BRS leader held for threatening V-C of Telangana Mahila Vishwa Vidyalayam

The Sultan Bazaar police arrested BRS leader Gaddam Srinivas Yadav for threatening the Vice-Chancellor of Telangana Mahila Vishwa Vidyalayam on Thursday. 

Police said that at around 1:45 p.m., Yadav entered the chamber of M Vijjulatha, also the principal of Koti Women’s College and asked her to felicitate him.

“He claimed that he does a lot of social work and that he gives free education and scholarships to girl students as he is a contender for MLA ticket from Goshamahal constituency,” said the police.

After she told him that she would accept his request if he could sponsor some of the economically and socially weak students in Telangana Mahila Vishwa Vidyalayam, he got angry and threatened her.

“He shouted at her, threatened her, and refused to leave the chamber. Following a complaint from the V-C, we registered a case and arrested him,” added the police.
