Thrikkakara council passes resolution for setting up KV

Sufficient land available, says standing panel chief

The Thrikkakara Municipal Council has passed a resolution to begin the preliminary work for establishing a Kendriya Vidyalaya within the municipal area after the Union government gave the green signal for a Kendriya Vidyalaya in the State in 2019.

The standing committee for education chairman Noushad Pallechi said on Monday that there was sufficient land available for establishing the Kendriya Vidyalaya within the municipal area. A meeting of the standing committee has decided to pursue the project in earnest, he added.

While the council has begun preliminary action already, the members will meet District Collector Jaffar Malik soon to discuss the issues involved. Mr. Pallechi also said that the Collector had a crucial role in getting the project through. The municipal authorities were ready to allow the Central school to function with admissions to Classes I to IV in the existing municipal school facility. However, the State government decision will be crucial as all the schools have now been taken over by the State government.
