Trailblazing Osmania: The 99-year-old university
On Saturday, the Osmania University College of Arts and Social Sciences, better known as Arts College, was a sight to behold. Nearly 90 people — students, historians, and people from various walks of life gathered to commemorate the centenary year of the Osmania University which was established in 1918.
A heritage walk was organised by INTACH’s Anuradha Reddy, an eminent historian from the city, in collaboration with Hyderabad Trails.
From discussing the secular structure of the Arts College building to appreciating the clever architecture of the hallway at the University library, it was a bouquet of knowledge for those who came seeking.
More than an hour each was spent in exploring the various college buildings — Arts, Science and Engineering blocks. The Vision of Osmania room in the library was more of a museum that garnered the most interest.
