But the management denied permission for the YSRCP when the party had applied for permission to conduct its district plenary in convocation hall.
Amarnath accused that the registrar of Andhra University Prof V Umamaheswawra Rao who told them that he would take a decision only after consulting the minister was acting like a loyal TDP leader.
