None can forget the contribution of students of Osmania University in the agitation for Telangana statehood. Students played key role and whenever politicians from all parties tried to put the statehood issue on the backburner,students used to take huge protests and ensured Telangna movement didnot lose its steam.

Now the same students who contributed in Telangana agitation feel Telagnana CM KCR and ruling TRS party is insulting them with its discriminating policy. Telangana Government much to the shock gave permission to prosecute M.Krishank, student leader in a case registered against him in 2012 during which OU students took out protests.

Students now fear others who protested too will face the same consequences now as TRS government is planning to protect only students who are part of Telangana Rashtra Samithi Vidyarthi Vibhag (TRSVV),its students wing. It was pointed out that TRS immediately dropped all charges against Balka Suman who became MP.

Manvata Rai,state president, National Students Union of India, the student wing of the Congress says “I have 150 cases slapped against me and all are up for hearing at the Vth sessions court, Nampally. The legal process is taking its course and all student leaders could soon face prosecution if the government does not drop cases,“. J Kalyan, state vice president of Yuva Morcha, the youth wing of BJP says "Over 400 student leaders of Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) and NSUI still have 50 to 100 charges against them for participat ing in the separate statehood agitation for over two years. OU student leaders apprehend government's plan to wipe out their presence on campuses in the 10 districts. “ Worried OU students are planning to take protest march on March 15 on OU campus and then take Chalo Assembly rally on 22 March.
