INDIAN STUDENTS CONTINUE THEIR PROTEST ACTION IN CONNECTION WITH
TRAGICAL DEATH OF THEIR COMRADE

Yerevan, April 22. ArmInfo. Today the Indian students of Armenia
continued the protest action they started Apr 20 following the tragic
death of their comrade, 20-year-old student Prashant Anchalia. They
reiterated their demand for the resignation of the rector of Yerevan
State Medical University Gohar Kyalyan.

This time the students are indignant at Kyalyan’s interview to the
Haykakan Zhamanak daily, in which she called the Indians “a lying Gypsy
nation.” They are also indignant at the interview of the university
administration, who said that during a meeting with the university
rector Indian students gave her the finger. They insist that it was
Kyalyan who gave them the finger in response to their demand for
her resignation.

To be reminded, the protests of Indian students were caused by the
tragic death of their 20 year-old fellow. He died of falling down
from the 6-th floor of the Zeytun dormitory. The Indian students
were irritated with the fact that the ambulance car arrived too late
and was not properly equipped to show first aid. Meanwhile head of
‘Ambulance’ CJSC Artem Petrosian assures that the car arrived in
14 minutes after receiving the emergency call. The Indians were
also irritated with the indifference of the police and head of the
international department of their university, who took mo measures to
save the life of the student. Most of all the Indians were offended
of the behavior of G. Kyalyan, rector of the Medical University. In
connection with the death of the student a criminal case is roused
