Hyderabad: In the one and a half year rule of Congress, the Best Available Scheme (BAS) scheme has also come under question. The government owes Rs 210 crore to private schools. The school management has made it clear that the scheme cannot be implemented without paying the amount. Due to this, the future of 25 thousand students has come under question and the parents and teachers of the students are angry due to no response from the government. Congress government.. Ignoring education Governments have been implementing the Best Available School Scheme for 17 years to provide free private and corporate education to SC and ST students. Through this scheme, SC and ST welfare departments issue notifications and select students and send them to private schools in the same district. The government admits SC students in class 1 and 5 and ST students in class 1, 5 and 8.
After admission, it pays their fees till class 10. A primary school student is given Rs 1500. Rs 28,000 per year is paid to a student of a higher secondary school and Rs 42,000 per year including accommodation to a high school student. Text books, notebooks and school uniforms are given free of cost. Already 17,000 SC and 8,000 ST students are studying in various classes under this scheme. No payment for one and a half years The Congress government has not paid Rs 210 crore to private schools under the Best Available Scheme for one and a half years. The owners of private schools have met government officials several times and asked them to pay the fees. But they are expressing anger over the fact that the government and officials are not paying attention.
It has been decided to send students who took admission earlier from schools and hostels. If the funds are not released, admissions will not be taken. The government has outstanding funds for the Best Available Scheme. We are not able to run the school due to financial constraints. No matter how many times we appealed to the government officials, there was no result. Even if we appeal to the officials, they do not pay attention. If the government does not release the funds immediately then there is no point in taking admission under this scheme from this academic year.
