It's being reported that
"
A day after celebrating the victory of the TRS-BJP combine in the just-concluded byelections, Osmania University woke up to the shocking death of an engineering graduate on its campus on Saturday.
A B.Tech (electronics and communications) graduate from Scient college at Ibrahimpatnam, P Eshan Reddy, (21) allegedly “sacrificed” himself for the cause of a separate Telangana near the OU library in the wee hours. In a suicide note, purportedly written by him, he said: “I promised to Maisamma Talli (a local deity in Telangana) that if DS (PCC chief D Srinivas) loses (the election), I will sacrifice myself to the Talli. I am proud to do this.’’ Eshan Reddy’s charred body was found on a bushy path adjacent to the library around 6 a.m. In the note, nine Congress and TDP leaders were branded as cheats and the Joint Action Committee of the OU students was asked to either kill or ostracise them.
The note further carried a wish that his body be taken in a procession to the martyrs’ memorial.
Eshan Reddy was a native of Basanthpur village in Nylakal mandal, Medak district.
TRS chief K Chandrasekhara Rao, BJP senior leader Ch Vidyasagar Rao and Telangana Political JAC convenor Prof Kodandaram visited the campus and took part in the procession. Chandrasekhara Rao and Vidyasagar Rao broke down upon seeing the dead body.

Well,this is not the first suicide by a student for the 'separate state of Telengana' agitation and I am afraid,this might not be the last.I have lost count of the number of times I have read about Telengana related suicides.
Has Mr.Chandrasekhara Rao,who is the self-styled champion and the visible face of the 'separate state of Telengana' agitation,made any appeal till now to the student community to avoid taking such drastic measures??
It's just an utter wastage of a valuable human life.Atleast they could have utilised their life for some thing meaningful,say,some service for the Nation.Even taking up the cause of Telengana is perfectly fine,but in a more dignified manner.Not by taking own life,come on...!!!!
Not seen any politician making any such appeal.
May be Mr.Rao, and people like him who are fighting for the seperate state cause,are having the sadistic joy of having more and more martyrs,in whose memorials they can pay tributes annually!!!
Every political party seems obsessed with creating martyrs for their cause..!
What else explains the inexplicable silence of atleast making an appeal to stop this madness.
Let the agitations continue,but why commit suicide??
Does it achieve any purpose??
Will Mr.Rao and others take care of the parents of these students who are trigger happy in taking out lives..
Why don't they look at more meaningful,peaceful options...
Why don't these students who commit suicide,think about their parents?
why do they let their parents endure life-long agony!!
...Fail to Understand...
