Former Chief Minister Ajit Jogi on Thursday urged United Progressive Alliance (UPA) Chairperson Sonia Gandhi to impose President's rule in Chhattisgarh while alleging that the Raman Singh government had miserably failed to contain the naxal violence.
Offering his condolence to the bereaved families of the 27 CRPF martyrs who fell prey to naxal bullets in the Narayanpur massacre, Jogi said, “The state's anti-naxal policy needs to be completely overhauled with the imposition of President's rule till normalcy is restored in the region.”
He urged all the 11 ruling BJP legislators of naxal-affected Bastar region to exert pressure on the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) high command to take effective steps for early resolution of the naxal problem.
The legislators of the regions should also come forward with a concrete plan for reopening of all educational institutions which were closed down during the last 5-6 years and to provide health care and potable drinking water to the people of Bastar, he said.

‘Pt RSU V-C not giving appointment to students’
Raipur, July 01, 2010
The Vice-Chancellor of Pt Ravishankar Shukla University (RSU) Prof SK Pandey is deliberately not giving appointment to the students due to which those who are coming from distant places with their complaints and demands could not understand whom to contact in the varsity campus. The allegation was leveled by the National Students’ Union of India (NSUI) who demanded from Pandey to simply the process of taking appointment to meet him.
The NSUI state president Sanjeev Shukla informed that about 40 girls from different colleges of Bagbahra, Pithora, Gariyaband, Dongargarh and Nayapara-Rajim arrived in the capital to meet Pandey pertaining to their exam results on June 29, 2010, but they were denied permission by the varsity administration.
When the girls did not get receive any response from Pandey till July 1, 2010, they sought help from Shukla who along with other NSUI members on Thursday reached the varsity campus and shouted slogans against university administration and demanded to allow girls to meet the Vice-Chancellor.
It was only after an hour when the police administration intervened, the varsity administration permitted the girls to meet Pandey.
Mocking the process of appointment with the Vice-Chancellor, Shukla said Pandey should instead heed to the problems of every student, especially those who come from distant places.
Notably, if a student would wish to meet the Vice-Chancellor, he would have to obtain pass from Students’ Welfare Officer (SWO) who would first demand written application from the particular student’s college principal. The application is then tabled in the meeting during which it is decided whether the student should be allowed to meet the Vice-Chancellor or not.
