BJP today hits out at Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi accusing him of playing politics over Rohith Vemula’s suicide in Hyderabad Central University. Briefing media in Delhi, party spokesperson Sambit Patra accused Mr Gandhi of being selective on Dalit issues and asked to stop playing politics over dead bodies. Mr Patra also asked why Mr Gandhi took no notice when nine Dalit students killed themselves in the past ten years in the same university. He questioned the need for the Congress leader to act as a judge when a judicial process is on. He said it is a classic case of trying to buy political brownie points.
