In accordance with the National Policy of
Education (1986) Government of India started Jawahar Navodaya

Union Territories. These are co-educational residential schools
fully financed and administered by Government of India through an
autonomous organization, Navodaya Vidyalaya Samiti.
Admissions in JNVs are made through the JAWAHAR NAVODAYA VIDYALAYA
SELECTION TEST (JNVST) at Class VI. The medium of instruction in
JNVs is the mother tongue or regional language up to Class VIII and
English thereafter for Maths and Science and Hindi for Social
Science. Students of the JNVs appear for X and XII class
examinations of the Central Board of Secondary Education. While education in the schools is free including boarding,
lodging, uniforms and textbooks, a nominal fee of Rs. 600/- per month is collected from the
