The Kerala State Human Rights Commission (SHRC) has sought an impartial and independent probe, either by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) or a judicial commission, into the stabbing of a student by others at University College, Thiruvananthapuram, and the alleged stocking of answer scripts of the University of Kerala at the students’ union office there. Commission judicial member P. Mohanadas told the media here on Wednesday that government-level action was required to implement the Kerala High Court order that banned campus politics. “This calls for an investigation either by an independent agency such as the CBI or a judicial commission,” he said. Mr. Mohanadas directed the Kallada group to remove staff with criminal backgrounds from the buses run by it. A copy of the order was sent to the Deputy Director of Education, Kozhikode, too.
