Students should stop committing suicides in support of Telangana and instead pressurise political parties to take up the issue seriously with the Central government, said B. Satyanarayana, president, Osmania University Teachers Association (OUTA) on Friday.

He said till date over 700 students had committed suicide for Telangana having lost confidence in political parties.

Mr. Satyanarayana advised youth to desist from taking the extreme step as the issue is political and cited the example of different agitations where no person committed suicide but fought hard to achieve their goals.
