Three University of Hyderabad research scholars Tuesday lodged a police complaint against the Varsitys Vice-Chancellor for allegedly hurting the sentiments of SC/ST students on the campus by destroying the portraits of BR Ambedkar and Jyotiba Phule, among others.
Accusing VC Apparao Podile of "criminal intimidation", the students in their complaint said Apparao passed an order alleging that they dug up the University ground to erect the portraits of the national leaders whereas they were just "loose ly standing on the ground."
