He said the Lt Governor e-inaugurated 15 important infrastructure projects of the School Education department.

The spokesman said Murmu stressed prioritizing the education infrastructure development even in far-flung areas and called upon the stakeholders to initiate necessary measures to play a decisive role in enhancing the education scenario across Jammu and Kashmir with special focus on increasing the female literacy rate. The Lt Governor called for doubling of efforts for bringing educational reforms in the UT to achieve comprehensive development in the sector.

Murmu underlined the importance of improving the school infrastructure setup by optimum utilization of resources to improve facilities in government-run schools. “School education is central to the overall development of youth and we must realize the fact that when we are nurturing a child in school, we are nurturing the future of the nation,” the L-G added.

Murmu directed for immediate utilization of the newly constructed infrastructure, terming the projects as assets created for rural areas which will certainly contribute towards the quality improvement in education sector.
