YSRCP Leaders Detained Amid Protests Over Tribal School Relocation in Andhra Pradesh
YSR Congress Party leaders, including former Deputy Chief Minister Pushpa Sreevani, were detained during protests against the Andhra Pradesh government's plan to discontinue the Tribal Welfare Residential School at Marikavalasa. The government aims to upgrade the school into a Centre of Excellence focusing on coaching for national entrance exams, while parents and students oppose the relocation of tribal students mid-academic year. YSRCP leaders and Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy criticized the detentions and called for addressing tribal families' concerns, whereas the government maintains arrangements for displaced students in other institutions.
