Clear fees for students to get certificates, Harish Rao urges Govt.

Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) floor deputy leader T. Harish Rao on Sunday demanded that the state government immediately clear the backlog of fee payments and ensure that colleges issue certificates to students who have completed their courses.

In a statement, Mr. Harish Rao said that he had been approached by several students who complained that the college authorities were withholding their certificates due to non-clearance of fees by the government. Many of them, despite completing engineering and other courses of study and securing employment, could not join their organizations because they did not have their certificates, he said.

Accusing the Congress government of weakening the fee reimbursement system, the former minister said that every rupee spent on the education of students should be considered an investment in the future of Telangana. He called on the government to abandon its “tough stance” and immediately release the charges.
