2.1.6.5. WATER SUPPLY

Government instructions (2008) stipulated that all residual schools should be

provided with adequate water supply facilities.
It was seen in audit that Overhead tanks were not available in 25 out of 34
schools to ensure running water supply to toilets and other purposes.

In test checked APRS (Girls), Venkatagiri, it was observed that 'overhead tank'
was constructed during 2008-09 at a cost of Rs. 9.50 lakh. However, it was not put to
use for want of new bore well which would cost another Rs.1.50 lakh. Thus, due to the
failure in providing a bore well, the tank built at a cost of Rs. 9.50 lakh remained
unutilized.

EXPLANATORY NOTES: -

The Government in G.O. Rt. No. 281, Dt. 28-11-2016, School Education, (Trg.)
Dept. issued sanction orders for an amount of Rs. 25.04 Crores for maintenance/repairs
to the existing Toilet Block and providing Toilet Blocks and improving the water supply

sanction orders for the proposed works were issued by the Society. The works have
been entrusted to the Executive Engineer, SSA of the concerned District.

Further, it is submitted that at APRS (Girls), Venkatagiri a separate bore well was
dug and provided water supply to the Overhead tanks and is put in use.

Government stipulated that all residential schools should be provided with

adequate toilets and bathrooms, etc. for the students.
As per the Engineering wing of APREIS, each residential school is required to
be provided with 40 Toilets and bathrooms. Audit scrutiny/ physical verification showed
the following: -

i) In 32 of 34 residential schools, there was a shortage of 638 toilets and bathrooms

(47 percent) against the requirement of 1,360 toilets and bathrooms.

In 10 out 34 schools the shortfall was more than 20 (29 per cent) against 40 toilets
and bathrooms required. The shortfall was particularly high in five 9 residential schools,
where only less than five toilets were provided against the requirement of 40.

Out of total required 2880 Toilets & Bathrooms 1160 Toilets & Bathrooms are
proposed to construct for the year 2017-18 from the sanctioned funds by the Government
under various schemes.

2.1.6.6. Staff Quarters.

In the Residential school pattern, the children were to be supervised round the clock
by the teachers where they were treated as loco parents of the students. Hence, staff
quarters are very much essential. Government stipulated that all residential schools should
have adequate staff quarters for Principal, Vice-Principal, teaching and non-teaching
staff.

As per the formulation of Engineering wing of APREIS, each residential school is

required to be provided with a Principal's quarter along with 24 teaching and 16 non-
teaching staff quarters. Audit scrutiny showed that quarters were not at all provided to
Principals in 14 out of 34 residential schools. In four out of 20 schools where available
they were in dilapidated condition. The Principals of these schools were residing away from
the school premises. Further, there was shortage of quarters for teaching and non-teaching
staff in all the 34 schools.

During test check, it was observed in APRS (Girls), Venkatagiri that construction
of 16 staff quarters was taken up in 2006 at an estimated cost of Rs.1.15 crore. However,
construction remained incomplete at basement/ pillars/ slab level and works were
abandoned (January 2008) for want of funds after incurring Rs.33 lakh

2.1.6.8 INFRASTRUCTURE IN RESIDENTIAL DEGREE / JUNIOR COLLEGES.

Nine out of 11 Residential colleges (Degree College: 1, Junior Colleges: 10) were
functioning in own buildings. The remaining two 12 colleges were running in rented
buildings. Audit scrutiny of data/ details furnished by APREIS and physical verification
of five out of 11 colleges showed that adequate infrastructure facilities were not provided
in the colleges. There was shortage of classrooms (91 against 203 required), dormitories
(39 against 58 required), toilets & bathrooms (224 against 360 required).

In test-checked APRJC (Boys), Gyarampalli, nine staff quarters were constructed

(December 2008) at a cost Rs.25 lakh. However, only four out of the nine were
completed fully and occupied by staff. The remaining five quarters which remained
incomplete without amenities like toilets, water facility etc were being used as
dormitories as there was shortage of dormitories for boarders. Thus, the purpose of
constructions was not achieved and the students were forced to stay in accommodation
without basic amenities.

2.1.6.5. WATER SUPPLY

Government instructions (2008) stipulated that all residual schools should
be provided with adequate water supply facilities.
It was seen in audit that Overhead tanks were not available in 25 out of
34 schools to ensure running water supply to toilets and other purposes.

In test checked APRS (Girls), Venkatagiri, it was observed that 'overhead

tank' was constructed during 2008-09 at a cost of Rs. 9.50 lakh. However, it
was not put to use for want of new bore well which would cost another Rs.1.50
lakh. Thus, due to the failure in providing a bore well, the tank built at a cost of
Rs. 9.50 lakh remained unutilized.

Government stipulated that all residential schools should be provided with
adequate toilets and bathrooms, etc. for the students.
As per the Engineering wing of APREIS, each residential school is
required to be provided with 40 Toilets and bathrooms. Audit scrutiny/ physical
verification showed the following: -

2.1.6.6. Staff Quarters.

In the Residential school pattern, the children were to be supervised round
the clock by the teachers where they were treated as loco parents of the students.
Hence, staff quarters are very much essential. Government stipulated that all
residential schools should have adequate staff quarters for Principal, Vice-
Principal, teaching and non-teaching staff.
As per the formulation of Engineering wing of APREIS, each residential
school is required to be provided with a Principal's quarter along with 24 teaching
and 16 non-teaching staff quarters. Audit scrutiny showed that quarters were not
at all provided to Principals in 14 out of 34 residential schools. In four out of 20
schools where available they were in dilapidated condition. The Principals of these
schools were residing away from the school premises. Further, there was shortage
of quarters for teaching and non-teaching staff in all the 34 schools.

During test check, it was observed in APRS (Girls), Venkatagiri that

construction of 16 staff quarters was taken up in 2006 at an estimated cost of
Rs.1.15 crore. However, construction remained incomplete at basement/ pillars/
slab level and works were abandoned (January 2008) for want of funds after
incurring Rs.33 lakh

2.1.6.8 INFRASTRUCTURE IN RESIDENTIAL DEGREE / JUNIOR COLLEGES.
Nine out of 11 Residential colleges (Degree College: 1, Junior Colleges:
10) were functioning in own buildings. The remaining two 12 colleges were
running in rented buildings. Audit scrutiny of data/ details furnished by APREIS
and physical verification of five out of 11 colleges showed that adequate
infrastructure facilities were not provided in the colleges. There was shortage of
classrooms (91 against 203 required), dormitories (39 against 58 required),
toilets & bathrooms (224 against 360 required).
In test-checked APRJC (Boys), Gyarampalli, nine staff quarters were
constructed (December 2008) at a cost Rs.25 lakh. However, only four out of
the nine were completed fully and occupied by staff. The remaining five quarters
which remained incomplete without amenities like toilets, water facility etc were
being used as dormitories as there was shortage of dormitories for boarders.
Thus, the purpose of constructions was not achieved and the students were forced
to stay in accommodation without basic amenities.
