Today, we have smart classrooms, well-developed e-libraries, state-of-the-art laboratories, advanced sports infrastructure and child-friendly campuses in government schools. It has resulted in increased enrolment in government and government aided schools”.

He said that the State Government has instituted the CM’s Award for Education, a scheme worth more than Rs 125 Crore to make the educational ecosystem aspirational by incorporating recognition and reward for all stakeholders.

“We invested in education. We took initiatives to upscale our students with 21st century skills to support the industries with highly qualified and skilled human resources. Our priority is to make Odisha a global preference for aspiring young minds”, he said.

“We ensure Education for All. This is a special day for all of us and I can proudly affirm ‘Innovation in education is our USP”, the CM noted.
