The new hostel is constructed in the place where an old building used to exist.”

 

 

MLA Vedavyas Kamath said, “The foundation stone for this building was laid during my last term. The building worth Rs 10 crore is inaugurated today. There was a need of a new hostel building as the old building was in a dilapidated state. Kudmul Ranga Rao’s contribution towards education should always be remembered. His works should be made known to the public.”
