CM meeting with Govt. and Local Body Teachers

Chief Minister Sri A Revanth Reddy participated in the meeting with Government and Local Body teachers at LB Stadium on Friday.

The future of Telangana lies in LB Stadium as 30,000 teachers gathered here in the important meeting. Parents of 26 lakh students in 30,000 government schools put their children’s future in your hands. The role of teachers during the Telangana movement is commendable.

We expect the education system will be improved and the teachers will get more respect in the new Telangana state. We hope that noted people like Kodandaram, Haragopal and Chukka Ramaiah will also receive great respect. We witnessed what happened in Telangana state. The previous government insulted the teachers.

My government planned to allocate 10 percent of the budget for education. In view of the implementation of the Six Guarantees, the government allocated 7.3 percent ( Rs 21,000 crore ) to education.

Currently, 26 lakh students are pursuing studies in 30, 000 government schools. 33 lakh students are studying in 10,000 private schools. Do private schools have better teachers than government schools? Due to the lack of basic facilities in government schools, students are joining private institutions.

It is a fact that the condition of employees in Telangana is worse than in the erstwhile united Andhra Pradesh. Teachers are like honeycombs. If anyone tries to disturb them, they will be assaulted.

The government took all measures to pay salaries on the first of every month to instill confidence. Resolved the issue of teachers’ promotions which have been pending for the last 15 years.

The government organized this meeting to send a message that the government is ready to address the teachers’ problems. The Telangana future is in your hands.

I have studied in the government school and reached this level. The objective of holding this meeting is to interact with the government teachers.

All the teachers should work with more commitment and provide quality education to the students. Student admissions in government schools decreased by more than 2 lakh this year. Government schools should be upgraded to attract the students to join and studying in government schools should be considered as self-respect.

Government is open to solving the government teachers problems. Self Help Groups have been entrusted with the responsibility of improving infrastructure in government schools. The schools are called Amma Adarsh Schools.

Ordered the authorities to provide free electricity to all government schools. Everyone should work with a commitment to build a strong Telangana.

The government will take special measures to promote sports. The government is mulling to establish mini stadiums in mandal headquarters.

The unemployment rate has been increasing due to a lack of skills. The laid foundation stone for Young India Skill University at the cost of Rs.150 crores on a sprawling 50 acres at Mucherla. Skill development training and jobs will be provided to the youth in Skill University.

New Sports policy will be adopted to promote sports. Your teaching to the students will pave the way to a strong Telangana. Teachers should take initiative to provide education to more poor students.
