Noted educationalists, including M. Kodanadaram and G. Haragopal, stressed the growing disparity between students’ aspirations for quality education and the resources provided by the current system.
They attributed this gap to the proliferation of private educational institutions and the declining support for universities. They called for urgent measures to strengthen the higher educational institutions, including the State run universities, in the State.
They were attending a state-level symposium titled ‘Status and strengthening of higher education in Telangana’ held on Monday at Kakatiya University in Warangal.
