Assam is set to get five new Sainik Schools on a public-private-partnership (PPP) mode, state education minister Ranoj Pegu said on Thursday. He said the land allotment process in five locations in the state, Silchar, Kokrajhar, Golaghat, Karbi Anglong and Dhemaji, has been completed. "There are 33 Sainik Schools in the country. After the approval of the Centre to set up more schools on a PPP mode, the state government has decided to establish five additional Sainik Schools. We will finalise the modalities with the Union defence ministry soon," Pegu said. Assam currently has only one Sainik School, which was set up in Goalpara in 1964.from
