Former Vice-Chancellor of Acharya Nagarjuna University V. Balamohan Das said that the management of AU under the leadership of Prof. Reddy worked together and made AU one of the top three universities in the country in the NAAC rankings.
“A CGPA score of 3.74 is more satisfactory than NAAC A++ grade, as it is very difficult to get such a score and it requires hard, collective and innovative efforts,” said Prof. Das. He said that AU is the only university which has given more number of Vice-Chancellors.
Former AU Vice-Chancellor G.S.N. Raju described AU as a diamond among educational institutions in the country.

Prof. V.S.R.K. Prasad said that the AU management played a crucial role in protecting the valuable lands of the university from encroachments. Prof. Reddy’s courageous efforts made this possible, he said.
