Activists take minister to task

They were irked by ministers vulgar remarks

Ironically BJP and ABVP are from the same parivar and both behaved like sworn rivals.
ABVP activists gheraoed the minister in front of the Aiwan-e-Shahi Guest House, and Assembly speaker Jagadish Shettar, who was travelling in a different car, had a narrow escape.

The students, who were protesting the government’s decision to give more seats  to private managements questioned the minister as to what he was doing when the government took the ‘anti-student decision.’

To this, the minister is said to have made vulgar remarks, much to the shock of those who had gathered at the spot.

Following this, the students got agitated. A heated exchange of words ensued. The minister was not ready to give a patient hearing to the students belonging to the frontal organisation of the BJP.

The students took the minister to task for his uncivilised behaviour even as the persons accompanying the minister watched the ugly developments mutely.

The students were upset over the government’s decision to allocate five per cent more seats to private management for admission to professional courses and also for increasing the fee.

They wanted both the speaker and the minister to intervene immediately and prevail upon the government to withdraw the decision highly detrimental to the interests of students and parents.
