Left groups call for Telangana bandh
National Students’ Union of India (NSUI) in Telangana, along with several Left-affiliated student organisations called for a statewide bandh of educational institutions on July 24 to protest the alleged use of force against students in Delhi and the central government’s handling of the education sector.
NSUI Telangana state president Yadavalli Venkataswamy told reporters that the bandh, called jointly with the Students’ Federation of India (SFI), the All-India Students’ Federation (AISF), the Progressive Democratic Students’ Union (PDSU) and other Left student outfits, was being organised in solidarity with students protesting nationwide and in support of Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi.
NSUI Telangana has placed four demands before the central government. These are the immediate resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, the abolition of the National Testing Agency (NTA), strict action against those responsible for the alleged lathi charge on students in Delhi and protection of students’ right to peaceful protest.
