Commissioner (School Education) S. Suresh Kumar on August 31 (Thursday) said that concerted efforts should be made to provide the best opportunities available across the world to the students in Andhra Pradesh.

He said students with outstanding qualities should be identified, given leadership roles and trained to work towards securing a sustainable future. He said a nodal officer should be appointed in each district to promote the Entrepreneurial Mindset Development Programme in schools.
