More delay in inter issue after meeting cancelled

Meeting was about to discuss the Intermediate exams issue

Hyderabad: Following the joint meeting with Governor E.S.L. Narsimhan on Wednesday, HRD ministers of both states, Ganta Srinivasa Rao (Andhra Pradesh) and Jagadish Reddy (Telangana state) were scheduled to meet on Thursday evening to discuss the Intermediate exams issue. However, the meeting was cancelled due to Mr Reddy’s busy schedule.

Andhra Pradesh HRD minister Mr Rao said, “We are ready to concede ground in the interest of students,” indicating that the AP government was not averse to common exams being conducted by a Telangana-controlled Board of Intermediate Education.

However, when asked about it, Mr Rao said, “It is a hypothetical proposition. We will discuss all the possibilities and come to a conclusion.”

The decision has to be taken immediately since the printing of question papers takes four months, at the earliest.

“This means that unless a decision is taken in the next couple of days, the exam schedule will have to deferred,” sources said.
