Further, speaking at the occasion, the chief minister said that the students of Jharkhand are not behind in any field but there is a need to connect them to resources. “Our government has resolved to provide quality education to the students studying in government schools in the state. The children of Jharkhand will shine in education along with sports,” he said.
Briefing more about the execution of upgrading schools, the CM said, “In the first phase, education is being imparted on the pattern of CBSE in 80 schools of excellence.
