Oppn continues stir over bungling of intermediate exam results

Congress, BJP and other opposition parties in Telangana continued their protests Wednesday against the alleged errors in declaration of intermediate examination results that had led to suicide of some students.

Hitting out at the opposition, the ruling TRS working president K T Rama Rao accused them of politicising the issue concerning students and appealed to the students not to take the extreme step.

Taking exception to opposition parties making allegations of corruption linking him to a private firm, he said he would have to go to court and file a defamation suit against those making baseless allegations.

State BJP president K Laxman, who has been shifted by the police to a state-run hospital hours after launching an indefinite fast on April 29, continued his fast in the hospital for the third day.

Intensifying its protests, BJP has called for a state-wide bandh Thursday.
