Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], March 16 (ANI): Bharatiya Janata Party Leader Ramchander Rao on Sunday condemned the banning of agitations, dharnas, and demonstrations at Osmania University and said that there is an “undeclared emergency” in Telangana by the State government.
“There is an undeclared emergency in Telangana by the government. The government has directed the Osmania University authorities to ensure that no Dharna or gathering happens on the university campus. The university campus has been the hotbed of agitation, and it was students who helped carve out the state of Telangana,” the BJP leader told ANI.
“The university is doing it at the behest of the government. The government want to suppress the students and their demands regarding employment and other things. BJP condemn such act of the government,” he added.
This comes after Osmania University prohibited agitations, dharnas and demonstrations within its departments, colleges, centres, and administrative buildings.
The decision comes citing disruptions to academic and administrative activities.
The University authorities said they have viewed the matter seriously and decided to prohibit trespassing, staging dharnas and agitations, raising slogans etc in the premises of the Departments/Colleges / Centres / Administrative Building of the varsity.
The University has also prohibited preventing administrative authorities and staff from discharging their official duties and using “unparliamentary and filthy language” against University staff and authorities.
As per an internal document of the University, they said it was observed there are several incidents of students/student groups have been entering the Departments /Colleges, Centres / Administrative Building, Osmania University and staging demonstrations and dharnas, resulting in disruption of the administrative work and giving a wrong perception of the University to the Society.

On certain occasions, these incidents also raised security issues and concerns.
The University further said that if any person is found involved in the above “activities, serious action will be initiated” against such person as per law.
The varsity also said that stakeholders (i.e., Students on rolls) with a genuine grievance in the University system, if any, may first approach the concerned Official at the institution level, and thereafter may represent to the Registrar and the authorities, with prior permission. (ANI)
