Adds visiting government schools gives him the same feeling as visiting a temple
Nalgonda: God created teachers to shape society by moulding students into valuable citizens,” said Roads and Buildings Minister Komatireddy Venkat Reddy while attending a Teachers’ Day celebration held in Nalgonda on Thursday.

He also shared his ongoing efforts to improve several government schools in the constituency.
