All opposition parties in the state had opposed that decision calling it as detrimental to Telugu language. Now YSRCP government's decision to change 'Telugu Akademi' as 'Telugu and Sanskrit Akademi' is also likely to lead to another controversy.Jana Sena Party Chief Pawan Kalyan questioned what is the benefit of changing the name of Akademi. In a statement, he said that the government's decision is disappointing to Telugu language lovers. "Why the name is changed all of a sudden and in a hurry?" he questioned."The name change is such that the identity and basic purpose of the Akademi itself is disturbed. If the government wants to develop Sanskrit, it would have formed Sanskrit Akademi separately," he suggested.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
