Hyderabad In a scathing critique of the Telangana State Board of Technical Education (TGSBTE), the BRS Student Wing (BRSV) has expressed outrage over the board's delay in enabling payment options for the Diploma Supplementary Exam. Despite prolonged protests and intense struggles by students, which culminated in the government issuing a much-awaited G.O. allowing supplementary exams, the board has yet to implement a functioning system for fee payment. The last date for payment of the exam fee is December 3, leaving students across Telangana in a state of confusion and anxiety. As of now, the TGSBTE website remains non-functional in updating details about exam fees, month and year selection, or providing any means for candidates to pay their dues. **Demand for Immediate Action
Advocate Mir Qurram Ali, coordinator of the BRS Student Wing, has publicly demanded that TGSBTE act promptly to resolve the issue. "This delay is an example of the board's negligence, which is impacting thousands of students preparing for their supplementary exams. We demand that the website be updated immediately and that fee payment options are made available without further delay," he said. The student community has rallied behind the BRSV, echoing their frustrations on social media and tagging government officials, including the Telangana Chief Minister's Office (@TelanganaCMO), to bring attention to the issue. *Students Speak Out** Many students have taken to Twitter and other platforms, pointing out the irony of the situation. "After so many protests, the government finally passed the G.O. for supplementary exams. But now we can't even pay the fee because the system isn’t ready. How can they expect us to meet deadlines?" one student lamented. *Accountability and Action Needed** The BRSV has warned that further inaction from TGSBTE will lead to renewed protests and more significant disruptions. The group has called for transparency in the process and an assurance from the board to prevent such administrative failures in the future. iN th the deadline looming, the ball is now in TGSBTE's court to address the grievances of students and ensure smooth conduct of the supplementary exams. The spotlight remains on the Telangana government and TGSBTE to prove their commitment to the educational aspirations of the state's youth.
