Lokesh to inaugurate VR High School today
Nellore: It is unimaginable for poor students to dream of studying in corporate schools due to high costs. However, Municipal Administration Minister P Narayana has made this dream a reality by facilitating admissions for 1,050 students from play class to 10th grade at Venkatagiri Rajas High School, now renamed VR Municipal Corporation High School (VRMCHS), located in the heart of Nellore city. HRD Minister Nara Lokesh will inaugurate VRMCHS on Monday (July 7). Students at VRMCHS will receive free breakfast, lunch, snacks, and bus services. Notably, this is the first school to introduce digital education on panel boards with international standards, a pioneering initiative in the region. The P-4 concept, envisioned by Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu, inspired Narayana, a former student and part-time lecturer at VR institutions, to reopen the school, which had closed in 2021. Nagarjuna Construction Company donated Rs 15 crore for renovations and infrastructure as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility. A Venkatamma, a daily-wage laborer from Ranganayakula Pet, expressed gratitude, saying, 'I never dreamed my son could study at VRMCHS. Thanks to Narayana Sir, his corporate education is now a reality.' During the 2024 elections, Narayana noticed many students unable to afford corporate schools due to poverty, prompting him to provide accessible education with philanthropists' support. He stated, 'As a former VR student, I felt responsible for reopening VRMCHS. I'm confident all 54 municipal schools will transform similarly.' Historically, VR High School has a rich legacy. In 1875, Sunkuru Narayana Swamy Chetty founded the Anglo Vernacular School (AVS) with 152 students but stepped down due to financial issues. Later, Haji Mahammodh Rahiman Tullah reopened it after purchasing the land for Rs 2,400, but it closed again by 1886. Raja Krishna Yachendra Bahadur, the 28th Raja of Venkatagiri, established a permanent fund of Rs 50,000, renaming it Venkatagiri Raja School. Eminent figures like former CM Bejawada Gopala Reddy and high court judges studied there. Despite its past glory, VR institutions, including VR Degree College and VR Law College, faced closure in 2021 due to court disputes, leading to VRMCHS's revival.

Jane Street saga: Rahul Gandhi targets Modi govt over SEBI's crackdown, says investors are being pushed to brink of ruin
Rahul Gandhi, Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha, launched a scathing attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led government on Monday over recent Sebi's explosive crackdown on American hedge fund Jane Street that has sent tremors through India's Rs 6.2 lakh crore capital market infrastructure "I clearly stated in 2024 - the F&O market has become a playground for 'big players,' and small investors' pockets are continuously being drained. Now SEBI itself is admitting that Jane Street manipulated thousands of crores. Why did SEBI remain silent for so long? At whose behest was the Modi government sitting with its eyes closed? And how many more big sharks are still shorting retail investors? In every case, it's clear - the Modi government is making the rich richer and pushing ordinary investors to the brink of ruin," said Rahul Gandhi in a post on X. — RahulGandhi (@RahulGandhi) What is the Jane Street controversy? Jane Street is a well-known proprietary trading firm based in the US, active in more than 45 countries. SEBI recently accused the firm of manipulating stock and index prices in India to benefit its options trades. According to SEBI, Jane Street made huge profits by first buying stocks to push prices up and then selling them off later in the day to make money from falling prices in the options segment. The regulator has frozen over Rs 4,800 crore in profits linked to these trades and banned Jane Street and its India arm from participating in the market. SEBI has also frozen their bank and demat accounts as part of an ongoing investigation. Live Events Economic Times WhatsApp channel )

Opposition conspiracies can't stop us from working for the poor: Deputy CM Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka
KHAMMAM: Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka on Sunday alleged that leaders of opposition parties are hatching conspiracies as they are unable to digest the fact that the Congress government is successfully implementing welfare schemes. Addressing a public meeting after distributing the Indiramma house pattas (land titles) to beneficiaries at Madhira, Vikramarka said: 'The opposition is worried because we are successfully implementing all the welfare schemes. No matter how many conspiracies are hatched, we will stand by the people and continue to work for their welfare.' 'These welfare schemes are aimed at eradicating poverty. Our objective is to provide a home and restore dignity to every person in the state. We spent Rs 22,000 crore on the Indiramma housing scheme in just one year, which is a record in the country. From a newborn child to the elderly, there is a welfare scheme for everyone,' he added. Stating that there are 1.1 crore families in Telangana, the deputy CM said: 'The Indiramma government is providing at least one welfare benefit to nearly 93 lakh families. In just one-and-a-half years, we have implemented some form of welfare programme for every stage of life, from birth to old age,' he said.
