Parliament member YS Avinash Reddy garu on Wednesday took a key step towards strengthening the education sector by raising the demand for a new Kendriya Vidyalaya in Proddutur. Along with fellow MP Gurumurthy garu, he met Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan garu in New Delhi and formally urged the Centre to consider the proposal.

Meeting With Union Education Minister in New Delhi
During the meeting, YS Avinash Reddy highlighted the educational requirements of Proddutur and the surrounding areas. He emphasised that a Kendriya Vidyalaya would help address increasing student demand and provide a structured, high-quality learning environment aligned with national education standards.
Officials said the proposal was presented as part of a broader vision to strengthen institutional support for education in Andhra Pradesh.
Focus on Access to Quality Central Education
YS Avinash Reddy underscored that access to Kendriya Vidyalayas plays a crucial role in ensuring academic continuity and competitiveness for students. He noted that central schools not only offer quality education but also support the children of transferable employees and local residents seeking CBSE-based learning.
The demand reflects a policy-oriented approach aimed at bridging educational gaps and improving learning outcomes.
Education as a Pillar of Long-Term Development
The MP reiterated that investment in education infrastructure is essential for long-term social and economic development. By seeking a new Kendriya Vidyalaya, Avinash Reddy positioned education as a priority sector requiring sustained institutional support from the Centre.
Observers note that such initiatives contribute to building human capital and expanding opportunities for future generations.
Role of Parliamentary Representation in Regional Development
The meeting highlights the role of parliamentary representatives in raising region-specific developmental issues at the national level. By engaging directly with the Union Education Ministry, YS Avinash Reddy sought to ensure that Proddutur’s educational needs receive due consideration in policy planning.
The proposal is expected to be examined by the Ministry as per established norms and feasibility assessments.
Continued Engagement for Educational Advancement
YS Avinash Reddy has consistently emphasised education as a core area of intervention. The demand for a Kendriya Vidyalaya in Proddutur adds to ongoing efforts to enhance access, equity, and quality in the education sector.
Further steps are expected as the Centre reviews the submission and evaluates the requirement for a new institution.
