Nod For Rs 7,289 Cr Scheme

In the convened meeting, the Cabinet also passed a nod to the 'Mana Vooru Mana Badi' (Our Village-Our School) scheme at ₹ 7289 crore for better infrastructure facilities and quality education in the government schools, The Indian Express reported.

In the same direction, the government schools had already decided upon an action plan for training their teachers to impart English education to their students at the primary level.
