What does this status mean?
Meaningful delivery has occurred, but the stated commitment is incomplete.
Status describes delivery. Confidence describes how strong the available evidence is.
Original manifesto wording
“We will set up 25 Birsa Munda Gyan Shakti Residential Schools to provide the best residential schooling facilities to 75,000 meritorious students from the tribal community.”

Our Assessment
The state's 2026–27 CET school list names 13 Swami Vivekananda Gyan Shakti Tribal Residential Schools of Excellence, with addresses and intake. Their different name does not negate equivalent residential-school delivery. The 13/25 bar counts listed school options, not completed permanent campuses; actual enrolment against 75,000 remains unverified.
The reasoning behind the verdict
Why this assessment?
Reviewed
01 · Delivery status
Why partially done?
Gujarat's official 2026–27 residential-school admissions list contains 13 Swami Vivekananda Gyan Shakti Tribal Residential Schools of Excellence, entries 108–120, with locations and intake. The programme provides the promised kind of tribal residential education even though its name differs from the manifesto's 'Birsa Munda' label. Thirteen listed school options show real rollout but are below the target of 25; some use temporary addresses and the public list does not show 75,000 actual tribal students served. Thus the fixed school-and-student commitment is Partially Done.

02 · Strength of evidence
Why high confidence?
The official admissions list directly verifies 13 named tribal school options and their capacity. It does not provide a verified cumulative enrolled-student total or proof all permanent campuses are complete.
What would help us reassess?
The documents that could clarify delivery of this commitment.
- Official count of fully operational tribal Gyan Shakti residential schools with permanent campus status
- Year-wise actual tribal student admissions and current enrolment toward 75,000
- Clarification of whether the 2022 Birsa Munda title and current Swami Vivekananda schools are the same programme
Status describes delivery. Confidence describes the evidence.
