• Officials told the college to shift classes to temporary quarters, identifying space at a new Sultan Bazaar building or the Telangana Minority Residential School.
• About 1,200–1,300 students are affected as the campus has reported chronic seepage, cracks, exposed iron and even electric shocks after rains.
