KATRA: As part of its ongoing Social Support Initiative, the Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Shrine Board (SMVDSB) today conducted a comprehensive review of restoration works at several Government Schools in Reasi and Udhampur district that were severely impacted by recent natural calamities. These efforts were undertaken in accordance with the directions of the Board’s Chairman, Hon’ble Lieutenant Governor, J&K UT, Shri Manoj Sinha, reaffirming the Board’s steadfast commitment to repair and renovate government schools in the region and strengthen the educational infrastructure.
The schools under restoration include Government High School at Sirla Bhaga; Government Middle Schools at Chack Bhagtha, Parthal, Manoon, and Kun Kanyala; and Government Primary Schools at Hansali, Kalara Chanjute, Upper Sirla, Geeta Nagar, Purana Daroor, and Banganga in Reasi district. Additionally, restoration works are also underway at Government Primary School, Dhanno in Udhampur district. These institutions suffered extensive damage to classrooms, boundary walls and sanitation facilities due to heavy rains and subsequent landslides.
A team, as per the directions of Shri Sachin Kumar Vaishya, Chief Executive Officer, SMVDSB, conducted an on-site assessment of the restoration works and instructions were issued to the concerned quarters to ensure prompt deployment of adequate manpower, machinery and requisite materials at the identified restoration sites to expedite the execution of works.
It was further exhorted to furnish progress reports at regular intervals to facilitate close monitoring and ensure accountability so that all restoration works are completed within the stipulated timeframe, in alignment with the Board’s commitment to educational welfare. The visiting team also interacted with school staff and local stakeholders to ensure that the restoration efforts are responsive to the educational and safety needs of the students.
