PATNA: Chief minister (CM) Nitish Kumar directed officials on Thursday to expedite the completion of infrastructural development of educational institutions and the recruitment of teachers for vacant positions throughout the state to ensure that students enrolled in schools can pursue their studies properly.
Reviewing the education department’s progress via videoconferencing, the CM noted that a large number of primary and middle schools had been opened in the state since 2006 and their buildings constructed. This created employment opportunities for the unemployed and also promoted local businesses, he explained.
