Congress leaders Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, along with party chief Mallikarjun Kharge and several top leaders, are sitting on a dharna outside the Prime Minister’s Lok Kalyan Marg house on Tuesday. About 20 minutes later, Minister of State in the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) Jitendra Singh met Gandhi at the protest site and appealed to him to end the protest. Rahul Gandhi demanded from the government that the paper leak issue should be discussed in the House and the Union Home Minister should give clarification in the House.
Rahul Gandhi wrote on social site X, attack on students is an attack on every Indian family. Prime Minister Modi thinks that he can get away without answering, without facing any consequences – he will not be able to, certainly not this time.
Every patriotic Indian should join the protest…Rahul’s appeal
He said that I appeal to every patriotic Indian who believes that our students should get justice – join our dharna in front of the Prime Minister’s residence. The voice of India’s students cannot be ignored.
