Union min, univ VC charged for Dalit student’s suicide“Behind Rohit’s suicide”

How Univ. showed him the doorAgency | Hyderabad

On January 30, Rohith Chakravarthi Vemula would have turned 27. Yester-day, the Dalit research scholar, suspend-ed from Hyderabad Central University over a political dispute, told his friends that since his stipend was on hold, he was unable to give them “even a small treat”. Hours later, he hanged himself. Today, the suicide of the second-year PhD student of Life Sciences inside a hostel room sparked protests across the country and led to an FIR being filed against local BJP MP and Union Minis-ter Bandaru Dattatreya under the SC/ST Act and on charges of abetment to sui-cide. Last August, the minister had writ-ten to the HRD ministry accusing the university of being “a mute spectator” after a group of Dalit students, including Rohith, clashed with an ABVP leader. While the HRD Ministry has decided to

send a fact-finding team to “look into the matter”, spoke to Rohith’s friends and faculty on campus, police and officials to piece together the sequence of events in the run-up to his death. It shows how Rohith was steadily isolated by campus authorities and his appeals — many of them anguished and sometimes cloaked in irony — went largely unheard. The day after, at the mortuary of Osmania Hospital, Rohith’s mother cried out: “I used to proudly tell everyone in my village that my son was doing PhD at Hyderabad University. Today, I have come to collect his dead body.’’ Hailing from Gurazala near Guntur, Rohith’s father Manikumar works as a security guard at a private hospital while mother V Radhika is a tailor — he had an el-der sister and a younger brother. “After the stipend was stopped, his family was struggling to support him.

ing frugally. Almost every day, he used to say that his money was stuck,’’ said Velmula Sankanna, a fellow PhD schol-ar and one of the five suspended. “In December, Rohith wrote an angry letter to the V-C, sarcastically asking him to

provide euthanasia facilities for Dal-it students. Since then, he was scared to go to the administration building and ask about his stipend. He became silent and withdrawn. He said that he was falling into depression because he

was being defeated by the system at every turn. He blamed himself, his caste, and the circumstances around him. He did not take much interest in any-thing except studies,’’ said Sankanna, a close friend. When contact-ed, an official from the V-C’s office said, “His stipend was stuck due to lapses in processing the paperwork. On many oc-casions, the funds arrive late and are disbursed in lump sums,’’ the offi-cial said. In the “suicide note”, Rohith wrote that he was expecting Rs 1.75 lakh in arrears from the university.

QUOTE OF THE

DAYThe government’s new initiative: ‘Start-up India’ is overdue

The government’s new initiative for start-ups promis-es swift approvals for starting enterprises, easier exits, tax and fiscal incentives, faster registration of patents and protection of intellectual property rights. It sig-nals a possible end to the inspector raj that has sapped the energy and spirit of many young entrepreneurs in the country. Unlike India’s large business groups, small entrepreneurs find it difficult to navigate the complex bureaucratic and regulatory maze. From that perspective, these supply-side reforms are welcome. What makes this initiative especially welcome is the fact that start-ups hold the potential of creating more jobs at a time when the manufacturing sector is facing a slump that may last longer given global econom-ic prospects and the slowdown in China, which has been one of the engines of global growth. And with growing automation, the manufacturing sector may no longer be in a position to create jobs. The fact is that there is a fundamental problem of demand and the real challenge for the Indian economy now is to fund several large projects — be it roads, highways or railways. That’s why it is heartening to see the government attempting to provide an enabling poli-cy environment for start-ups, which are job creators much like the large number of self-employed who form a significant part of the country’s labour force. But should the government, which says it wants to be more of a facilitator, get into the funding of start-ups? There has been enough capital chasing start-ups in In-dia, including e-commerce firms, with a predominant share coming from overseas investors, unlike in the US or China, which are ahead of this country in terms of the number of new-age firms. Tax breaks do help, but global experience shows that what is more critical is an enabling regulatory and business environment that will foster innovation and have a cascading im-pact on entrepreneurship. Indian policymakers appear to be grasping this imperative but the funding now on offer could perhaps be directed more towards entre-preneurs who find it tough to raise capital in segments such as food processing, rather than mobile-based applications or e-commerce firms, for whom raising money isn’t a major problem. The government’s ap-proach of targeting start-ups to power growth over the next decade is well judged. But the easing of rules and creation of a conducive policy environment should not be restricted just to start-ups. It should be extend-ed to all businesses. That will be the real test, along with getting more Indian firms domiciled overseas because of rules here to move back. Otherwise, the losers will be the government and local investors.

“A brand ambassador promotes a brand. People will come to India and tourist flow will increase only if the brand ambassador of ‘Incredible India’ promotes the country as ‘incredible’, But if the brand ambassador says India is intolerant, he surely is not working as brand ambassador,”

Sonakshi Sinha on date hunt for ‘Haseena’Agency | Mumbai

Sonakshi Sinha was compelled to come out of her Twitter hiatus to clear the air surrounding her project “Haseena” hitting a roadblock. The actress says she is trying to squeeze out time and dates to shoot for the film. The “Lootera” star, who also has Abhinay Deo’s “Force 2” up her sleeve, took to the micro-blogging site to share the update on the film, which is based on the life of underworld don Dawood Ibrahim’s sister Haseena Parkar. “Just an update on ‘Haseena’, am trying to work out the dates. This film is very special to me and I’m trying my best to clear the date clash. Back on break,” shared Sonakshi, who is essaying the titular character in the Apoorva Lakhia directorial. Several reports suggested that the biopic is facing production issues with a producer and financier yet to come on board. The film will bring alive 40 years of Haseena’s life and is said to be an emotional saga of a woman and what it meant to be Dawood Ibrahim’s sister. Haseena Parkar, the elder sister

of Dawood, died in July last year. She shot to fame after some rival gangsters led by Arun Gawli gunned down her husband Ismail Parkar in a gang war in 1991 which led to a spate of brutal retaliatory killings from the Dawood gang at that time. Subsequently, Haseena was re-

portedly acting as the don’s Mumbai business head. Though officially she was not directly implicated in any underworld activities, it is believed that in parts of south Mumbai, nothing moved without her nod.

Actor Akshay Kumar, who has become one of the biggest stars of Bol-lywood, says his dream was to feature on the hoardings in the country. Recently while shooting for the TV show “Yaar Mera Superstar” he said, “It feels very good to see yourself on the hoarding. It was a dream which I am living now. I still re-member my first hoard-

Mahendra Singh Dhoni doesn’t usually take digs at his fielders but after the third consecutive loss against Australia, the Indi-an captain pointed the fin-ger of blame at them. On a tour where the batsmen have been good but not good enough to produce that extra 30 runs that could make the difference, and his bowlers haven’t shown the imagination and craft required to cope with the flat tracks, Dhoni

would have at least hoped that his young team won’t let him down in the field-ing department. This was supposed to be a the great young team, filled with great fielders but instead, they have let their captain down at crucial junctures. Dhoni didn’t hide his dis-appointment at the end of it all. “Today, I felt on and off the bowling was de-cent. We did let ourselves down with our fielding. The best fielders in our group actually left quite a few deliveries.

England seamer Ste-ven Finn appears likely to miss the fourth Test against South Africa, which starts on Friday in Pretoria, because of a side strain, team officials con-firmed on Monday. Finn felt tightness in his left side during England’s se-ries-clinching victory at the Wanderers and was sent for scans on Sunday, the day after England’s dramatic seven-wicket win put the tourists 2-0 ahead with one Test to play. How-ever, head coach Trevor Bayliss remains pessimis-tic about his chances of playing in the final Test, paving the way for Chris Woakes, Chris Jordan or Mark Footitt to vie for a starting role at Centurion as England target an em-

phatic 3-0 success. “To be honest I doubt very much whether he’ll be available for the next Test,” Bayliss said. “We’ll have to wait and see how bad it is and make a decision on the one-day and Twenty20 se-ries (following the Tests). “But at this stage it looks like we have to make a re-placement there heading into the last Test,” Bayliss added. “That’s unfortunate because I thought he was probably our most dan-gerous bowler in the first two Tests.” Woakes played in the first Test in Durban when England’s record wicket-taker James An-derson sat out with a calf strain while Jordan and un-capped Footitt did not fea-ture in any of the first three matches of the series.

The state government has sought the Centre’s inter-vention in taking ahead the Rs 6,000-crore Tapi River Recharge Irrigation Project which involves the three states of Maharash-tra, Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat. The project, tout-ed as Asia’s biggest water recharge project, is being pursued by Maharashtra to address the water scarcity. The project, to be under-taken by the Tapi Irrigation Development Corporation (TIDC), is being pushed

as a suitable alternative to big dams that would require displacement of villages which is more complicated. This project will emphasise on per-colation of underground water and maximising the use of surplus water, which runs into the Ara-bian Sea to increase water tables in drought-stricken

villages. Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis held a meeting with Union Water Resources Minister Uma Bharti. The Centre has in principle given its consent for the project. However, a meeting between represen-tatives of the three states and the Ministry of Water Resources is expected at the end of this month.
