MALDA, June 4: The National Human Resources Development department has selected Malda district for setting up Navodaya Vidyalaya. After setting up Navodaya Vidyalaya in Darjeeling, Burdwan, Nadia, Murshidabad and North 24-Parganas, the HRD department has decided to set another residential school in this district. The HRD department has asked the Malda administration to provide a suitable place here to begin a residential school, providing good quality modern education for talented rural students. The district administration has selected two school buildings in Gazole, a tribal dominated belt, so that it can start functioning there. Having failed to get suitable place in the nearby areas of English Bazaar town the district officials lastly selected two government aided schools where it can start functioning at the initial stage. The state government is to offer cost-free land and rent-free temporary buildings for the setting up of a Navodaya Vidyalaya, affiliated to CBSE. A few days ago, an official of NV from Bihar, who has been appointed as principal of Navodaya Vidyalaya, came to visit the selected building before setting up its schools. He reportedly expressed happiness over the selection of a building of a girls’ high school in Gazole but rejected another one selected for a hostel. According to him, the building selected for a hostel is 'dilapidated'. The district officials are in search of an alternative one.
