53 Gurukul Degree Colleges in the Telangana State

There are 53 Gurukul degree colleges in the state. Of these, 30 degree colleges have been sanctioned for the SC Gurukul Society and 22 degree colleges have been sanctioned for the ST Gurukul Society.

Gajwel is the only women’s degree college under the Telangana Jyotiba phule Telangana Backward Classes Welfare Gurus Educational Institutions Society (MJPTBCWREIS). Due to the limited number of seats in the college, the BC students who had advanced their guru education up to Inter could not venture into private. There is a huge demand for the establishment of Gurukul Degree Colleges from BC. The BC Welfare Department has twice sent proposals to the MJPTBCWREIS government seeking to set up a degree college in each district center as pressure mounts on the Gurukul Society. There has been no response to the third-time proposals to set up a single degree college, at least in the joint district center.

If immediate action is taken
If the government approves the establishment of new Gurukul degree colleges, they will be able to open in the 2022–23 academic year. Officials say the availability of buildings, the establishment of a college and the creation of infrastructure will be possible only if the government gives its approval 3 months before the new academic year. College management is possible only if there are proper arrangements rather than a school model. He says if the government takes immediate action, it will be possible to set up colleges basically by August.

Removal of interview marks for Group – 1 and Group – 2 Exams

The state government, which has suspended interviews in government job placements, hopes to reduce the marks in exams as well. So far, all the papers have the maximum marks combined with the interview marks. Earlier, only the total marks of the written test will be the maximum marks. In this order the Group‌ – 1 exam will be for a total of 900 marks and the Group‌ – 2 exam will be for a total of 600 marks. To this extent the recruitment agencies have almost brought the process of examination process to a halt.

Written test basis
Interviews for Group-1, Group-2 scales, Medical Officer in Medical Institutions, and direct appointments at the post level, and Demo Round for teaching posts in Gurukul Educational Institutions have so far been crucial. The government has decided to cancel these appointments on the basis of written tests to avoid delays in appointments and to avoid any room for manipulation. Recruitment agencies are focusing on changes in the examination system for the respective jobs. They suggested that it would be better to cancel the interviews as well as remove the marks related to them. A final decision on this is yet to be made.

Decreasing marks
► Previously the Group‌ – 1 examination was conducted for a total of 1000 marks. There were various written tests for 900 marks and 100 marks for the interview. The Group‌ – 2 exam was conducted for 675 marks. 75 marks were for interviews. Now if the marks of the interviews are removed .. Group‌ – 1 examination can be conducted for 900 marks and Group‌ – 2 examination for 600 marks.
► Currently there is a demo (direct teaching test) along with written tests for PGT, Junior Lecturer, Degree Lecturer appointments in Gurukul educational institutions. Officials hope the demo policy will be scrapped as the government removes interviews for groups‌ exams.
► Candidates for some posts in the medical department have so far been selected only through interviews. This time the board is working on a special operation for the appointments of the respective posts.

There are no changes in the syllabus!
Changes in the examination procedure were inevitable with the cancellation of interviews in job placements. Recruitment agencies, however, feel that changes in the examination syllabus are not necessary. However as the interviews have been deleted .. there is also a proposal to include items related to the respective abilities in the written test.
