A large number of protestors from Telugu Desam Party (TDP), Jana Sena Party (JSP), student union members and several members from AU alumni association who had arrived on the Andhra University campus to take part in "Chalo Andhra University" programme were arrested by the city police here on March 3.
The protestors have been agitating for the last few days against the Andhra University Vice-Chancellor, Prof. PVGD Prasad Reddy, for alleged irregularities in the campus and for turning the campus into a political hub of the ruling YSR Congress party.
