Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Dinesh Sharma has said the state government is working towards making secondary education in the state a "model for quality education".

Sharma, who also holds the Secondary Education and Higher Education portfolio, said a number of steps have been taken to ensure "cheating free" examination in the state.

He highlighted a slew of measures taken by the Yogi Adityanath-led government to improve the quality of secondary education in the state.

"To achieve the goal, a comprehensive plan has been prepared for activating major components associated in the system," Sharma said here on Saturday, before leaving for Agra.

He said, "Not only NCERT syllabus has been introduced but availability of qualified teachers, their screening through written test, is being ensured."
