Telugu Desam Party (TDP) national president N. Chandrababu Naidu demanded the State government to withdraw the proposed merger of municipal schools with the Education Department.
In a statement on Wednesday, the TDP chief accused the government of ‘hatching a conspiracy to take over the prime properties of over 2,115 municipal schools in cities and towns across the State’.
“Where was the need for a merger when the municipal schools are achieving good results? Moreover, these schools have been catering to the educational needs of students from poorer sections for over 160 years,” he said.
