UP Schools going modern: Gone are the days when the sarkari schools were dimly lit and the teachers were lacking, with no promise of quality or modern education. This reality is now a thing of the past. Under the leadership of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, a remarkable transformation is about to happen.
To kickstart this education makeover, 928 schools from kindergarten to 12th grade will get a shiny upgrade courtesy of the PM SHRI program, investing 404 crore rupees in the first phase.
Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan jointly launched the PM SHRI Schools initiative at Lok Bhawan in a significant stride towards modernizing education in Uttar Pradesh. This initiative marks a crucial move aimed at transforming 928 schools in the state, aligning with Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision to position India as a global leader in education.
