Hard work learned in SRR polytechnic college

I am the LCE 1st batch (1979 to 1982) student of SRRS Govt Polytechnic College, Sircilla. Being the 1st batch, the classes were run in temporary sheds on the campus of Govt Junior College Sircilla. Soon after completion of SSC from AP Residential School Sarvail I opted to study LCE in SRRS Govt Polytechnic College.

I came from middle class family of remote village Dugnepally of Chennur mandal of old Adilabad district, present Mancherial district.

I am very thankful to the lectures ,principals and my friends of this institute without whose support I might not be in this position. They were supported me during my study in this institute so that I could complete AMIE in 1986.
