The Ministry has replied to the questions above mentioned in Lok Sabha on 13.3.2013 as under...
"The number of teaching as well as non-teaching categories of posts sanctioned in the Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalayas (JNVs) in the country is given below:-
| Sl. No. | Category | Posts Sanctioned |
| 1 | Principal | 584 |
| 2 | Vice-Principal | 395 |

| 4 | Trained Graduate Teacher (TGT) | 5,146 |
| 5 | Misc. Categories teachers | 3,056 |
| 6 | Non-teaching staff | 9,023 |
| Total | 22,536 |
The employees of JNVs appointed before 01.01.2004 have not been found eligible for the grant of pension under the CCS (Pension) Rules, 1972 as the Navodaya Vidyalaya Samiti (NVS), an autonomous organization, was registered after 01.01.1986, the cut-off date for determining the eligibility of employees of autonomous bodies, for pension under CCS (Pension) Rules, 1972. These employees have been representing for this pension and some sections of them had proceeded on strike with effect from 06.02.2013 for fulfillment of their demands, of which the major demand related to grant of pension. The strike has since been withdrawn with effect from 15.2.2013 after assurances from the Government that all their legitimate demands would be sympathetically considered in a time-bound manner.
The Government has approved the introduction of the New Pension Scheme (NPS) for all the regular employees of the NVS, joining on or after 1.4.2009. Those employees who had joined the Navodaya Vidyalaya Samiti on a regular basis before 1.4.2009, including those appointed prior to the year 2004, shall have the option either to continue with the existing Contributory Provident Fund Scheme or to join the New Pension Scheme".
