Forced Labor in Gurukuls: Student Unions Demand Principal's Suspension in Itikyala
Gadwal: A shocking incident has come to light from the Social Welfare Gurukul School in Itikyala Mandal, where students are reportedly being forced to perform menial labor such as cleaning bathrooms, toilets, and utensils—tasks assigned by none other than the school principal. This blatant exploitation led to student union leaders submitting a formal complaint to the District Collector at the Gadwal District Collectorate today, demanding immediate suspension of the Itikyala Gurukul principal involved in the alleged forced labor practices. 'Forcing Students into Menial Labor is a Crime' – BRSV State Leader Kurva Pallayya Addressing the media, Bharat Rashtra Samithi Vidyarthi (BRSV) State Leader Kurva Pallayya strongly condemned the incident. He stated: "Forcing minor students—most of whom are under 18—into activities such as cleaning toilets and utensils is a legal offense under child labor laws. Gurukul schools are meant to educate and empower underprivileged children, not subject them to bonded labor and humiliation." He further demanded the immediate suspension of the concerned principal and strict disciplinary action. Recurring Violations Across Institutions Kurva Pallayya also reminded that this is not an isolated incident. Just days ago, a similar case was reported at Mahatma Jyotirao Phule Gurukul School near Alampur Chowrasta, where students were forced to engage in cleaning tasks due to lack of support staff and inadequate infrastructure. 'These repeated incidents show a failure of the state education administration. Parents send their children to these schools hoping for quality education and dignity—not for them to become victims of exploitation,' Pallayya said. Negligence and Lack of Basic Facilities in Hostels Student leaders also highlighted the lack of basic amenities in hostels, not just in Itikyala or Alampur, but across several Gurukuls, KGBVs (Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalayas), and welfare hostels in the district. They urged the District Collector to: Immediately investigate all residential educational institutions in the district Ensure deployment of adequate support staff to prevent burdening students with manual chores Upgrade and provide basic facilities such as sanitation, clean water, and kitchen infrastructure Leaders Who Filed the Complaint The delegation that met with the District Collector included: Kurva Pallayya – State Leader, BRSV & District Coordinator, Jogulamba Gadwal, Haleem Pasha – District President, PDSU Danayya – District President, PYL Rangaswamy – Assistant Secretary, USFI They have warned that if appropriate action is not taken swiftly, state-wide protests will be organized by student unions in solidarity with affected students. Call for Government Accountability The leaders also criticized the Congress-led state government, accusing it of neglecting the needs of students and failing to monitor the functioning of welfare institutions. They claimed that students are being pushed out of classrooms and onto the streets due to lack of basic dignity and facilities. 'The government must treat these issues with utmost seriousness if it wants to prevent the collapse of public trust in residential education systems,' said Haleem Pasha. Awaiting Collector's Response As of now, the District Collector has acknowledged receipt of the complaint. Further action, including an official inquiry or suspension of the principal, is expected soon. Student unions have vowed to continue their fight until justice is served and conditions improve for all students across the district.

Massive Illegal Textbook Racket Busted at Sri Chaitanya School in Gadwal: BRSV Demands Strict Action Against Private School Exploitation
Gadwal: In a major development in the Jogulamba Gadwal district, a massive stash of unauthorized private school textbooks and notebooks was seized at Sri Chaitanya School, exposing large-scale exploitation of parents under the guise of education. According to BRSV (Bharatiya Rashtra Samithi Vidyarthi) State Leader and Jogulamba Gadwal District Coordinator Kurva Pallayya, private schools in the district have been extorting parents by charging exorbitant fees for textbooks—ranging from ₹10,000 to ₹20,000 per student. 'These private schools are sucking the blood of poor parents like leeches,' he remarked. Raids and Seizures: The books were discovered in a rented residential building located in the lane opposite the Vrudhi Bhavan near Vijay Mess in the district headquarters. Acting on this information, the local Mandal Education Officer (MEO) arrived at the location and sealed the rooms where the textbooks had been dumped illegally. Kurva Pallayya demanded the immediate cancellation of Sri Chaitanya School's recognition and strict action against the school management. Statement by BRSV State Leader Kurva Pallayya: He condemned the commercialization of education, accusing private school managements of: Falsely branding government textbooks as private content and selling them at inflated prices. Failing to provide quality education while turning schools into profit-making ventures. Dumping unauthorized books in rented houses and running illegal sales operations. He further criticized the school for violating the Fee Regulation Act, noting that even nursery students were being charged ₹32,000 per year—an alarming exploitation of the education system. Demand for Action: Immediate revocation of the school's license. Legal action against those involved in printing, storing, and selling unauthorized textbooks. Elimination of private schools that misuse the education system for commercial gain. Kurva Pallayya warned that if authorities fail to act, BRSV will launch a district-wide protest against such exploitative educational institutions. He also expressed disappointment with the lack of action taken against Saraswati School, where a similar incident involving illegal textbooks and notebooks was uncovered recently. Participants: Student leaders including Mahadev, Yuvaraj, Narasimha, and Mahesh participated in the protest and supported the call for reform in the district's private education system. Conclusion: This incident sheds light on the growing issue of commercial exploitation in private schools. With mounting pressure from student organizations like BRSV and the public, the district administration is expected to act swiftly to ensure accountability, uphold educational standards, and protect the rights of students and their families.
