KNRUHS extends last date for online applications to July 30
The University had earlier announced that it would consider the students as local only if they have studied in the state for four years from Class-IX to Intermediate.
However, after recent directions from the Supreme Court, which said the admissions should be as per the system followed during the previous year. Last year the students got admission based on the nativity certificate given by the Tahasildars.
The last date for counselling was ending on Friday. With the Supreme Court directions, the University has decided to extend the last date for submitting the certificates.
The students have been facing the non-local issue thanks to the previous orders of the government, which said the students should continuously study for four years in the state. The students who have studied in other states for two years had become non-locals whereas the other students who studied here were getting the benefit as locals. The students from Telangana approached the Court, which ordered the government to take up admission as per the system followed during the previous year.
The last date was extended till 5 PM on July 30 due to several requests received from the candidates and parents and also court cases with regard to local/non-local issues. If the candidate faces any difficulty for submitting the online application the following numbers may be contacted: For technical help: 9392685856, 9059672216 and 7842136688.

SC issues 15 guidelines to address student suicides, mental health in educational institutions
The Supreme Court on Friday issued 15 interim guidelines to address the rise in student suicides and mental health challenges in educational institutions across India, PTI reported. The guidelines include the appointment of trained counsellors and psychologists, the adoption of a uniform mental health policy and annual reviews of wellness interventions at such institutes. A bench of Justices Vikram Nath and Sandeep Mehta observed that there was a 'legislative and regulatory vacuum' regarding a unified, enforceable framework for suicide prevention in schools, colleges, coaching centres and similar environments. The court said the guidelines would remain in force and binding until suitable legislation or regulatory frameworks were introduced by the competent authority. The order came in response to an appeal against an Andhra Pradesh High Court decision that had rejected a request to transfer to the Central Bureau of Investigation a probe into the suspicious death of a 17-year-old National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test aspirant in Visakhapatnam. The Supreme Court directed the central agency to take over the investigation, according to The New Indian Express. Mental health safeguards The Supreme Court directed all educational institutions to adopt and implement a uniform mental health policy, drawing from the UMMEED draft guidelines, the Manodarpan initiative and the National Suicide Prevention Strategy. It must be reviewed annually and made publicly available on institutional websites and notice boards. The draft UMMEED, or Understand, Motivate, Manage, Empathise, Empower, Develop guidelines were released in 2023 by the Union Ministry of Education to help prevent student suicides in schools. The Manodarpan initiative was launched to provide psychosocial support during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. The National Suicide Prevention Strategy outlines roles for stakeholders in reducing suicide rates. Among other suggestions, the court said that institutions with more than 100 students must appoint qualified counsellors, psychologists or social workers trained in child and adolescent mental health. Smaller institutions may establish formal referral arrangements with external professionals. The court directed educational and coaching institutions to avoid practices that could harm students' mental well-being, such as public shaming, assigning academic targets that exceed students' capacity and segregating students into batches based on their academic performance. Residential institutions have been advised to install tamper-proof ceiling fans or other safety devices and restrict access to rooftops, balconies and similar high-risk areas to deter impulsive acts of self-harm. The court said that coaching hubs in cities such as Jaipur, Kota, Sikar, Chennai, Hyderabad, Delhi, and Mumbai must implement enhanced mental health protections. All teaching and non-teaching staff must undergo mandatory training twice a year, conducted by certified mental health professionals. These guidelines apply to all public and private schools, colleges, universities and coaching centres.

NEET aspirants seek more exam centres in state
T'puram: A majority of state's 20,000 aspirants, who registered for NEET PG 2025 examination, scheduled for Aug 3, got examination centres in far away places in other states. Only 13 examination centres were allotted for Kerala and these were filled within one hour of beginning the registration process on National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) portal. The centres were allotted through the portal on a first-come, first-served basis. As a result, many candidates who didn't secure centres in Kerala got centres in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. Although many attempted to opt for centres in Tamil Nadu and Karnataka, they were unsuccessful as those centres also filled up quickly. Indian Medical Association-Junior Doctors Network (IMA-JDN) has urged Union health minister to allot more examination centres either in the home state or in neighbouring cities. "We approached Centre a week ago, but there has been no favourable response yet from them," said Dr Sreejith N Kumar, national chairman of the network. The demand of aspirants taking the exam is that Union govt either increase number of seats at examination centres in Kerala or increase the number of examination centres. "We approached MPs from Kerala to exert pressure on Centre. While some students received centres in neighbouring cities, many others are being forced to undertake long, expensive and stressful journeys to unfamiliar destinations," said Dr Sreejith. tnn
