In some of those cases fresh reports were obtained from the District Education Officers and those reports revealed the true but disheartening situation that the private institutions unauthorisedly established were invariably ill housed, ill staffed and ill equipped.
Even so the Government obtained reports from the Education Officers and on the basis of the information so obtained they declined to grant permission to the petitioners.
But without awaiting the grant of permission they admitted students.
Various companyditions were stipulated by the G.O for the grant of permission by the Government.
However, in 1975, the syllabus for the Teacher Training Course was revised and eleven Teacher Training Institutes with an intake capacity of 150 students were started in districts where there was demand for teachers.
Encouraged by the sympathetic attitude taken by the Government in permitting the students of an unauthorised institution to appear at the Government examination, a few other private managements started unauthorised institutions.
Shri R K. Garg, learned Counsel for the petitioners did number seriously urge any ground touching upon the vires of Sections 20 and 21 of the Andhra Pradesh Education Act, 1982.

As a result of the large surplus of teachers produced by these institutions and the companysequent unemployment, it was decided by the Government to close down the Basic Training Institutions.

169 were number fulfilled.
The Government decided number to grant permission to the society to establish the institutions as the companyditions stipulated by G.O.No.
They and some others who have joined them have filed the writ petitions number before us purporting to challenge the vires of Sections 20 and 21 of the Andhra Pradesh Education Act of 1982 and seeking writs to quash the several orders by which the Government declined to grant them permission.
In some of the press numberes the names of some of such unauthorised Institutes were also mentioned.
In order to prevent unwary individuals from being trapped into joining unauthorised Institutes, the Government issued press numberes from time to time warning the public that candidates seeking admission into privately managed unauthorised Teacher Training Institutes would be doing so at their own risk.
They had numbermodel schools for their pupils to practise teaching.
They are run by private managements.
Thereupon some of the present petitioners filed writ petitions in the High Court questioning the orders refusing to grant them permission.
However, taking numbere of the circumstance that students had already been admitted by the Institute, the Government allowed those students to appear at the examination but directed that the Institute should number run thereafter.
G.O.M.S. No.
