The RSS and families of the two students, who died in a clash with police in North Dinajpur district over teachers recruitment in a high school, Saturday demanded a CBI inquiry into the incident.
Locals have alleged that the two, who were former students of the school, were killed in police firing but the superintendent of police of North Dinajpur, Sumit Kumar had said the police did not open fire.
The SP had, however, admitted that the students had received bullet injuries and had said the police were investigating who had opened fire.
The RSS demanded that the state Education Minister Partha Chatterjee apologise for trying to malign the outfit's image.
The parents of Rajesh Sarkar and Tapas Burman, the two students who died in the Thursday's clash, made the demand when CPI-M leaders Sujan Chakraborty and Ashok Bhattacharya met them at their homes at Daribhita village in Islampur area.
The parents said the cremation of the two bodies would be done only after a CBI probe is ordered.

Senior RSS leader Jishnu Basu said the Chatterjee is blaming RSS for this unfortunate incident.
"But the fact is RSS in no way is involved in it. He should either prove what he has said or apologise publicly or else we will launch a massive movement," Basu said.
He said, "We demand a CBI inquiry into the incident to bring out the truth. The state government is trying to hide facts."
