Rohith Vemula’s mother Radhika Vemula met Telangana Chief Minister, A Revanth Reddy, on Saturday and urged him to see that justice is done to the family. Reddy assured her that a fair investigation would be conducted again into the University of Hyderabad student’s suicide in 2016 and that justice would be done, an official release said. Police have filed a closure report before a local court in its probe regarding Vemula’s case, who died by suicide, fearing the disclosure of his actual caste.
“We have opposed the closure report submitted by the police. We also raised concerns regarding the issues they have mentioned in the report,” he said, adding that the competent authority to clarify the caste status is the district Collector of Guntur in the neighbouring Andhra Pradesh and not the police.
