More than 800 students of the Rajiv Gandhi University on Thursday signed an online petition calling upon the State government for a fair and independent inquiry into the death of former Doimukh MLA Ngurang Pinch, who died under mysterious circumstances on November 18 last year.
RGU faculties, staffs, students and school children have all put their names to the campaign- ‘Justice for Ngurang Pinch’.

JNU research scholar and daughter of Late Pinch, Ngurang Reena said that the primary motive behind the signature campaign was to demand for a CBI investigation into her father’s unusual demise.
My father’s death is not an exclusive one, certainly not; I am not claiming any ‘VIP treatment’ to the case but rather I am disgusted and furious at the plight of my state and speak for all those at the receiving end of this corrupt system, Reena said in her petition.
The minimum required signatures is 10k; with today’s camp we have almost reached 8k and we hope to sweep the target with tomorrow’s camp that is being set up at Dera Natung Government College in Itanagar, she said.
