The other five KVs in Ganjam district are at Berhampur, Gopalpur, Bhanjanagar, Aska and Digapahandi.
The KV for Hinjili was sanctioned on March 4, 2014. The delay in transfer of land to the KVS according to the new guideline of the organisation hindered its functioning, offcials said.
The school building and staff quarters will be built on 8 acres leased out to KVs at Hinjili and Ankorada Mouza. The KVS had earlier rejected three sites identified by the district administration, said Additional District Magistrate (revenue) Sitanshu Rout.
The KVs at Aska, Bhanjanagar and Digapahandi started functioning in 2010 from temporary accommodations. The administration gave 8.015 acres at Magura Mouza near Aska for KV Aska while land for the other two KVs had been identified, Rout said. These would be finalised after the official team from KVS gave its nod, he added.
