Telangana Colleges Face Lecturer Shortage, Affecting Students
Imagine schools don't have enough teachers.
That's happening in some government colleges in Telangana.
Many teachers, who help out temporarily, haven't had their jobs renewed, even though school started a while ago.
This means students are missing out on classes in important subjects like math and business.
Students are worried because they are not getting the help they need, and they're falling behind.
Some people think the government should fix this quickly by hiring more teachers so everyone can learn.
Many Telangana government degree colleges lack lecturers, three months into the academic year.
The delay stems from the government's inaction in renewing the services of 1,654 guest lecturers.
Core subjects like math, commerce, and political science are affected, leaving students waiting.
College principals have requested the government to deploy teaching staff immediately.
Student organizations are demanding the immediate issuance of renewal orders.
