Punia attacks NDA Govt over BHU violence
Varanasi, Nov 23
Senior Congress leader P L
Punia today attacked the NDA
government over the violence
in Banaras Hindu University
(BHU) over the last few days.
"The HRD ministry is responsible for this violent
incident in BHU, along with
the entire BHU administration
which failed to control the
worsening situation in the
university campus," Punia
said.
In an apparent attack at
HRD Minister Smriti Irani, he
said, "Those who didn't appoint the Vice Chancellor of
Banaras Hindu University for
the last two months after the
former VC's term ended, are
responsible for the violence."
Referring to the students'
demand for holding of students' union election, over
which protests were held
leading to clashes with police, Punia said Congress had
favoured it when it was in
power in the previous government. "There is a
recommendation of Lyngdoh
committee to hold students
union election but BHU violated this by not holding the
students union election and
instead going ahead with a
students council elections.
