Licensed Surveyor Trainees Receive Kits from Additional Collector Lakshmi Narayana in Gadwal
Gadwal: In an effort to strengthen land rights documentation and ensure transparency in land records management, the Telangana State Government has initiated the training of licensed surveyors. As a part of this initiative, Additional District Collector Mr. Lakshmi Narayana distributed training kits to surveyor trainees on Tuesday.
The distribution took place at the IDOC (Integrated District Offices Complex) in the chamber of the Additional Collector, in line with the directives issued by the District Collector.
Addressing the gathering, the Additional Collector stated that the government has launched the licensed surveyor program with the objective of maintaining land records in a transparent and accountable manner. He emphasized that the kits being provided to the trainees would play a crucial role in enhancing their practical skills.
'The training program includes both theoretical sessions and practical field training. I urge all candidates to dedicate themselves fully to learning the techniques and tools of land surveying,' he said.
He further explained that under the 'Bhoobharati' Act, survey maps have become mandatory for processes such as land registration and mutation. Hence, there is a growing demand for licensed surveyors, particularly in rural areas.
Mr. Lakshmi Narayana also noted that those who successfully complete the training program will be required to pass an examination, after which they will be issued a Licensed Surveyor Certificate. He encouraged the trainees to make the most of this opportunity, which could pave the way for promising careers in land management and public service.
The event was attended by Survey and Land Records Department Assistant Director Mr. Ram Chander, several trainee candidates, and other officials.

Construction cost of YIIRSs far less than that of IDOCs: Sources
HYDERABAD: Refuting the allegations being levelled by the BRS leaders, the state government sources on Friday clarified that the construction cost of Young India Integrated Residential School buildings was far less than that of Integrated District Offices Complexes (IDOC) built during the previous regime. 'The cost fixed for Siddipet IDOC was Rs 4,058 per sqft. It was Rs 4,990 for Sircilla IDOC, Rs 3,994 for Mulugu IDOC and Rs 4,875 for Warangal East IDOC. But the cost fixed for Young India Integrated Residential School buildings was Rs 3,730 per sqft,' sources said. The rate fixed for residential schools was very less when compared with cost of any construction activity taken up in the last two years, the sources said and added that the building cost was fixed in a transparent manner. The state government took up the Integrated Residential Schools to provide quality education to BC, SC, ST, Minority and EBC students. Though the BRS government constructed 600 residential school buildings, most of those were continued to be run from rented buildings without any amenities. Because of this, the Congress government decided to shift all those schools to the newly constructed Integrated Residential School buildings. Each Integrated Residential School can accommodate 2,650 students, sources said. 'Each Young India Residential School will have one academic building with four blocks (G+2) and a total of 1,60,339 sqft buildup are, six blocks of dormitory (G+3) with 2,57,451 sqft buildup area, dining and kitchen (G+1) with 41,860 sqft space and quarters for principal and staff. Each residential school will have 5,36,194 sft space, they added.

Govt. terms BRS criticism of budget enhancement for Young India Integrated Residential Schools as politically motivated
The State Government has refuted allegations surrounding the enhancement of the Young India Integrated Residential Schools (YIIRS) budget, terming the criticism both baseless and politically-motivated. The officials said that the objective of establishing YIIRS was to provide state-of-the-art infrastructure and high-quality teaching and learning equipment to students, most of whom come from disadvantaged and rural areas. The new residential complexes are designed to accommodate up to 2,650 students and will include modern boarding facilities, residential quarters for teaching and non-teaching staff, and sports facilities that meet international standards. Purpose-built campuses Officials highlighted that the government inherited from the previous administration nearly 600 residential schools operating out of private buildings, many of which lack basic amenities. It is imperative to move these schools into purpose-built campuses to provide a safe and conducive environment for learning. The architectural plan for each YIIRS covers a total built-up area of 5.36 lakh square feet, featuring Four academic blocks (G+2 floors) – 1,60,339 sq. ft.m Six dormitory blocks (G+3 floors) – 2,57,451 sq. ft., Dining cum kitchen block (G+1 floors) – 41,860 sq. ft., Principal quarters (4 units of 3 BHK, G+1 floors) – 7,483 sq. ft., Staff quarters (48 units of 2 BHK, G+3 floors) – 61,378 sq. ft. and Additional quarters (8 units of 1 BHK, G+1 floor) – 7,324 sq. ft. Transparent process Responding to allegations of cost escalation, the government clarified that all project estimates have been meticulously prepared using standard engineering designs and scheduled rates. The per square foot construction cost for the YIIRS is ₹3,730, significantly lower than the rates fixed for Integrated District Office Complexes (IDOC) during the previous BRS regime. During the BRS regime, the cost was Siddipet IDOC: ₹4,058/sq. ft., Sircilla IDOC: ₹4,990/sq. ft., Mulugu IDOC: ₹3,994/sq. ft. and Warangal East IDOC: ₹4,875/sq. ft. This proves beyond doubt that the claims of inflated costs are baseless. The construction cost under the current government is more economical than the projects approved two years ago under the previous administration, an official said.
