TJAC to rope in local students for T-march
Tags:
The Telangana Joint Action Committee is reworking its strategy to mobilise students for the Telangana march it has planned to hold on September 30. Its plan to mobilise students from Telangana districts has been badly affected due to heavy police restrictions on their entry into the city. The TJAC is now stepping up efforts to mobilise large numbers of students from junior, degree and PG colleges located in the city. TJAC leaders believe “student power” will play a decisive role in making the march a success. The aggr-essiveness exhibited by students can’t be expected fr-om other sections of people.
The TJAC was expecting a good turnout of students from Warangal, Karimna-gar, Medak, Nalgonda and Nizamabad districts. The police has pre-empted this by curbing the entry of people from other districts into the city by setting up check posts on the city’s borders. Vehicles, private and public, are being thoroughly checked. Young people are being sent back and only older people are being allowed to enter the city.
The Osmania University campus, the hot-bed of the agitation, and other university campuses such as JNTU-Hyderabad and Agri-culture University and others in the Telangana region have been cordoned off, making it difficult to mob-ilise students from there. The TJAC has entrusted the responsibility of mobilising students from within the city to local joint action committees that are visiting colleges and seeking the support of their managem-ents to encourage students to take part in the march. Students played a crucial role in the success of the ‘Million March’ last year. They managed to breach the security cordon and gai-ned entry to the Tank Bund.
