BJP plans to raise exam results issue with Rajnath Singh

BJP's Telangana president K Laxman Saturday said the party plans to meet Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh and others in Delhi over the alleged goof-up in the declaration of intermediate exam results.

Laxman had called off his indefinite fast on the issue Friday following an appeal from BJP president Amit Shah and Union Minister of State for Home Hansraj Ahir.

Laxman was discharged from Nizam's Institute of Medical Sciences (NIMS) Saturday.

He was shifted to the NIMS on April 29, hours after he launched the fast and continued his fast in the hospital.

The state party unit intends to move ahead by preparing an actionplan - consoling parents of deceased students, giving confidence to parents, meeting Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh in Delhi and also the President, he told reporters here.

The party also plans to meet the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) over the alleged police detention of BJP workers and how force was allegedly used to 'suppress' the agitation by students and organisations like the ABVP, he said.

Though the stir started by BJP against the alleged injustice to the students has been on since April 15, there was no response from the government as it was 'dictatorial and autocratic', Laxman alleged.

Asserting that BJP would stand by the students, he appealed to them not to take the extreme step.

He hit out at TRS working president K T Rama Rao over his comments that the opposition parties was involved in "cheap politics."
