TS Govt should regulate private schools: Experts
Noted civil rights activist Professor Hara Gopal said that governments need to have control over private educational institutes.
Baghlingampally: Noted civil rights activist Professor Hara Gopal said that governments need to have control over private educational institutes. He was speaking at a round-table conference organised by 'Save Education Committee' at Sundaraiah Vignana Kendram here on Tuesday.
Professor Hara Gopal said that although private institutions take permissions from government to operate, there was little control over them when they charge excess fees.
Condemning the exploitation by schools through excess fees, Haragopal said commented that all the Raithu Bandhu money given by both state and central government was not enough for the poor to pay school fees. He alleged that the State government was closing down government schools to keep away the poor from getting educated and termed it as state conspiracy.
Criticising BJP government, he lashed out at the BJP government for branding those who oppose NIA Bill as terrorists. He also decried BJP government's proposals to involve military personal for teaching in schools as part of social activity. Among those who participated in the meeting were Prof K Lakshmi Narayana, general secretary of Telangana UTF, Chava Ravi, Ramu and others.
