Telangana govt moves to clear Rs 1,200 cr dues after colleges call strike

Bowing down to pressure from the private professional and degree colleges, which called for indefinite closure of institutions from September 15, the Congress government has positively agreed to release the long-pending fee reimbursement dues. 

However, the colleges made it clear that no classes will be conducted in any



of the colleges across the State on Monday.

Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka, IT Minister D Sridhar Babu, Chief Secretary K Ramakrishna Rao and Education department officials held a long meeting with Federation of Associations of Telangana Higher Education Institutions (FATHI) representatives here on Sunday night.
