Telangana moves to implement 25% RTE quota in private schools for underprivileged children
Telangana is moving towards implementing the 25% RTE admission quota for children from economically weaker sections and disadvantaged groups in private schools. School Education Director Dr E. Naveen Nicolas reportedly assured the NCPCR that the state would follow Supreme Court directions. The court has directed the commission's Chairperson and Director to attend the October 27, 2026, hearing. Telangana has considered identifying areas without nearby government schools for targeted implementation, with admission rules and eligibility conditions to be finalised.
