Amaravati, Oct 1

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu has thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi for four new Kendriya Vidyalayas approved for the state.

The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs, chaired by Prime Minister Modi, on Wednesday approved the opening of 57 new Kendriya Vidyalayas (KVs) under the Civil sector across the country.

Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu posted on X that Andhra Pradesh will get four new Kendriya Vidyalayas.

The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs has approved the establishment of four new Kendriya Vidyalayas (KVS) in Andhra Pradesh: Mangasamudram (Chittoor), Bairuganipalle (Kuppam Mandal, Chittoor), Palasa (Srikakulam) and Sakhamuru (Amaravati).

Meanwhile, Union Minister for Coal and Mines G. Kishan Reddy has also thanked Prime Minister Modi and Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan for approving four KVs for Telangana.

He posted that the Government of India has been continuously supporting the development of education in Telangana for the past 11 years.

“Today, 4 more Kendriya Vidyalayas have been sanctioned in addition to the existing 35, to provide quality primary and secondary education in remote areas,” he wrote.

The four new KVs will be established in Bhadradri Kothagudem district headquarters, Mulugu district headquarters, Jagityala district (Jagityala Rural Mandal-Chelgal) and Wanaparthi district (Nagavaram Sivar).

Kishan Reddy mentioned that Bhadradri Kothagudem and Mulugu districts have been affected by decades of left-wing extremism. The decision to expand KVs to these districts will give the children here a crop of new opportunities to grow and scale new heights.

The Union Minister stated that in addition to this, the Central Government has so far allocated Rs 400 crore for 800+ PM-SHRI Schools over 2 years (highest allocation across India), Rs 2,000 crore under Samagra Shiksha Abhiyan and approximately Rs 1,000 crore to Sammakka Sarakka Central Tribal University in Mulugu.

Union Minister of State for Home Affairs Bandi Sanjay also thanked the Prime Minister, Education Minister and Union Cabinet for approving four KVs to Telangana. He called it a big boost for education in Telangana.

With 35 existing KVs, these new schools will take quality education to remote corners of the state.

Finally some good news for education sector! But why only 4 for AP when other states got more? Our state needs more quality schools, especially in rural areas. Hope state government also focuses on improving existing government schools.

Excellent initiative! Expanding KVs to Naxal-affected areas in Telangana is a smart move. Education is the best weapon against extremism. These schools will bring hope to children in conflict zones. 👍

Good step but implementation matters most. Hope these schools get proper infrastructure, qualified teachers, and adequate funding. Too often new schools open but struggle with basic facilities.

As someone from Chittoor district, I'm thrilled about the new KV in Mangasamudram! Our children won't have to travel 50km for quality education anymore. Thank you central and state governments! ❤️

The ₹400 crore allocation for PM-SHRI schools shows serious commitment to education. Combined with new KVs, this could really improve educational outcomes in both Telugu states. Hope the funds are used effectively.
