Demand for Telugu quota in colleges

"Nearly 17.6% of the population in Karnataka is Telugu speaking. Hence, a joint house committee of Andhra Pradesh led by A Chakrapani, chairman, AP legislative council, has demanded 5% reservation in engineering and medical colleges for Telugu students in Karnataka. "



In a letter to AP CM K Rosaiah, the Karnataka Telugu Academy on Saturday said a large number of Kannada students stayed in the border districts of the two states. He requested the AP government to establish more Kannada-medium schools and urged that free textbooks for students up to class 10 be distributed, as was done for Telugu students by the Karnataka government.


Other recommendations



• Establish Pravasandhra development council for Telugu people living outside AP


• Linguistic minority students in Karnataka should have ratio of one teacher per 25 students


• Only eligible Telugu teachers to be recruited by Karnataka government to Telugu schools


• Establish Telugu-medium schools where more Teluguspeaking people reside, like in Bellary, Bidar, Raichur, etc


• Steps to release funds for cultural activities by both govts
