Dipke questions PM Modi after his message to students who hurled abuses: ‘Is this forgiveness only for the reel?’
PM Narendra Modi posted an Instagram video forgiving students who abused him and his late mother during the Jantar Mantar protest, calling them 'misguided'.
Cockroach Janta Party founder Abhijeet Dipke questioned if the forgiveness was only for the camera and asked if cases against protesters would be withdrawn.
A 25-year-old girl was booked for abusive language against PM Modi during the protest; she apologized in a video, saying she was misled.
PM Modi said such language is not suitable for a civilized society but urged guidance over legal action, with the caption 'Let's guide the misguided'.
