Rupanwala Commission report is false: DSU

Karimnagar: The representatives of student unions - Democratic Student Union (DSU) and Peoples Democratic Student Union (PDSU) - alleged that the Justice Rupanwala Commission had submitted false report to save the murderers of Rohit Vemula, the Hyderabad Central University student.

They burnt the papers of the report submitted by the Commission here in the premises of Satavahana University on
Thursday.

Speaking on the occasion, DSU district in-charge Janardhan said that the Rupanwala Commission had been appointed to find out the murderers of Vemula Rohit.

But the Commission instead of finding out the real culprits, had submitted the report mentioning that Vemula Rohit belongs to Backward Caste and committed suicide due to personal problems. To save the real culprits, the Justice Rupanwala Commission had submitted the false report.

Why the Commission did not submit the report all these days? What is the reason behind hiding the report till date? he questioned.

Only to divert the case, the Commission mentioned that Rohit Vemula belongs to BC but the National SC Commission already declared that Rohit belongs to Scheduled Caste, he alleged.

He demanded the government arresting of the Central Ministers Bandaru Dattatriya and Smitha Irani along with Vice-Chancellor Appa Rao and MLC Ramchandra Rao, who were reportedly responsible for the death of Rohit Vemula.

The representatives of DSU and PDSU Vinod, Prakash, Sai, Vishal, Raju and Uday were present along with others.
