The Ministry of Education has approved an amount of Rs. 149.6 lakhs for setup of 2 kw off grid Solar PV system in 68 schools (@ Rs. 2.2 lakh) with either no electricity or very less electric supply especially in remote / tribal areas during 2020-21. 

The process has been taken up by the State Project Office with the NRSE (Non Renewable Sources of Energy) section of Electricity Department. However, there is no progress till date.

Hence, the State Project Office has sent proposal to convene a high level meeting with the offiicials of APWD and Electgricity Department to take the decision for installation of solar panels in 68 schools.
