However, members of some students' groups and other organisations had stated that they will obstruct the event, accusing the TRS government of not doing enough to provide jobs to the youth. One of the protesters openly carried a petrol bottle on the campus, claiming that he would immolate himself. The man along with 13 others were taken into preventive custody, police said.

In the past, the university was an important centre for the agitation to create a separate Telangana state.
