Telangana Makes Anti Drug Affidavit Mandatory For Inter Admissions 2026
The Telangana Intermediate Board introduced compulsory anti drug affidavits for students and parents while announcing the admission schedule and guidelines for the 2026 academic year.
- Telangana inter admissions require anti drug affidavit
- TG BIE releases 2026 admission schedule
- Aadhaar details mandatory for inter admissions
The Telangana Board of Intermediate Education has introduced a new rule making anti drug affidavits compulsory for students seeking admission into intermediate first year courses for the 2026 academic session.
According to the latest admission guidelines issued by TG BIE, both students and their parents must submit the affidavit during the admission process. Officials clarified that admissions will not be confirmed unless the required document is submitted to the respective colleges.
The first phase of intermediate admissions across Telangana will begin on Tuesday, while application submissions will continue until May 31. Academic classes for the new year are scheduled to commence from June 1, and the initial phase of admissions must be completed before June 30.
The board also instructed junior colleges not to conduct entrance tests for admissions. Students are to be admitted strictly based on the marks obtained in their Class 10 examinations.
College principals have been permitted to provide provisional admissions using online marks memos. However, students must later submit their original marks memos to secure final confirmation of admission.
Along with the anti drug affidavit, Aadhaar card details have also been made mandatory for all students applying for admission into intermediate colleges in the state.
Meanwhile, some parents expressed concern over the affidavit requirement. They pointed out that obtaining a notarised affidavit could create additional inconvenience and financial burden, as families may need to approach lawyers for documentation.
Several parents suggested that the board should consider a simpler alternative such as accepting a written declaration from students and parents instead of insisting on notarised affidavits.
The Intermediate Board also advised students and parents to verify whether a college is officially recognised before taking admission. Officials said the list of approved junior colleges has already been published on the board’s official website.
