The student organisations in the state called for education bandh today


Hyderabad: Several student organisations in the state called for an education bandh on Thursday demanding that the K Chandrasekhar Rao government fulfil his promise of implementing 'KG to PG' scheme from this academic year. Student organisations such as Students Federation of India, All India Students Federation, Telangana Vidyarthi Vedika and PDSU and others called for the bandh.


In view of the bandh called by the student unions, some schools have declared a holiday on Thursday. However, most CBSE and ICSE schools have decided to take a call on Thursday morning. "During the month of June-July, such calls for bandhs are common. Although we had a discussion among ourselves, we will take a call on declaring a holiday only in the morning depending on the atmosphere," said the principal of a CBSE school. Last year when some student unions had called for a similar bandh. Last year, while a few state-run schools had shut down, there was no major impact on the CBSE and ICSE schools in the city when some student unions called for a band.


The student unions have also raised issues such as school fee hike, fee reimbursement arrears to junior colleges among others issued related to the education sector.
