Lakshmi Parvathi remains silent on renaming of NTR University of Health Sciences

The State government’s move of changing the name of Dr. NTR University of Health Sciences into Dr. YSR University of Health Sciences has evoked strong reactions from the Opposition parties, organisations and other quarters.

But mum’s the word for his wife, Nandamuri Lakshmi Parvathi, who has maintained a strategic silence on the issue. The government’s decision has riled up the family members of the former Chief Minister the late N.T. Rama Rao.

When asked for her comment, she said she would need some time to speak about the issue.
