‘Implead in Andhra Pradesh HC for 25% private school seats to underprivileged’
Telangana High Court on Thursday expressed disappointment over the State government not impleading itself in a writ petition filed by a private educational society challenging the provision of providing 25% of seats in all private schools to underprivileged and poor sections of the society.
Hearing a batch of PIL pleas and writ petitions connected to the issue and the provisions of the Right to Education Act, the High Court said the government should have promptly responded on the matter since it involved interests of the underprivileged sections.

As the bench of Chief Justice Hima Kohli and Justice B. Vijaysen Reddy took up the matters, Special Government Pleader Sanjeev Kumar explained that government could not implement 25% of seats to the underprivileged sections in all private schools due to a stay order.
