Telangana Private Colleges Shut Over Unpaid Fee Reimbursements

Private degree and postgraduate colleges in Telangana are closed today.

The colleges say the state government has not paid fee reimbursement money for a long time.

This money helps cover fees for eligible students.

College owners say the delay has created serious money problems.

They say it is becoming difficult to run the colleges and pay staff salaries.

The colleges’ association called the shutdown a bandh to press for payment.

Its president said some institutions may have to close.

He also said employees’ families are struggling because salaries have not been paid.
