The coalition government led by Chief Minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu is set to introduce value education, gender equality and constitutional values in school curriculum as part of a major educational reform.

The initiative follows recommendations from government advisor Chaganti Koteswara Rao and aims to shape responsible, ethical and socially aware citizens.

Following the instructions of HRD and IT Minister Nara Lokesh, value education will be introduced at two levels, covering both primary and secondary schools. This curriculum will focus on character development, social harmony, decision-making skills, emotional well-being, and civic sense. By instilling strong moral values, the government seeks to create a generation of students who are honest, responsible, and compassionate.
