Woman principal should be appointed
Kakatiya University and NCT should follow the rules and appoint a woman as the principal for Bhadrachalam Tribal BED College. In a meeting chaired by State Convener of Student Section of GSP, Irfa Prakash at ITDA premises on Wednesday, Gondwana Welfare Parishad State President Payam Satyanarayana demanded that Bhadrachalam was the only centre which has a tribal BED college in the state, not only that, when it was a united state it gained much popularity in Bhadrachalam Agency.
It is alleged that the ITDA officials have blindly appointed the principal without examining the minimum qualifications, and appointing a person who does not have a BED or M.E.D. as the principal of Bhadrachalam Tribal BED College. ITDA officials acted without knowing the difference between BED college and B.ped college.
ITDA officials said that candidates should be filled in based on their qualifications through open notification for the appointment of a tribal BED college principal. Otherwise, he said that he would file a writ petition in the High Court and take up protest programs.
He also said that many times in the past we have given petitions to ITDA officials to send those who come on deputation from ashram schools to their respective posts in Tribal BED College but they continue to do so without canceling their deputation.
Godwana Welfare Parishad strongly demands that the agency has PhD women candidates belonging to the tribal community and there are more girls in the college and, for the welfare of the girls, such women should be appointed as the principal of the tribal BED college. District presidents of the All India Association of GWP, Muttavarapu Janakiram Chinta Janardhan, Madakam Chittibabu Rajasekhar Erpa Rambabu participated in this program.

Everybody says these days have become a dearth of kindness towards the real needy people. We see how commercial elements crept into our society, yet, there were people with generosity to help others within their all capabilities. Am going to disclose one particular happening which showcased how a group in a small village made a big difference with many others in terms of charity. Cherla is a mandal headquarters in the division of Bhadrachalam and where a Gurkha has been living for decades. He came from a distant Nepal country to earn a living. The Gukha's name was Rajender Bahadur and he was living with his family.
Out of some unknown distress, he committed suicide and the family became helpless all of a sudden. One of the village men, Cheemakurthi Bhadram has taken the initiative to collect possible donations from fellow philanthropists and in the line of it many people responded with a broad heart. There were journalists, businessmen, peasants and many other professionals who came forward to help the poor family. Every day kept pouring donations which were featured in the group of whatsapp. Many have contributed something in their capacity. It was the beauty of Cherla, it's not the first instance of people coming forward to help others.
Senior Journalist Javvadi Murali Krishna has donated Rs.10000/- in cash, 25kg rice and other commodities worth two thousand rupees to his family and the Javvadi family always stands forefront of this sort of charity. Neeli Praksh, Gaddam Mani Kumar, Thotamalla Ramana Murthy, Sivaraju Kishor, Erramilli Kiran, Mehaboob Pathan, Guba Suresh, Lanka Venkat participated in the event. As the news came today, Rs. 73000/- altogether was donated to the distressed family with the help of Mandal people belonging to different walks of life.
