A probe has been ordered into the incident of two woman police constables of Cyberabad police riding a motorcycle chasing and pulling down a protesting student by her hair at Prof. Jayashankar Telangana State Agricultural University, Rajendranagar in Hyderabad. The video of the incident, which has gone viral on social media platforms, shows a woman protester of Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad’s (ABVP) state committee being dragged by her hair by two policewomen on a two-wheeler.
The students of the university have been staging a silent protest for about two weeks to oppose the Telangana government’s recent decision to allot 100 acres of the university’s land for the construction of the new Telangana High Court complex. On Wednesday, the students from ABVP’s state committee joined them.
