ProfessorJayashankar Telangana State Agricultural University (PJTSAU) Vice-Chancellor Professor Aldas Janaiah on Tuesday wrote a letter to the State Director General of Police to conduct a thorough probe into the sexual harassment allegations levelled against him.

A PJTSAU official communication on Tuesday claimed that certain disgruntled elements, unable to tolerate the systemic overhaul and the pace of reforms implemented at Professor Jayashankar Telangana State Agricultural University (PJTSAU) over the past two years, have hatched a conspiracy. Using routine administrative transfers as a pretext, they are levelling false allegations to tarnish Vice-Chancellor Professor Aldas Janaiah’s personal reputation.

Vice-Chancellor Professor Aldas Janaiah has filed an official complaint directly with the State Director General of Police (DGP), requesting a thorough investigation into this malicious conspiracy to uncover the truth.

Professor Janaiah has requested the Director General of Police (DGP) to uncover the truth behind the allegations made by the female professor and to identify the actual masterminds behind this conspiracy: In his complaint, the VC urged a thorough examination of all digital evidence, including WhatsApp chats and call histories--between the faculty member in question and himself over the past few months.

“An inquiry into this matter would not only expose the lies of the teacher in question but also uncover the role of the conspiratorial forces operating behind the scenes, stripping away their criminal masks.” He also said that, while he trusts the truth will ultimately prevail, and the law will take its due course, he has strongly urged the police to respond immediately to this malicious conspiracy and conduct a comprehensive investigation.

The VC contended that reforms have become a source of resentment and a smear campaign launched under the guise of administrative transfers!. Adding, the university highlighted that for the past two years, Professor Aldas Janaiah has worked tirelessly to prepare the university for the challenges of 2047 and ensure the delivery of the best possible services to the farming community.

“As part of administrative adjustments, a female faculty member, who had been working at the College of Food Science and Technology in Rudrur, Nizamabad district, for the last 12 years—was transferred to Hyderabad.

“This routine transfer was carried out under established regulations on September 11, 2026. However, “unable to accept this routine transfer, the faculty member, driven by a malicious intent to incite unrest within the institution, colluded with certain self-serving elements to orchestrate a calculated conspiracy.”

The VC termed the allegations baseless, and the allegations levelled against him by the female faculty member in the press meet on November 7 as fabricated, malicious, and defamatory. He also questioned the “faculty member’s “claim to have faced harassment between January and June of this year (2026). “Her silence for nearly 11 months--without filing a single complaint during that period--exposes the hollowness of her allegations. This entire drama appears to have been orchestrated solely out of a vendetta stemming from a transfer.”
