Dhurandhar actor Saumya Tandon says no justifcation for using force against peaceful protesters: ‘Deeply disturbing’
Actor Saumya Tandon condemned the use of force against peaceful protesters during the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) march at Jantar Mantar.
Police used tear gas and lathi charge to disperse protesters marching toward Parliament in New Delhi.
Approximately 50,000 protesters demanded the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan over alleged NEET paper leaks.
Tandon called for dialogue and government engagement with students, stating that violence does not justify excessive force.
Social activist Sonam Wangchuk had joined the protest earlier with a hunger strike at Jantar Mantar.
