This is a new scheme announced by the Hon'ble Finance Minister during his Budget announcement,2017-18.
Due to limited high schools in the tea garden areas, a large number of students leave schools midway. In order to facilitate the completion of school education and to reduce the dropout rates, Government has decided to establish 100 new schools in these areas by upgrading existing LP and UP schools to High Schools up to Class-X in a PPP mode with experienced non-government societies.
