GOVERNMENT DEGREE COLLEGE CHINTURU

The Government Degree College, Chinturu is established in Alluri Sitharama Raju District in Andhra Pradesh in the year 2018 with an aim to cater to the educational needs of the tribal students of Chinturu, Kunavaram, Vara Ramachandra Puram and Yetapaka mandals and also to provide milieu for learning thereby to lead a better life.

The area originally belongs to Khammam district of Telangana State after bifurcation of united Andhra Pradesh but was transferred back to Andhra Pradesh in order to facilitate the Polavaram multipurpose Project.

While some of the NGOs and individuals have worked for upliftment of tribals, no comprehensive action has been initiated in the area. With this thought in mind the government of Andhra Pradesh has decided to establish a Higher Education Institution in Chinturu. This initiation not only improves literacy rate among the tribals but also safe guards the tribal traditions, customs and culture while offering modern education.
