TIL Desk/ #NewDelhi– The body of Muthukrishnanan, known also as #RajiniKrish, was found hanging at a friend’s house near Jawaharlal Nehru University (#JNU) – where he had just enrolled for an #MPhil.
====
“Saket, national media coordinator of the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad, said Rajini had played holi on campus and left in the afternoon with his friends. JNU has not issued any official statement yet. #UmarKhalid, a PhD student at JNU who is part of the Bhagat Singh-Ambedkar Students Association, wrote on his Facebook wall, “Our universities are being turned into graveyards for the oppressed.”

JNU failed him, our education system failed him,” #GauravPathania, a researcher with a University College London project on discrimination in Indian higher education, told The Wire. “We live in a society full of oppression which is reproduced in our psychology, minds and behaviour. Instead of giving hope, our education institutions offer a feeling of fear and despair. ”
Rajini had earlier been a student at the #UniversityofHyderabad, where he had taken part in the movement of Dalit students against the suspension of #RohithVemula following a fight with activists of the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad. The #ABVP had accused Rohith and other #Dalitstudents of being “anti-national” for objecting to the imposition of the death penalty on Yakub Memon.
