Investigation by local police is not satisfactory: H. Raja
Senior BJP leader and former MLA H.Raja on Saturday demanded that investigation into the death of a school girl from Ariyalur, who was an inmate of a hostel in Thanjavur district, be handed over to the Central Bureau of Investigation.
Talking to reporters here after leading a demonstration organised by the BJP seeking justice for the school girl, who ended her life, Mr. Raja said the manner in which the local police was investigating the case was not satisfactory. Attempts to lure people into religious conversion with offers of free education could not be allowed anymore, he maintained.
Works are under way to establish smart classrooms equipped with broadband connectivity in as many as 20,000 panchayat union primary schools and to establish hi-tech laboratories with similar Internet connectivity in 6,992 panchayat union primary schools across Tamil Nadu, the Director of Elementary Education (DEE) has informed the Madras High Court.
