Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao on Monday signed the file, allowing filmmakers and television programme producers to resume the shootings.

The Chief Minister said that the shooting for films and televison programmes may be resumed with limited number of workers and while following the guidelines issued by the government. He also allowed post-production works to resume, according to the Chief Minister`s Office.

Recently some prominent personalities from Telugu film industry had called on the Chief Minister to request him to permit shootings of films, TV programmes, post-production works and re-opening of cinema theatres. 

The CM also said that all class 10 students would be promoted to the next class based on their internal assessment marks.
