Hyderabad: The Osmania University police have initiated legal action against Manne Krishank, a leader of the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS), for allegedly spreading misinformation regarding the closure of university hostels and mess facilities at OU. Chief warden G Srinivas lodged a complaint, asserting that a falsified notice circulating on social media falsely claimed the shutdown of these amenities, thereby damaging the university’s reputation. Srinivas appealed to the police to curb the dissemination of the fabricated message and take appropriate measures against Manne Krishank for propagating false information. Sub Inspector Y Kashaiah from the OU police station responded to the complaint by filing a case against Manne Krishank under various sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), including 466, 468, 469, and 505 (1) (c). Ongoing investigations are underway concerning this matter.
Additionally, Krishank refuted a post by Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy regarding electricity and water shortages at OU in 2023, branding it as “fake.” On Tuesday, April 30, he shared the purported “original” notice, which reportedly contained no reference to any shortages in 2023.
“Shame that @revanth_anumula has tweeted a Fake Circular created by Gandhi Bhavan. This is original circular 12th May 2023 regarding Summer Vacation for Osmania University In 2023 power cut, water shortage was not mentioned… See the original circular & Fake one released by CM Revanth,” he said in the post on X.
Following the filing of a police FIR against him, Krishank alleged that the chief warden’s case against him was a result of “pressure from the Congress Party.”
“Under pressure from Congress, Chief Warden of OU has filed a Police Case which makes it 6th Case on me in 4 months of Congress Government. I’ve posted exactly the circular released on 12th May 2023. It is CM Revanth who has posted a Fake Circular. I will surely fight back in Court !” he said, on X.
