The sprawling lands of Victoria Memorial Home Residential School in Kothapet, liberally donated by Sixth Nizam Mir Mahbub Ali Khan for orphans and semi orphans, are at the eye of the storm yet again, with the Ministry of Social Welfare reportedly proposing to lease the lands out for private cultivation.
After being thwarted in its attempts to alienate part of the land for Rachakonda Police Commissionerate some time ago, the government has allegedly come up with the fresh proposals, ostensibly to meet the food requirements of the children staying in the hostel.
A meeting of the school’s executive committee chaired by the Minister for Social Welfare Koppula Eeshwar has reportedly taken a decision for leasing out the lands, extending over 45 acres, excluding the built up area.

Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan asked the universities to come up with vision documents outlining the strategy and roadmap to promote the role of alumni in the development of universities.
Emphasising on the fact that alumni have a great potential to contribute to the universities, she said that it was high time that the universities take the proactive steps to promote the alumni role. She was reviewing the progress of the “Chancellor Connects Alumni,” initiative launched last year, with the vice-chancellors and the registrars of the universities through a virtual mode.

KCR considering ‘tough men’ with academic and admin credentials for OU and KU
The exercise of appointing the Vice-Chancellors of Telangana universities will be taken up only after Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao meets Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan, sources say.
Though the government has made a beginning in this regard, the exercise will gain momentum only after the meeting where the CM wishes to personally discuss a few issues. The government is considering a possible situation of the Governor returning the appointments file with objections and doesn’t want to land in such a predicament.
