Telangana and AP Aided Colleges to Turn into Private Colleges

Some of the top educational institutions in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh who have been functioning under the State Government Aid of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh many decades will now be forced to privatize their institutions. Institutions such as the nearly 70-year-old Badruka College of Commerce (BCC), commonly known as Shriram College of Commerce (SCC) in the metropolitan city of Hyderabad, has been working off of the Government aids provided by the state of Telangana. Sources state it is expected to see the college becoming a private college in the near future.

One of the decisions that were taken by the previous government was that the state of Andhra Pradesh had banned the institutions from employing faculty in the sanctioned posts of the aided colleges, which has been taking place since the last 20 years. A similar situation has been faced by the institutions in Telangana, however, it worse than Andhra Pradesh. The faculty who had been assigned the aided posts in Telangana educational institutions have been transferred to Government colleges in the previous academic year of 2018-19. These issues, along with others, that the institutions have been facing over the years have now forced the colleges to drastic steps like converting the courses into self-financing courses.
