AP staff neither here nor there
Thousands of students from Andhra Pradesh pursuing professional courses in Telangana are left in a catch-22 situation due to the cutoff date fixed by the AP government to provide local status.
Hyderabad: Thousands of students from Andhra Pradesh pursuing professional courses in Telangana are left in a catch-22 situation due to the cutoff date fixed by the AP government to provide local status.
According to Andhra Pradesh Gazetted Officers Association president K V Krishnaiah, there are around 1,000 children of secretariat employees pursuing engineering, medicine and other professional courses in various colleges in Hyderabad. All these people will have to shift before June 2, 2017, if they wanted to be counted under local category in AP.
“But, now the issue is that most of them are not in a position to shift before that date fixed by the government. Because, all these students have executed an agreement with their respective colleges, that if they drop the course in the middle, then they will pay the fee for whole course of four years,” said an official from the Civil Supplies Department. This comes to about Rs 2 to Rs 4 lakh per student, he added.
