Bhubaneswar, Jan 10: Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik inaugurated 389 schools in five districts under the state government's transformational program. These schools are located in Ganjam, Jharsuguda, Jagatsinghpur, Kendrapada, and Bargarh districts. The schools across the state are being transformed under the 5T initiative.

The 5T Initiative
The 5T framework, widely hailed as a groundbreaking initiative in good governance, sets a new benchmark in citizen delivery. 5Ts refer to teamwork, technology, transparency, and time leading to transformation.
Schools Transformed in Different Districts
The highest 149 schools have been transformed in Patnaik's home district Ganjam, 112 in Kendrapara, 57 in Jagatsinghpur, and 11 in Jharsuguda district. A total of 1,794 schools across the state will be covered in the fourth phase of the transformational program.
Earlier Phases of Transformation
In the earlier three phases, as many as 6,883 schools have been transformed with better buildings, classrooms, computers, playgrounds, and libraries.
Importance of School Transformation
Noting that the state government has taken up the transformation of schools, colleges, tourist places, temples, mutts, and hospitals as part of its efforts to build a strong Odisha, Patnaik said, "Schools shape the future of any race. Education shows the way for society to develop and progress. Hence, the government attaches much importance to school transformation."
Reservation for State-Run School Students
He also said his government has made provision for 15 percent reservation for the state-run school students in medical and engineering institutions.
