Students belonging to ABVP’s Tirupati unit staged a demonstration at the Sub-Collector’s office in Tirupati.
Students under the banner of Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) demanded the cancellation of Government Orders (G.Os) 35 and 42 pertaining to aided schools and colleges.
Staging a demonstration at the Sub-Collector’s office in Tirupati on Wednesday, the students belonging to ABVP’s Tirupati unit wondered how the government could take a unilateral decision to take over aided institutions functioning for several decades.
“Such a mindless decision will not only endanger the careers of thousands of students but also make such great institutions go extinct”, the regional organiser M. Nagesh rued, demanding immediate withdrawal of the G.Os.
Around 440 MBBS graduates of 2021 are not required to undergo one year of compulsory rural service as per the bond signed by them while joining the medical course through government-quota seats in 2015 as the High Court of Karnataka has said the law, enacted in 2012 for mandatory rural service, remained unenforced for 10 years as it was published in the official gazette only in July 2022.
