Hyderabad: BRS MLC K. Kavitha criticised the Telangana government’s education policies and alleged that recent government schools remarks and administrative decisions had created uncertainty across the education sector. She claimed the government’s approach could make education less accessible for poor students and girls while raising concerns about policy implementation and institutional coordination.
Addressing the media, Kavitha alleged that the Chief Minister had failed to exercise effective oversight over the Education Department. She said there was a visible gap between public announcements made by the government and the decisions implemented by education authorities.
According to Kavitha, the situation had created confusion among students, parents and educational institutions. She claimed that several policy decisions lacked clarity despite the academic year already being underway.
Referring to Intermediate education, Kavitha alleged that statements made by the Chief Minister were inconsistent with actions taken by the Intermediate Board. She said students and educational institutions were facing uncertainty because of conflicting signals from different authorities.
She also pointed out that admission procedures had already begun. However, she claimed confusion over policy matters continued to persist across the education system.
Government schools remarks raise concerns over admissions
Kavitha further alleged that authorities had not granted affiliations to several government and private junior colleges even after the commencement of the academic year. Consequently, she said institutions were facing difficulties in planning admissions and academic activities.
Additionally, she criticised the handling of degree admissions. She alleged that proposals had been announced without securing approvals from universities. According to her, the lack of coordination had created uncertainty for students seeking admission to higher education courses.
Moreover, Kavitha raised concerns about residential educational institutions. She accused the government of failing to adequately address issues affecting students in Gurukul schools. She also alleged that authorities had not responded effectively to incidents involving student deaths in residential institutions.
Furthermore, the BRS leader highlighted pending fee reimbursement dues and said delays were affecting students from economically weaker sections. She criticised the implementation of Government Order No. 7 and demanded that the government withdraw it.
Kavitha also called for the introduction of a comprehensive fee regulation law. She argued that such legislation was necessary to prevent excessive fees charged by private schools and colleges. According to her, stronger regulation would protect students and parents from financial burdens while ensuring access to affordable education.
The remarks added to the ongoing political debate between the ruling Congress and the opposition BRS over education policies, student welfare and the future direction of Telangana’s education sector.
