Govt spending thousands of crores on colours
Jagan not willing to spend Rs 600 on aided schools
AMARAVATI: Telugu Nadu Students Federation State President Pranav Gopal on Sunday asked whether the AP Government’s target was to destroy the future of students with its unilateral merger policy of the aided educational institutions in the State.
Pranav Gopal said that the credit for driving students out of schools and into the roads would only go to Chief Minister Y.S. Jaganmohan Reddy. The donors and philanthropists gave away their lands for the aided institutions for moulding future generations of the people. This played a key role in the development of human resources.
In a statement here, the TDP leader slammed the Jagan Reddy regime for wasting thousands of crores on painting party colours on the Government office buildings and on the extra constitutional advisors system. Over Rs. 750 Cr was looted in the name of gunny bags for ‘sanna biyyam’. But, the ruling YSRCP regime was not willing to spend Rs. 600 Cr on grants to aided schools.
Pranav Gopal reminded the YSRCP leaders of the fact that the aided system was there since the days of the British Raj. The Chief Minister’s sole focus was on getting huge monetary benefits rather than on the protection of the educational system. Alarmingly, the Government was misleading the courts by providing false information on the aided institutions in the State.
The TDP leader asserted that the AP people have already realised how Jagan Reddy was bent on crushing the aided system. The people were eagerly waiting for the opportunity to show the door to the YSRCP regime.
