Reviewing the progress of Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) and Rashtriya Madh yamik Shiksha Abhiyan (RMSA), the Chief Minister emphasised the need for implementing these flagship programmes with a missionary zeal and with commitment. He said these programmes are aimed at balanced growth and development of elementary and higher education in the state. |
