'First you broke their bones, now filing FIRs': Rahul Gandhi warns PM Modi, Amit Shah to not 'threaten Gen Z into silence'
Rahul Gandhi criticized PM Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah for filing FIRs and taking down social media accounts of student protesters, saying 'you cannot threaten Gen Z into silence'.
Gandhi alleged the government broke students' bones during the July 20 protest at Delhi's Jantar Mantar and demanded a Supreme Court-monitored high-powered committee to probe the police action.
Opposition MPs from INDIA bloc parties protested at Parliament's Makar Dwar over alleged police brutality at Jantar Mantar and alleged embezzlement of donations for the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Temple in Ayodhya.
The protest occurred hours before the Rajya Sabha was to consider the Public Examinations (Prevention of Unfair Means) Amendment Bill, 2026.
