3 college buses were completely reduced to ashes and 1 partially damaged when unidentified miscreants set fire to them at Ravindra Colony in Habsiguda in the wee hours of Thursday.
According to Osmania University police, the miscreants allegedly set fire to buses which were parked on the roadside by sprinkling petrol on them.
The buses belonged to Adusumilli Vijaya Group of Engineering Colleges in the city.
The police said that they are interrogating one person in connection with the arson attack. He has been identified as one Suman. Osmania University police has registered a case in this connection.
However, the college management has not filed a case so far in this connection.
According to sources, the police has advised the bus-owners not to park their vehicles, particularly at night, in the wake of the volatile situation in the capital. However, the police refused to comment on if the arson attack is in any way connected to the ongoing Telangana agitation.
