Telangana CM Prioritizes Girls' Schools in Education Reforms
The Chief Minister of Hyderabad, A Revanth Reddy, has told his team to make schools for girls a top priority in a big project called YIIRS.
He wants one school for girls and one for boys in every area where people vote, and he wants them built in three years.
He also wants to use solar kitchens to make food for the schools and make sure the money for building is given on time.
The Chief Minister also looked at how breakfast and lunch are given to students and wants to make a plan to do this better all over the state.
He ordered 23 new school buildings to be finished in Hyderabad before the next school year starts.
He also wants to change what students learn in school from first grade to tenth grade so they can get good jobs.
He is working with a company called Tata Technologies to make sure students in special schools learn things that will help them get jobs right after they finish school.
Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy prioritized girls' schools in the first phase of the YIIRS project.
A three-year deadline was set to build one integrated campus each for boys and girls in every Assembly constituency.
Solar kitchens under the PM-KUSUM scheme and timely payment of construction bills were emphasized.
A statewide plan for breakfast and lunch programs was ordered, with centralized kitchens for every two constituencies.
23 new school buildings in Greater Hyderabad must be completed before the next academic year, with each school occupying at least 1.50 acres of land.
