Hyderabad: With private engineering colleges applying for closure, the Telangana government is now eyeing on the premises of these colleges to shift government degree colleges there. As 58 government degree colleges do not have buildings and 18 colleges do not have lands, the government was of the view that renting out engineering colleges would be beneficial.

The Commissionerate of Collegiate Education has already sent proposals to the government seeking an approval to rent out premises of the engineering colleges starting next academic year. As many as 12 private engineering colleges have come forward for the closure from the next academic and applied for the No Objection Certificates (NOC) to Jawaharal Nehru Technological University-Hyderabad.

The government and JNTU-Hyd had already issued NOCs and the colleges are awaiting a nod from the All India Council of Technical Education for the closure. An official of Commissionerate of Collegiate Education said-“The department has moved a file to the government. Once government accords permission from the next academic year the colleges will be shifted.” So far 58 government degree colleges were functioning from the premises of government schools and junior colleges on shift basis.
