As per an official statement, the state government plans to open at least one such Hindi medium school in each district similar to the Swami Atmanand Government English Medium Schools (SAGES).

The decision was taken in view of the demand raised by students of Hindi medium schools, parents and public representatives, it stated.

The state government had launched the SAGES scheme in November 2020, under which government Hindi medium schools were renovated and modernised into English medium schools.
