Maharashtra to Provide Free Government Land for New Kendriya Vidyalayas Maharashtra has announced a policy to allocate government land free of charge to the Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan (KVS) for establishing new schools across the state. The decision, formalized through a resolution issued by the state’s revenue and forest department on Wednesday, follows a cabinet directive from April. The policy applies to all Kendriya Vidyalayas that have already received prior approval from KVS, New Delhi. This initiative comes after the Union cabinet approved the creation of 85 new Kendriya Vidyalayas nationwide, including several planned locations in Maharashtra. KVS had previously requested the state government to transfer identified government land in Akola and Mouze Nachane, located in Ratnagiri district, either free of charge or at a nominal rent. The resolution authorizes the transfer of 2.50 hectares of government land in Ratnagiri to KVS for constructing a new Kendriya Vidyalaya. However, details regarding land allocation in Akola remain pending. The state has emphasized that the land will be provided entirely free of charge to KVS, though the allocated land remains government property and cannot be sold or transferred by KVS. The policy outlines specific conditions for land use, stating that the allocated land can only be utilized for the designated purpose of operating a Kendriya Vidyalaya. Additionally, the state has established a general framework for future land allocations. Wherever KVS requests government land for a school that has received prior approval, and the identified government land is available without encumbrances, it will be transferred to KVS under the same conditions. This includes possession rights, exemption from occupancy premium, and freedom from revenue charges.#maharashtra #akola #kendriya_vidyalaya_sangathan #kvs #ratnagiri

CBSE CTET Result 2026 Date: Results To Be Released Anytime Soon On ctet.nic.in The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is set to release the CTET 2026 results for over 25 lakh candidates who appeared for the Central Teacher Eligibility Test. The results will be made available on the official website, ctet.nic.in, following the review of objections raised against the answer key. This marks a crucial step for aspiring teachers aiming to secure positions in government schools such as Kendriya Vidyalayas (KVS) and Navodaya Vidyalayas (NVS). The qualifying criteria for the CTET 2026 exam have been specified, with general category candidates required to score at least 60% (90 marks out of 150), while reserved category candidates (OBC/SC/ST) are eligible for a relaxation, needing a minimum of 55% (82 marks). These cut-offs are distinct for both CTET papers, reflecting the board’s effort to ensure fair evaluation. It is important to note that the CTET certificate, now valid for life, serves as an eligibility proof for government teacher recruitment but does not guarantee employment. The release of results is anticipated within four to six weeks of the exam, likely in late March or early April 2026. However, the exact date remains unconfirmed. Candidates are advised to monitor the official website for updates. To check their scores, applicants must visit ctet.nic.in, navigate to the CTET Result 2026 link, enter their roll number, and download the scorecard for future reference. Once results are announced, successful candidates can download their marksheet and eligibility certificate from DigiLocker (digilocker.gov.in). This digitally signed document is recognized across all educational institutions.#cbse #ctet_2026 #digilocker #kvs #nvs
