The first term breaks for junior colleges in the state have been declared by the Telangana State Board of Intermediate Education. October 6–13, 2024, will be holiday for all government, private aided, private unaided, cooperative, and welfare institutions that offer a two-year intermediate program. This choice was made in consideration of the junior college first term holidays, which are set for October 6, 2024, to October 13, 2024.
TSBIE has further declared that the first-year Intermediate Course admission deadline for the 2024–25 academic year will now be extended to October 15, 2024.
All schools will also be closed from Gandhi Jayanti to Dusshera while junior colleges will be closed from October 6. Important festivals such as Mahalaya Amavasya on October 2, Bathukamma Festival beginning on October 3, and Dussehra (Vijayadashami) on October 13, 2024 will be observed at this time as part of the holiday schedule.
One of Telangana's major celebrations, Dusshera is deeply significant both culturally and religiously. During this period, the state also celebrates Bathukamma, a festival honouring women, with tremendous fervour and elaborate floral arrangements in addition to customary ceremonies.
The first day of classes at colleges will be October 14, 2024.
The principals of all government, private aided, private unaided, and other kinds of junior colleges were requested by TSBIE in an official statement to widely publicise this extended deadline within their respective jurisdictions. The goal is to guarantee that all college administrations follow the revised timetable so that more students can be admitted.
