SC/ST schools in Bihar to get computers

Patna, Apr 9 (PTI) The Bihar government has decided to install
computers and arrange audio-visual study materials for teaching at 51
residential schools for scheduled castes and scheduled tribes.

Out of the 81 residential schools, 51 where students of standard I to
standard X were taught, would have the Computer aided Learning (CAL)
system, SC/ST Welfare Minister Jitan Ram Manjhi said after launching
the system here today.

The software for the new study and teaching methods had been developed
by IIT, Mumbai, he said.

Speaking on the occasion, Deputy Chief Minister S K Modi said earlier
the budget for the SC/ST welfare department was as low as Rs 40 crore
but now the state government has increased it to Rs 361 crore during
2010-11.

Under the plan size of Rs 24,000 crore fixed in Bihar for 2011-12,
Modi said the state government had allocated Rs 4,200 crore for the
welfare schemes for the SC and ST people.
