The Central government swung into damage control mode as the suicide of Dalit student Rohith Vemula, research scholar at the University of Hyderabad (UoH), became a raging political controversy on Wednesday. The government and in fact the BJP too appeared anxious to divorce the death from any caste angle, a politically precarious situation for the party.

Union Minister for Human Resource Development (HRD) Smriti Irani, whose Ministry sent at least four reminders to the Vice-Chancellor of UoH on the clash between five students of the Ambedkar Students Association (ASA) and the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) termed as malicious the attempt to project it as a caste battle.”
