Interacting with students, she enquired about the quality of food and other facilities being provided to them in the hostel. She asked the school authorities to provide quality food to students and not to show any negligence.

Speaking on the occasion, Kavitha said Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy had in the past promised to regularize the services of teachers working in Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan Schools. She demanded the government to regularize all those teachers working in SSA schools. The concept of Gurukuls, launched by former Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao, should not be spoiled, she said, asking the government not to compromise in providing quality food to students.
