Federation (TNSF) leaders' release from jail, Lokesh visited Guntur to formally welcome these leaders

leaders for courageously fighting for the cause of PG students, who have been denied their fee reimbursement

Penal Code.Lokesh expressed concern that over three lakh students belonging to weaker sections and backward classes have been badly hit
because of GO 77, as it denied fee reimbursement to PG students studying in private colleges

face a state-wide agitation.
