B V Raghavulu completed his schooling at Kandukuru. Later, he joined Andhra Christian College in Guntur for intermediate standard. Then, he went to Bapatla and joined into Bachelor of Science at Bapatla Agricultural College. For various reasons, he was compelled to drop out of the course.
Afterwards, he joined Kavali College for Bachelor of Arts course. When he was pursuing his final year course of graduation, emergency was declared in the country. Finally, after appearing the final examinations, he left for Nellore as a fulltime activist of the party. During the emergency period, many top leaders of the party were either arrested or went underground themselves. This gave an opportunity to Raghavulu to manage the party office at his best.
