Speaking at a review of the Human Resource Development Department on Thursday, Naidu emphasised upgrading the public education system to rival private institutions, ensuring Telugu students emerge as leaders in the global knowledge economy.

To achieve this vision, he proposed forming special teams to study national and international universities' teaching methods for integration into the State's curriculum. Naidu also underscored the need to prepare for emerging sectors like civil aviation, green energy and tourism, recommending the setting up of dedicated universities for the sectors. He highlighted the importance of connecting skill development institutions across the State's five zones with the upcoming Ratan Tata Innovation Hub in Amaravati.
