A tense situation prevailed near Gandhi Hospital in Seunderabad on Tuesday where Sai Kumar, a second year engineering student of Osmania University, died while undergoing treatment. Allegedly disappointed over the delay in the formation of Telangana, Sai Kumar was stated to have made a suicide attempt by hanging himself in his hostel room today morning.
Students, who gathered at the hospital premises, wanted to take Sai Kumar's body in a procession to the Osmania University. They got agitated when police did not allow them to take out a procession.
Meanwhile, the Telangana Joint Action Committee staged a dharna before the Board of Intermediate demanding answersheets of students from Telangana who write the examinations starting Wednesday be corrected only by those hailing from the region.
