The functioning of Potti Sreeramulu Telugu University is likely to come to a standstill if decisions pertaining to admissions are not taken in the next 30 days. The confusion has arisen as the university, which is enlisted under 10th schedule of the Andhra Pradesh Reorganization Act 2014, is yet to release the notification for admissions.
-Even after bifurcation, the issue of admissions into the university could become a bone of contention for both the states as it is the only Telugu university in the then erstwhile combined Andhra Pradesh.

Generally, the admission notification is released in May every year, but nothing was done in this regard as on Thursday as the executive committee was yet to take a call. As per the Reorganization Act, the university would remain with Telangana. Though Telangana government decided to rename the varsity as Suravaram Pratap Reddy Telugu University, it has been kept on the back-burner for quite some time.
The university was established to function as a central organization for teaching and research in language and literature, history and culture, fine arts and performing arts, religion and philosophy of the Telugu speaking people. In a recent move, the State government has appointed former vice chancellor E Siva Reddy as the in-charge VC.
Even after bifurcation, the issue of admissions into the university could become a bone of contention for both the states as it is the only Telugu university in the then erstwhile combined Andhra Pradesh. The university has a sanctioned strength of 115 teachers, out of which 65 posts are vacant. On the other hand, the sanctioned non-teaching posts are 70, out of which 20 are vacant. Among the teaching staff, only 24 belong to Telangana and 26 belong to Andhra Pradesh.
The division of employees could also result in friction between both the States. There are five campuses of Telugu University, namely Lalita Kalathoranam in Hyderabad, Nannaya Pranganam in Rajahmundry, Palkuriki Somanatha Pranganam in Srisailam, Potana Pranganam in Warangal and Shri Siddhendra Yogi Pranganam in Kuchipudi (Krishna district). Strangely, the future of these affiliates is also unclear.
