“All other States had reserved B-category medical seats for their local students. As a result, our children neither used to get a seat in Telangana nor in other States. With no options left, we used to send our children to countries like Ukraine and Philippines to pursue medicine. We appreciate Chief Minister, K Chandrashekhar Rao and Health Minister, Harish Rao for taking this decision,” Rayala Satish Babu from Khammam, said.

E Chandrashekhar from Telangana MBPS B-Category Local Reservation Sadhana Samithi said the decision is a boon for students.
