Two new schools of eminence almost ready to open in city
Two new schools of eminence (SoEs) are almost ready to open in the city shortly. These will be located in Kidwai Nagar and Miller Ganj and will begin functioning from the new academic session.
The SOEs will be equipped with smart classrooms, modern infrastructure, labs, CCTV surveillance and playgrounds with facilities for various sports.
The SOE in Kidwai Nagar is being built by the Ludhiana Improvement Trust (LIT) while the second school is being constructed by the Public Works Department (PWD).
The mission of the School of Eminence programme aims to bring a revolution in the education sector for holistic development and a bright future for students.
Reviewing the ongoing work at both sites on Saturday, Deputy Commissioner Jitendra Jorwal issued directions to finalise the proposal of revised estimates regarding new works at the earliest.
He emphasised that the Bhagwant Mann-led AAP government was prioritising quality services in the education sector, adding that the SOE was an ambitious programme initiated by the Chief Minister and urged officials to make sincere efforts to complete pending works expeditiously.
He also took detailed review of the ongoing works and provided necessary directions to officials during a meeting this afternoon.
It was informed that the building works in both schools were almost complete, with only a few pending tasks.
ADC (General) Rohit Gupta, Kritika Goyal, IAS (under training) and senior officials from the departments concerned attended the meeting.
