He gave an account onthe progress achieved on education and infrastructure. Regarding theschools in Delhi he mentioned that 60% of the schools are functioningin two shifts as land is scarce in Delhi and the first shift is for boys andthe second for girls. The rooms constructed for the schools are utilizedby the two shifts. Depending on the enrollment in two shifts therequirement is worked out based on the shift which is having moreenrollments. The additional rooms available are utilized by both theshifts for computer room, staff room, HM room, arts, science room etc.Sometimes some of these rooms are kept by each shift. Accordinglythey have projected the requirement as 2495 rooms. Out of the above889 rooms are to be constructed by the Directorate of Education, 803rooms by Municipal Corporation of Delhi and 803 rooms through SSA.Since the MCD has been trifurcated recently the progress has beenslowed down. Regarding the progress he mentioned that spill overworks are in progress and the new works (300) not started as thesanction of the works were delayed. With the requirement projectedthe State would be in a position to cover the gaps.15 pucca buildings have been sanctioned.

To a question on the unit cost of the toilet, raised by, Shri.

He mentioned that maintenance of toilet is an area ofconcern and this will be slowly rectified. Shri. Parag Ganesh Mendke,WASH Consultant, SSA, MP mentioned that the unit cost of toiletsvaries in TSC and SSA. In SSA the rates are better as they are preparedbased on local schedule of rate where as in TSC fixed rate is approvedfor all the areas. In case of TSC toilets these are implemented by theGPs and SSA toilets are constructed by SMCs. Since the TSC cost islower the toilets constructed are not good and in many occasions theseare not encouraged and not taken up by them and the progress is slow.He suggested that the works should be taken up by SMCs instead ofGPs.Regarding the maintenance of toilets, Shri.
