**Auditorium Collapse Sparks Corruption Allegations at JNTU-Gurajada**

**VIZIANAGARAM, August 31, 2025** – The Uttarandhra Ambedkarites Association is demanding a high-level government inquiry into the collapse of an auditorium and the generally dilapidated condition of hostels and buildings at JNTU-Gurajada in Vizianagaram.

Association president Pandranki Venkata Ramana submitted a memorandum to Joint Collector Sedhu Madhavan on Sunday, outlining allegations of widespread corruption in the construction process. According to Ramana, substandard materials were used in building the auditorium and other structures, leading to their rapid deterioration and, in the case of the auditorium, its outright collapse.

“Hundreds of students are suffering due to the poor maintenance and lack of basic facilities,” Ramana stated. “The government must hold accountable both university officials and contractors responsible for these shoddy structures. The collapse represents a clear and present danger to the students’ safety.”

The Association is urging swift action to address the alleged corruption and ensure the safety and well-being of the students at JNTU-Gurajada.
