The student body said starting tomorrow seminars, meetings, open debates would be organised in colleges, universities and educational institutions across the country over the issue.<br/><br/>National general secretary of the student body Vinay Bidre alleged that there are some forces in the University, who support people like Yakub Memon. He added, there are some faculty members of the university supporting them. He demanded a thorough inquiry into this issue. Bidre said, ABVP's prime motto is that justice has to be done to Rohith's family members.
