Former Bhupalpally MLA Gandra Venkata Ramana Reddy on Thursday visited the Minority Residential School and Kasturba Gandhi Balika Vidyalaya (KGBV) in Jayashankar Bhupalpally district. Accompanied by BRS leaders and student representatives, he inspected classrooms, hostels and sanitation facilities.

Reddy reported cracks in the residential school building, poor lighting, and a need for painting repairs. At the KGBV, he demanded better bathrooms for girls, fans, lights, and a dedicated reading hall. He also urged mosquito fogging and hygiene measures during the monsoon. He asked the administration to raise academic standards and improve living conditions in both institutions.
Blaming the government for crumbling school walls is easy. The lazy narrative that Telangana's residential schools are uniformly neglected skips over the fierce local competition for development funds. A real test: how many other former MLAs inspect schools, not just inaugurate them? The state's education budget allocation for 2026-27, when tabled in the Assembly, will show whether the political class walks or merely talks.
