The Federation of Professional Colleges of Telangana State has said the colleges were suffering as the previous BRS government did not release the fee reimbursement dues to the tune of ₹6,500 crore pending since 2020.
Federation members Ravi Kumar (engineering colleges), T. Jaipal Reddy (pharmacy colleges), Sudhir Kumar (MBA colleges) and S. Parameshwar Reddy (nursing colleges) have urged Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy to release the funds at least for the tokens issued to the colleges since 2021 but not paid.
