He stressed the need to maintain quality in the works taken up under the program. As part of the first phase, over 15,715 educational institutions have been taken up by the government for a complete facelift. CM also stressed on going one step further and ensuring that a proper mechanism is put in place to monitor the maintenance of each of these newly-built schools. Officials also briefed the CM on phase 2 works. In response, the CM asked the officials to not delay any further and initiate phase 2 by February 2021. There are about 16,345 schools under phase 2.
