Hyderabad University protest ends as SC halts land development

The University of Hyderabad Students' Union (UoHSU) has ended its indefinite protest and boycott of classes. This decision follows the Supreme Court's intervention halting any further development on the 400-acre land parcel bordering the university until further notice.

The protest, which included a boycott of classes, was initiated on April 1 by the UoHSU and several aligned unions, in opposition to the Telangana government's plans to develop the land in Kancha Gachibowli. The students cited concerns over ecological conservation as primary grounds for their protest.

Vice President of UoHSU, Akash Kumar, stated that the students resumed attending classes on Friday after the Supreme Court's stay order was issued on Thursday.

The apex court has asked the Telangana government to justify the "compelling urgency" behind the proposed clearing of tree cover on the contentious land adjoining the university.

In response to the Supreme Court's directive, the Telangana government has formed a committee of ministers tasked with engaging in discussions with the University of Hyderabad's executive committee, civil society groups, students, and other stakeholders.

The aim is to arrive at a resolution pertaining to the disputed land adjacent to the university.

The student body expressed their appreciation for the Supreme Court's ruling.

UoHSU President, Umesh Ambedkar, reiterated the union's commitment to their cause, declaring that they will continue to oppose the proposed land auction until the 400-acre parcel is officially transferred to the university.

Moreover, the student union is advocating for the removal of police personnel from the East Campus, which includes the disputed land, as well as other areas of the campus. This concern has also led to a petition being filed in the High Court, noted Akash Kumar.
