Different types of associations are mushrooming up as Telangana agitation has gained momentum since the T-region leaders submitted their en masse resignations. Every association and even individuals are trying to hog limelight by making announcements on their own. There seems to be a lack of co-ordination between the agitating groups.

The Telangana Recognised Private Schools Managements' Association (TRPSMA) in Warangal made an announcement on Sunday about the indefinite closure of schools from August 17. This has come as a shock to the managements of private schools in Hyderabad and Ranga Reddy districts.
Even parents and students in the city were shocked to hear about the move. Surprisingly, the school managements are not aware of the existence of any association called TRPSMA. With the media prominently highlighting the TRPSMA's decision, hundreds of parents and students approached the schools to check whether the decision is applicable for schools in Hyderabad and Ranga Reddy districts.

Concerned representatives of various schools in the city held consultations in the city and then clarified that they were not a part of any such association nor were they ever consulted on the issue. They said schools in the city would run as usual and they would declare a holiday only if there was a law and order problem on account of bandhs. While about 5,000 private schools in the city are part of Hyderabad Recognised Private Schools Managements’ Association (HRPSMA) and AP Recognised Private Schools Managements’ Association (APRPSMA), about 300 CBSE and ICSE schools in the city have separate bodies representing them. A large number of schools run by prominent corporate groups and international schools are not a part of any association. Even as the schools stated that they have not taken any decision on the closure of schools, they refused to comment on record, anticipating trouble from Telangana agitators.
