Currently, JNVs are present in only 15 of the state’s 28 districts, leaving 13 districts without these residential schools. Ramesh emphasized that expanding the JNV network would provide quality education to talented students from rural and economically disadvantaged backgrounds. He noted that the Union Cabinet had previously approved 28 new JNVs nationwide, with an estimated cost of ₹2,359.82 crore over five years, and calculated that ₹1,096 crore would be needed for the 13 JNVs in Andhra Pradesh. Additionally, Ramesh requested funding for two new AIIMS, highlighting their potential to enhance healthcare access and medical education in underserved regions of the state.
