MOHINI CHERUVU IN 2018
THE MOHINI CHERUVU:
• The students criticized the university authorities to have colluded
with senior politicians who have been eyeing the university lands.
• In the recent past, Minister Padma Rao had requested the OU vice
chancellor for land inside OU for the construction of double bedroom
houses.
• Students say that the Mohini Cheruvu and its surroundings nurture a
eco-friendly green environment.
• Even if the intention of the GHMC is to beautify the area, it would
lead to a number of outsiders entering the campus which would lead to
several problems.
• The establishment of bio-diversity park will happen and there is a
plan for large scale greening of the campus and the Mohini Cheruvu
would be protected.
