After Jr NTR, Kalyanram speaks about University name change

It’s known that the Andhra Pradesh government is moving to rename Dr NTR University of Health Sciences as Dr YSR University. The move has created a political storm already.

A while ago, moments after Jr NTR put out a statement saying that the renaming doesn’t dwarf the stature of NTR, Nandamuri Kalyanram waded into the issue. He noted that the University of Health Sciences was established as a public university in Vijayawada in 1986. The ‘Bimbsara’ actor spoke of the legacy of the Universty, which was inaugurated by NTR, the then-Chief Minister of the then-united AP.

Kalyanram observed that the University has produced hundreds of experts, specialists and doctors, and contributed to the development of the country over the decades.

“It’s saddening that such a University’s name is being changed. The University has maintained its standards regardless of whichever party has been in power. It’s wrong on the part of people to rake up the name-change merely for political benefit. The issue has emotive value,” Kalyanram said.
