A House panel has expressed strong criticism and disappointment over persistent delays in the construction of Eklavya Model Residential Schools and the disbursal of scholarships. The panel has urged the Centre to find immediate solutions to expedite these crucial initiatives.

The Eklavya Model Residential Schools (EMRS) program in India is changing the lives of tribal students, exemplified by alumni like Rohit Nitwal, by bridging communities and connecting them to global opportunities.

The National Education Society for Tribal Students (NESTS) has signed agreements with the state of Bihar and CoGrad, an EdTech company, to strengthen EMRS (Eklavya Model Residential Schools) through improved governance, infrastructure, and AI-enabled learning solutions.
