HCU Erupts: Plan to attack Unsuspecting protesting Students? Hydearabad Central University (HCU) Campus errupted with brute violence today, March 22, 2016 when unsuspecting students protesting the resumption of duties of Vice Chancellor Appa Rao were set upon by helmet adorned, lathi wielding police and also some members allegedly of the life sciences students and faculty. Late in the evening Sabrangindia spoke to some students who were still nursing injuries. At least 20 students had been held at the police station and another 20 were nursing injuries at the Health Centre. A simple peaceful protest against a Vice Chancellor perceived widely to be the callous of Rohith Vemula's suicide on January 17, 2016 was thus sought to be brutally silenced. . Two faculty members, who were backing the students, were taken into custody. At the time of publishing, Sabrangindia was told by some students that a total 36 persons have been detained, two of which are faculty, the rest students. Dr KY Ratnam and Tattaghatta Sengupta are the names of the faculty member illegally detained. Apart from that there are 34 students. The Telanagana police is reportedly changing police stations of the detainees making it impossible to track the condition of the students and faculties detained. __________ Peoples Media Advocacy & Resource Centre- PMARC has been initiated with the support from group of senior journalists, social activists, academics and intellectuals from Dalit and civil society to advocate and facilitate Dalits issues in the mainstream media.
