ANSWER
MINISTER OF STATE (SHRI SANJAY SETH) IN THE MINISTRY OF DEFENCE
(a) to (e): All 33 Sainik Schools established under the erstwhile pattern in the country are co-educational. A total of 1541 girls are studying in these 33 Schools as on date. Establishment of an all-girls Sainik School under the erstwhile pattern is not under consideration of the Government.
As regards setting up of new Sainik Schools in partnership mode with NGOs/Trusts/Private/Government Schools, there is no restriction for establishing an all-girls Sainik School. In this regard, one school i.e. Samvid Gurukulam Senior Secondary School, Mathura, in the State of Uttar Pradesh has been approved as an all-girls Sainik School. The expenditure towards setting up of new Sainik School under partnership mode is required to be borne by the entity/agency concerned to whom approval has been accorded for setting up of the School.
