Dalit groups in Kerala demand ₹10 crore compensation and strict action after the death of BDS student Nithin Raj at Kannur Dental College. Alleging “institutional murder” due to caste harassment, they seek a High Court-monitored probe and call for a statewide hartal on April 28. Police have booked faculty and arrested loan app operators.
Kannur (Kerala): An action council of several Dalit organisations in Kerala on Tuesday demanded Rs 10 crore compensation from the state government for the family of a first-year BDS student who died after falling from a building at Kannur Dental College in a suspected suicide case.
In a press conference here, the action council also demanded stringent action against faculty members accused of being responsible for the death of the student, Nithin Raj (22), a first-year BDS student at the private dental college in Anjarakandy.
Raj was found critically injured after falling from the building on April 10 and later succumbed to his injuries.
The council also called for a statewide hartal in Kerala on April 28 to protest the student’s death, alleging “institutional murder” rather than suicide. It also demanded a High Court-monitored probe into the student’s death.
