The minister for the Scheduled Caste Development Department G. Jagadish Reddy felicitated the toppers of NEET, IIT-JEE, CA-CPT and CLAT at the Secretariat, Hyderabad, today. The minister said that the TSWREIS has been playing a pivotal role in building Bangaru Telangana by providing quality education to the marginalized children and winning the confidence of the parents. He said that the Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao’s support to the government residential schools in the state has been unparalleled in the history of the education sector in the country and the entire country is looking at the Telangana government’s model of residential educational system, he added.

Speaking on the occasion, the minister said that as many as 200 students of the TSWREIS secured admission in the premier academic institutions in India and abroad in 2017. It’s a matter of pride that Mr. Anand of  the TSWREIS has been selected for the prestigious the Harvard University’s Summer Crossroads programme. He congratulated the students for continuing their successful trend in medicine, IITs, NITs, TISS and Central Universities  for the last three years. The minister said that the 72 students of the Operation Blue Crystal programme (OPBC) are likely to join medicine this year.  This is a milestone for the TSWREIS as never before such a large number of students from the marginalized sections got selected for the medicine.

 For the first time in the history of the TSWREIS, 12 students secured admission in the prestigious Delhi university and one student in Vishva-Bharathi University, West Bengal. Probably Sandhya Rani is the first student to join the Vishva-Bharathi University in the last thirty years from both the Telugu speaking states.
