The Telugu Desam Party (TDP) has made a scathing attack on the State government, accusing it of closing down 8,000 schools in the State.
Addressing the media on Thursday, TDP official spokesperson K. Pattabhiram said the State government had put the future of the students at stake with the sole objective of obtaining ₹2,000 crore World Bank loan.
“The Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) report points out that conditions are imposed to avail of the loan. The condition is that the department shall avoid increase in recurring Human Resource (HR) expenditure by keeping the additional requirement, if any, to the bare minimum,” he said.
