Wanted to take a peaceful rally today in Tirupathi protesting the non payment of the fee reimbursement of the students by the Govt.... Police have arrived at our home in Tirupathi and looks like they are not going to allow the rally. — Mohan Babu M (@themohanbabu) March 22, 2019 Why is The government not paying the students fee? And the rally I want to is for the students. I don’t gain anything from it. 19 crores have been pending and for what? Why isn’t the government honoring their commitment???? — Mohan Babu M (@themohanbabu) March 22, 2019 Actors Vishnu Manchu and Lakshmi Manchu also came out in support of their father, calling him ‘fearless’ for ‘always fighting for justice of the people’ and that he was a man one who couldn’t mess or be bully. Father has never been a person who can be bullied. He taught us to challenge bullies. Why other college owners are not talking about the fee reimbursement, only they can answer. Either they are scared of the big bullies or in bed with them. — Vishnu Manchu (@iVishnuManchu) March 22, 2019 My fearless nana. Always fighting for justice of the people. Mohanbabu na maazaka!!
