HRD Ministry rejects RTI over info on Rohith Vemula’s death
The HRD Ministry has rejected an RTI query for making public a panel’s report on the death of research scholar Rohith Vemula in the Hyderabad University. The ministry said the file concerned was “under submission” and its copy cannot be provided. The ministry had in February 2016 appointed a commission to look into the events that led to Vemula's suicide.
