About Osmania University
Osmania University is named after its founder, Nawab Osman Ali Khan, the seventh Nizam of Hyderabad, who through a farman or Royal Charter brought the University into existence in 1917.
It is the seventh oldest university in the country and the third oldest in South India. Though the need for a university for the Hyderabad State was felt by both the intelligentsia and the people for a long time, the initiative came from a civil servant, Sir Akbar Hydari, who was then the Home Secretary to the State Government.
