Barely four students from Backward Kumram Bheem Asifabad district were provisionally selected to study at the premier university. Twenty-eight students belonging to Mancherial district were shortlisted by the university as against 24 in 2023. Twenty-seven students of Adilabad got seats when compared to 29 students in previous year.

Nirmal district secured 99.05 percent of pass in SSC and stood in the top in Telangana as against 99.11 percent of pass recorded in 2023. Kumram Bheem Asifabad district was at 31st position with registering 83.29 percent of pass posting when compared to 76.36 percent of pass in 2023. Adilabad district appeared at 17th by registering 92.93 percent of pass. Mancherial district was figured at 23rd position in the results.

“The seats are directly proportionate to the quantum of students who score 10 grade points average (GPA) in results in a district. A few students from the district got the average, while the district got seats substantially less than that of other districts. However, efforts are being made to ensure students from the region achieve more seats than the past,” Kumram Bheem Asifabad Educational Officer P Ashok told ‘Telangana Today.’

Siddipet district continued to be in the top position in getting the highest seats for three years in a row. It achieved 330 when compared to 322 seats in 2023 and 212 seats in 2022. Nizamabad district stood in the second spot by securing 157 seats as against 68 in 2023 and 135 in 2022.
