From a young village boy to a teacher, actor, producer, writer, Member of Parliament, philanthropist, and educationist – it has been three decades of serving my people. Yet, every moment of this enchanting journey remains fresh in my mind.
At heart, I am still that dreamer from Modhugulapalem who followed his father’s footsteps to become an educator. A proud son of a dedicated school headmaster, it humbles me to have continued his legacy, first as a teacher myself and then as the Chairman of the renowned Sree Vidyanikethan Educational Trust (SVET). Since its inception in 1992, the seed of SVET has flourished into a large Kalpavriksha – helping thousands of young learners fulfill their aspirations.
This has led to SVET institutions garnering immense trust and reliance from students, families, and the industry. With this, my long-standing dream of helping the nation’s youth realize their potential is also culminating into a larger vision. It is gratifying to witness years of hard work, commitment, and passion with SVET now transformed into a universe of possibilities at Mohan Babu University in Tirupati.
Established by The Andhra Pradesh State Legislative Assembly as a state-private university, Mohan Babu University traces its origins to Sree Vidyanikethan Engineering College.

Ranked in the 201-300 band of NIRF Rankings and the 51-100 band for NIRF Innovation Ranking, it has also secured the coveted Diamond band in the QS-IGauge. Its academic prowess is further validated by NAAC A+ and NBA accreditations, along with a platinum category distinction in the AICTE-CII survey. Remarkably, the university has emerged among the top 20 in the 2023 SII Green Rankings, showcasing its commitment to sustainability. These achievements solidify Mohan Babu University’s position as a trailblazer in higher education, dedicated to academic excellence, innovation, and environmental stewardship.
