Vani and Veena, the conjoined Telangana twins were put under the care of the social welfare department since they were 12 years old.
Telangana’s conjoined twins, Vani and Veena, who are appearing for this year’s SSC exam will be given separate answer sheets after they requested for the same. Vani and Veena have also requested the Telangana Education Department to release separate admit cards for them. This means although conjoined Vani and Veena will be treated as separate individuals.
While considering their request of issuing separate admit cards for them, the education department of Telangana was confused regarding whether to treat both of them as one individual or treat them as separate individuals. Finally, the Board complied with the twins’ request to issue separate admit cards hence treating Vani and Veena as individuals.
