Telangana Chief Minister inaugurates Young India Police School, emphasizing how country' future lies in its classrooms
The Young India Police School at Manchirevula was inaugurated by Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy on Thursday (April 10, 2025) where he highlighted the government’s vision for education, employment and institutional excellence.
Referring to the long-term vision behind the initiative, Mr. Reddy said the issue of a dedicated police school was included in the Congress party’s election manifesto.
“Young India Police School is of great importance to every police personnel. We are committed to developing it on the lines of Sainik schools,” he said in his address, adding that the necessary funds would be allocated for the school’s growth.
As part of his commitment to making the police school a model institution, the Chief Minister appealed to private companies to contribute financially as part of their social responsibility. “A corpus fund of ₹100 crore must be created for the police school. The government is ready to provide all necessary permissions,” he said.
Concluding his speech, Mr. Reddy called on all stakeholders to work collectively to make the Young India Police School an exemplary institution in the country.
Mr. Reddy acknowledged the declining enrolment in government schools and said reforms will be introduced from the primary level onwards, including the introduction of a pre-school system.
He reflected on how the legacies of political leaders are shaped by the decisions they take. “Many Prime Ministers and Chief Ministers have served the nation, but only a few are remembered in history. Their decisions changed the course of time,” he said. He went on to reference N.T. Rama Rao’s ₹2-per-kg rice scheme, Chandrababu Naidu’s IT development in Hyderabad, and Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy’s image as a farmer’s ally. “Just as each of them had a brand, I have created mine — Young India,” he declared.

Four persons were killed and three others sustained injuries in a fire that broke out in a five-storey building housing several manufacturing units in Rohini Sector 5, the police said on Wednesday. Sixteen fire tenders were rushed to the spot after the Delhi Fire Services (DFS) received a call about the blaze at 7.30 p.m. on Tuesday. However, due to the combustible material stored in the building, including plastic and clothes, and the narrow lanes leading up to it, which prevented fire engines that ran out of water from giving way to other rescue vehicles, it took the DFS over 12 hours to douse the flames.
