BRS MLA demands action
BRS leader K. Kavita has condemned the incident and urged the Human Rights Commission to take prompt and strict action against those involved. The MLC posted on Twitter, “The recent incident involving the Telangana Police is extremely worrying and absolutely unacceptable. Dragging a peaceful student protestor and subjecting the protestor to indecent assault raises serious questions on the need for such aggressive tactics by the police. Such arrogant behaviour. Telangana Police should tender an unconditional apology for this.”
Another BRS leader Dasoju Shravan has condemned the police brutality against the protesting student. He said that it is wrong to construct a High Court on the university land. He said that the government forcibly snatched the university land to build the High Court building to promote real estate business. They warned that the move would destroy the environment and biodiversity and threaten the existence of rare species of birds and plants.
