When THI questioned the staff, they simply relied that they were not aware of the students' complaints. They were seen intimidating those daring question them. This was confirmed by Medchal district BJP secretary Prabhakar.

He told THI that parents were suffering because of the behavior of the staff in the local mandal office towards their wards. For their failure to issue on time the required certificates, students were facing several problems. Appealing to the officials to expedite issue of certificates, he threatened to launch an agitation if they failed in properly discharging their duty..
