Answer:
VEC stands for Village Education Committee under SSA, or Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan. A regulatory body that exists in a village at the school level is the Village Education Committee. It guarantees the community’s interest in the smooth running of the school. This encourages parents to send their kids to class. Its goal is to universalize elementary schooling.
In the micro-planning, infrastructure maintenance of schools, supervision of educational institutions and teacher efficiency, and planning of the village education, the committee plays an important role.
