TTD Chairman YV Subba Reddy submits a letter to Union Education Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal in this regard

Amaravati: Tirumala Tirupati Devastanams (TTD) chairman YV Subba Reddy requested Union Education Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal that Sri Venkateswara Vedic University should be recognised as the Central Vedic University. He submitted a letter to Ramesh Pokhriyal on Wednesday.

Sri Venkateswara Vedic University is a State university located in Tirupati. It was established in 2006 by the Government of Andhra Pradesh, sponsored by the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD), and concentrates on Vedic studies. In 2007, the UGC recognised it as a State university.

He said that the university is offering many courses from degree to Phd. He further added that the main aim of the university is to protect the Sanathana Dharma and the TTD is also funding 80 gurukulas.

He asserted that the TTD is helping out those who have studied Vedic sciences and is providing financial aid through various schemes. Since 14 years, the TTD is sponsoring the university and UGC has given 2F recognition and urged the Central Minister to take measures to accredit the university with the 12 B category.

He said that the Centre has given national accreditation to three universities and now if it gives to S V University then it will become the first university to be accredited with national status.

Subba Reddy submitted another letter to the Minister to renew the TTD quota in filling the Telugu, Tamil and Sanskrit seats in the Sri Venkateswara College run by TTD in Delhi. He said the quota was in force before 2016, but now the Delhi University is not allowing it. He said that the university was founded by former Vice-President Sarvepalli Radhakrishna in 1961 and the TTD has made this college as one of the most prestigious colleges in Delhi.
