Oct 16, 2023
Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], October 16 : A delegation of Telangana Bharatiya Janata Party Mahila Morcha on Monday met state Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan and submitted a memorandum to her over the death of student Pravallika.
On Saturday, 25-year-old Pravallika allegedly died by suicide due to the postponement of the Telangana State Public Service Commission (TSPSC) exam notification.
Speaking to ANI, her brother claimed that the girl fell into depression after the exams were postponed.
Telangana BJP Mahila Morcha state president Geetha Murthy while speaking to ANI, said that Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao and state Education Minister Sabitha Indra Reddy are not taking any decision in the matter.
"There are many atrocities on women. A student named Pravallika committed suicide because of the delay in the Group-1 exam notifications. The government is not responding to it. The education minister or the Chief Minister is not taking any decisions or giving any notifications. However, they are trying to turn it on the character of the victim. They are also doing lathi charge on the youth who are coming in the support of the victim. It is a grave injustice."
Murthy said that the Bharat Rashtriya Samithi (BRS) government should give a government job to a family member of the victim.
"The Chief Minister should take complete responsibility for this. The government should give a government job to a family member of the victim. We have met the Governor in this regard. The Governor has given us a positive response. She stated that she would enquire into this and aid the victim's family," Murthy added.
