Speaking to the media, Srinivas Rao said that the government was spending about Rs 25,000 crore on education in spite of a deficit budget.

He further said that ‘Badi Runam Teerchukundam’ initiative involved the public in development of the schools.

He said that the vehicles would cover 1200 villages across the state for 20 days.
