Exclusive residential school for police and TSRTC staff children

Considering the severe work stress and the long duty hours of police and TSRTC staff, the Chief Minister discussed on the measures for quality education of their children. Right from senior Police officers to constables and from senior TSRTC officers to conductors, exclusive schools should be set up on the lines of Sainik School, Korukonda, he said.
