SIRCILLA: Union Minister of State for Home Affairs Bandi Sanjay Kumar on Sunday condemned the decision to remove Potti Sriramulu’s name from Telugu University. Addressing the Atmeeya Sammelanam meeting, after Reddaboina Gopi took charge as the BJP district president, he said that the government was trying to insult Potti Sriramulu and his legacy.
“Potti Sriramulu was a freedom fighter. He went to jail during the country’s fight against the British. He was not only a freedom fighter but a martyr who sacrificed his life, demanding formation of Andhra Pradesh. Now, the Congress state government is insulting him with its decision to remove his name from the Telugu University,” he said.
