New Delhi, Feb 23 (IBNS): Joining students, who are demonstrating in the national capital to demand justice for Dalit scholar Rohith Vemula and JNU student leader Kanhaiya Kumar, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday said the people of the country are not satisfied with Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led government.

"Today, no one in this nation is satisfied with the Narendra Modi-led government at the Centre," Kejriwal said.

He alleged that the Modi government is against the Dalits of the nation.

"Centre has opened a front against Dalits and students," Kejriwal said.

Demanding justice for  Vemula, Kejriwal said: "A student who should have been appreciated by the nation was forced to commit suicide."

Students are participating in a rally here on Tuesday to demand justice for Dalit scholar Rohith Vemula and JNU student leader Kanhaiya Kumar.

Rohith's family is currently present in New Delhi.

Rohith's suicide  has snowballed into a major issue across the country with a widespread agitation being carried out against the government and the university authorities in the past few days.
