Addressing the protesters, research scholar Raghu said there is no meaning in terming someone as traitor who speaks about Ambedkar. Even when a movement is initiated in the name of caste, there will be a motto to eliminate the caste system and unite people, he added.

Those who celebrate the death of Rohith Vemula are not real citizens of the country. There is no right for police or for the government to kill people, he said.

Universities should propagate rational thoughts, he said.

Raghu said it is unfortunate that no voice is raised against the atrocity on students and lower group staff in the university. Also, there is a lack of basic amenities in the university. The movement related to the death of Rohith Vemula should also address these problems, he observed.

SFI district secretary Charan said no steps have been taken to solve the problems of students in universities. The moves of Union Minister for Human Resource Development Smriti Irani have been discouraging students like Rohith Vemula, he claimed.

He said that the fee in Mangalore University is more when compared to other autonomous colleges and sough the restructuring of fee.

Research student Harish, SFI district President Hamza Kinya and others were present.

The research scholars in all universities of the State staged protest on the day.

Bengaluru, Jul 25: Kalmane Kamegowda, the lake man who was recently praised by Prime Minister Narendra Modi during a recent Mann Ki Baat, is in serious condition after he tested positive for COVID-19, former Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy said on Saturday.

"The health condition of Lake Kamegowda is serious. It is our responsibility to save him. I demand that the state government make appropriate arrangements for emergency treatment," Kumaraswamy tweeted.

"The Prime Minister also praised him in Mann Ki Baat. Chief Ministers expressed appreciation. Only praising doesn't help him at this point of time. The government needs to come forward to treat him in a good hospital when he's sick," he said in the following tweet.

Kamegowda of Dasanadoddi village in Malavalli taluk had drawn the attention of the Prime Minister in the 66th 'Mann Ki Baat' for constructing ponds to conserve rainwater during the summer.

Responding to Kumaraswamy's remark, State Medical Education Minister Dr Sudhakar K said that he has already called up the Mandya Medical College and directed the hospital to admit and treat Kamegowda.

"As soon as I noticed the seriousness of Kamagowad's health, I called the director of the Mandya Medical College and informed him that he should be admitted to the hospital and treated. I pray to the Lord that the Kamagowadas who inspire the whole country will heal soon," Sudhakar K tweeted.
