India, Dec. 30 -- The North East Students' Organisation (NESO) has asked Uttarakhand chief minister Pushkar Singh Dhami to intervene following the brutal killing of a 24-year-old student from Tripura in Dehradun, and order establishment of at least one special police station to deal with cases related to racial discrimination and atroticies on people from the northeast.
