Hyderabad: Swathi of Tribal Welfare Residential Degree College for Women, Jangaon said: “I will be visiting Poland in the month of January 2019 to do a project on ‘Decent Work and Economic Growth’. I am thankful to the Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao for his empathy and vision for helping poor children realize their dreams”, said an elated Swathi.

Students studying in Telangana Tribal Welfare Residential Degree Colleges wouldn’t have ever dreamed of a trip a foreign country owing to their poor family backgrounds.

The selected students will take up internship projects in countries like Poland, Nepal, Sri Lanka and Greece as part of the six-weeks long exchange programme.

Dr Praveen Kumar, Secretary, said, it’s a golden lettered moment in the history of the TTWREIS that 15 students got a chance to visit different countries and their life’s journey from remote villages to international stage is truly remarkable. He congratulated the students for their rare feat and attributed the success to hard work and commitment of teachers and students. Dr Kumar thanked the Chief Minister for launching 55 residential degree colleges for marginalized students under the KG-PG Mission. No state in the country took such a revolutionary step in providing higher education to poor students in the government education sector, he remarked.
