Andhra Pradesh Government has cancelled the recognition of 259 private schools. Examinations director A Subba Reddy released the list of these schools on Friday. Subba Reddy said the recognition of these private schools had expired in the 2020-21 academic year and they had not renewed it.

“The government has cancelled their recognition from the academic year 2020-21. Nominal rolls of all these schools will not be accepted from the current academic year,” he said. This apart, repeated warnings about their failure to provide minimum infrastructure and facilities to students have been ignored by the management, he added.
