Karimnagar byelection

Professors fan out in the constituency and visit interior villages

KARIMNAGAR: TRS president K. Chandrasekhar Rao has found a new set of campaigners in the teaching faculty of Osmania and Kakatiya Universities and Non-Resident Indians, who have rallied behind him in the run-up to the Karimnagar byelection.

Led by the former dean of social sciences, Osmania University, Madhusudhan Reddy and K. Laxman of Philosophy Department, the teachers are fanning out in the Karimnagar parliamentary constituency visiting interior villages and seeking votes for the TRS chief and urging them to uphold the `self-esteem of Telangana'.

A 30-member team of professors has divided itself into small groups to cover all the seven Assembly segments. More than 300 students from OU are going round villages educating the voters on the need for the creation of a separate State.
