Thirty-three new Backward Classes welfare residential schools, one each for the districts, would start functioning on October 11 and 15 new residential degree colleges on October 15, Minister for BC Welfare Gangula Kamalakar said.
The decision was taken at a review meeting held by the Minister here on Friday with the officials of the department. He stated that site allotment documents to BC communities that had formed into community-wise single association/body for the construction of Atmagaurava Bhavans would be distributed on September 8.
Thanking Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao for sanctioning 310 residential schools for BC communities so far, the Minister said the new residential schools and degree colleges were being established with high standards. He asked the authorities to identify lands for construction of own buildings for the new residential schools and colleges by coordinating with the district ministers and local legislators concerned.
