₹250-crore action plan submitted to Karnataka Government to upgrade BBMP-run educational institutions

The Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) has submitted a ₹250-crore action plan to the State Government to upgrade the 63 educational institutions that it runs in the city. The action plan includes construction of additional classrooms and improving infrastructure facilities.

This comes a month after the Urban Development Department wrote to the BBMP’s Chief Commissioner directing the official to submit an action plan for the development of 47 primary and high schools for funds under the Amrut Nagarotthana scheme. Funds amounting to ₹6,000 crore have been earmarked for various development projects under this scheme.

Confirming the development, BBMP’s Assistant Commissoner (Education) Umesh B.S. told The Hindu that the action plan was submitted to the Government around a week ago.
