Super Question Hour: Union Min booked over suicide of Dalit student

Union Labour Minister Bandaru Dattatreya and Hyderabad University Vice Chancellor were named in an FIR over the alleged suicide of a dalit student, triggering massive protests and demands for their removal from their posts. The issue also took a political turn with allegations that the extreme action was a result of discrimination against dalit students at the behest of Dattatreya, who had written a letter to HRD Minister Smriti Irani, seeking action against their anti-national acts.
