Imphal, February 03 2015:
Pledging that sincere efforts would be put in to include Andro Assembly Constituency, Imphal East in the educational map of the country and bring laurels to the State through excellence in education, MLA of the constituency Thounaojam Shyamkumar asserted that he has been working hard to develop the constituency which is lagging behind as compared to others in many aspects.
The MLA was speaking to media persons while inspecting the ongoing construction of Kasturva Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya (KGBV) under Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) on Tuesday.
Shyamkumar said that a target has been set to complete the construction of the school which is only for girls within the month of March and assured that no stone will be left unturned to ensure that the school becomes the best amongst the KGBV schools in India.
Students of the school will be taught with extracurricular activities.
They will also be made to play various games of sports including football, boxing, weightlifting, badminton, table tennis etc.
This is to ensure that all of them excel in every field apart from education.
Amount of money that will be required in arranging all the facilities will be borne from the Local MLA Area Development Fund itself, he said.
Stating that most of students of the school who are going to be admitted will be orphans and from BPL and poor families, Shyamkumar reminded that he had already urged Education Minister to upgrade the school up to Class X standard from Class VIII .
The MLA further added that compound wall, playground and extra classrooms of the school are being constructed with assistance from residents of Andro Constituency.
