In the Osmania University campus students took out a rally against TRS chief K. Chandrashekhar Rao while he was campaigning in Hyderabad. They were against his statement on regularising contract workers on coming to power. The situation came under control after KCR's meeting with student representatives. KCR, who was campaigning at various places in the city, reached the campus in the evening.
KCR's convoy was stopped at the ‘A’ ground by around 200 students. They raised slogans against him like ‘go back KCR’ and ‘down down KCR.’ The students were angered by promising regularisation of contract employees. They questioned about their future and scope for employment. Though KCR met with student leaders, they were unsatisfied by his claims.
“Some of our leaders met him and explained our problems. KCR responded by promising 20 per cent, which is not acceptable,” said S. Gangadhar, a member from the OU student JAC. “The student leaders held a meet with KCR, following which the situation came under control. The students then gave way and the convoy left. There was no violence, complaints and arrests.” said A.V.R. Narsimha Rao, inspector, OU police station.
