Classic politics of vulturisation: BJP on Rahul’s visit to HCU

“Everyone know what the condition in Malda is, has Rahul Gandhi ever visited Malda”, he asked.

Earlier, Union minister Venkaiah Naidu termed Rahul Gandhi’s protest a part of Congress’s anti-Modi campaign.

Speaking on the issue, ABVP national executive member Kadiam Raju said, “ABVP strongly opposes the politicisation being done by Rahul Gandhi in Central University at a time, when peaceful atmosphere is returning in the university”.

“I fail to understand as to why is Rahul Gandhi acting as a judge?”

“Here, the issue is very complicated, because we don’t know what the suicide note is actually meant for”, he added.

Rahul, who is presently at the University on a hunger strike with the rest of the protesting students, was joined by Rohith’s mother as he interacted with the four students who were expelled along with the Dalit scholar.

Meanwhile, Congress dismissed the charge made by BJP on Rahul Gandhi and said that there is no politics in Congress vice-president’s visit to the Hyderabad University. One can’t help but say, grow up, Rahul!

“It is a classic case of trying to buy some political brownie points out of a tragedy”. He has always shunned his responsibilities and gatecrashed into protests of others. “Whatever demands of (agitating students)…most of the demands…whatever we (HCU) can accept without any problems, we will accept”, he said.

“The ministry has appointed Justice Roopanwal to probe the circumstances leading to the Dalit student’s suicide in Hyderabad”, said an official of the human resource development ministry.

“Rohith left a suicide note expressing certain views”.

Mr Srivastava, the senior most professor at the university, was performing the duties after Vice-Chancellor Professor P Appa Rao, named in the police complaint in Rohith Vemula’s death, went on an indefinite leave on Sunday.

Apart from this, security has also been tightened in wake of Rahul’s visit to the state.
