Hyderabad: BJP SC and ST Morcha leaders on Tuesday staged a protest and presented a representation to the Telangana Council for Higher Education (TGCHE) Chairman Prof V Balakista Reddy seeking the council's intervention on the private engineering colleges collecting exuberant fees from the students.

They called for an immediate inquiry and strict action against these colleges, which have commodified education. BJP ST Morcha State president, Dr Kalyan Nayak and SC Morcha State President Kondeti Sridhar met with Prof V Balakista Reddy and submitted a representation explaining in detail how several private engineering colleges in the state are charging SC/ST students between Rs 10-15 lakh for seats without adhering to the minimum reservation norms.

The leaders emphasised that if the practice of turning education into a business and neglecting the needs of economically disadvantaged SC/ST students does not cease immediately, the BJP ST and SC Morchas will organise state-wide protests soon.

I am pleased to share that TGCHE has taken the lead in revising UG courses to integrate emerging trends in skill development, multidisciplinary learning, and experiential education, as outlined in the NEP 2020.' Further, efforts are focused on reducing content overload while embedding critical thinking, creativity, and industry-relevant competencies. The revised curriculum will incorporate key UGC frameworks, including the National Credit Framework (NCrF), apprenticeship-linked degree programmes, short-term skill modules, multiple exit and entry options and digital pedagogy. This initiative aims to bridge the gap between academia and dynamic societal needs, ensuring students are future-ready.
