Congress conspiring to destroy Gurukul education system, says RS Praveen Kumar
"They claim to be building integrated schools in 21 constituencies, but how can they justify constructing facilities for 2,560 students with just Rs.25 crore? Are these schools or poultry farms?" he questioned
Hyderabad: BRS leader RS Praveen Kumar charged the Congress government with conspiring to destroy the prestigious Gurukul education system established by the previous BRS government to provide quality education to poor students in Telangana. He demanded that the Congress government hold an all-party meeting to discuss the future of integrated schools with intellectuals and education experts.
Addressing a press conference at Telangana Bhavan on Tuesday, Praveen Kumar launched a scathing attack on Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy and Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka, saying they lacked understanding of the Gurukul system. “They claim to be building integrated schools in 21 constituencies, but how can they justify constructing facilities for 2,560 students with just Rs.25 crore? Are these schools or poultry farms?” he questioned, challenging the government’s approach to education infrastructure.
The BRS leader reminded that the K Chandrashekhar Rao government had meticulously built the Gurukul system, allowing children from all communities access to quality education. He pointed out that the BRS government had spent Rs 10 lakh per student annually, ensuring proper facilities and inclusivity. However, he criticised Revanth Reddy’s recent remarks accusing the previous government of failing to maintain the schools and ensure social justice. “If the Congress government is truly committed to education, it should immediately release funds for repairs and improvements in the 662 Gurukul residential schools,” he demanded.
