Andhra Pradesh Education Minister Nara Lokesh on Sunday (September 20, 2026) stated that the government was striving to groom students to be capable of accepting both success and failure equally.
Accompanied by Cultural Advisor Chaganti Koteswara Rao, Mr. Lokesh interacted with the school students, including visually challenged students, during ‘Bharateeyam‘, an initiative of the government aimed at spreading moral values among the students at Akundi Lakshmi Smaraka Goshala in Kakinada.
Addressing the gathering of students, Mr. Lokesh has added, “You should be strong enough to accept failure and strive for success and be determined to face any problem”.
“Moral values in the field of education will help to register more progress in the education system in the State,” said Mr. Lokesh.
On restrictions on politics and political activities in schools, Mr. Lokesh has said that schools are being kept away from politics by giving up printing images of the Chief Minister and Education Minister on the school books and materials supplied to the students.
Advocating the adoption of moral values, Mr. Lokesh has asked the students to respect and offer a salute to the soldiers wherever they are seen. “We have many soldiers in Andhra Pradesh who sacrificed their lives on the borders for our country. The soldiers are our real heroes”.
Rajya Sabha MP Sana Sateesh, Kakinada District Collector M.N. Harendhira Prasad and other officials were present.
