Education budget downsized by 20 per cent in TS

Deccan Chronicle  

The announcement to downsize the 2021-22 state budget by 20 per cent could prove to be bad news for the education sector, experts suspect. The government's state budget for the 2020-21 fiscal year had allocated just 6.69% of the total outlay to the education sector, making it the state’s lowest ever in terms of percentage. Of the projected outlay of nearly Rs 1.83 lakh crore, just Rs 12,144 crore has been set aside for the education sector in the 2020-21 budget, whereas in 2019-20, the education budget allocation was Rs 12,220 crore, or 6.76% of the total budget. While in the 2014-15 state budget, the education budget accounted for 10.89 per cent of the total Rs.1,00,637 crores, in 2015-16, it came down to 9.69 per cent.
