Nangal, April 23 ()
#Punjab Sikhya Kranti The changing face of Punjab’s government schools is a testament to the commitment of the Punjab government under the leadership of Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann. By providing basic infrastructure across thousands of schools in the state, the government has ensured a favorable learning environment for students.
Educational reforms have brought model and convent-like facilities to government schools, bringing joy and pride to students, parents, and teachers. Many schools have already undergone significant transformations. The construction of boundary walls around each school has created a secure atmosphere. Facilities such as integrated science labs, modern classrooms, sports grounds, well-furnished rooms, and furniture are now available in all government schools in Punjab.
Senior secondary schools are also being equipped with transport facilities, Wi-Fi, campus managers, and security guards, offering students amenities comparable to those found in model schools.
Development projects worth crores of rupees are being inaugurated daily across the state. Punjab Education Minister Harjot Singh Bains has been continuously dedicating these completed development projects to the public, offering valuable facilities to students. He is especially focused on improving the government schools in villages within his constituency.
A landmark initiative in this direction is the School of Eminence in the holy city of Kiratpur Sahib, built at a cost of 12 crore with ultra-modern amenities.
