districts existing at the commencement of VIIIth plan. STATEWISE DETAILS OF JNVs
