Congress Leaders Slam Government for Targeting Students and Censoring Social Media
Betrayal of Promises
In a sharp denunciation, Congress leaders Mallikarjun Kharge and Rahul Gandhi have accused the government of reneging on its commitment to protect students from reprisals after they called off their protests. According to their posts on X, the government is now allegedly targeting these students and censoring their social media accounts, raising concerns about freedom of expression.
This situation begs critical questions: What happened to the promises made to these students? Why is the government taking punitive action against those who exercised their democratic rights? The leaders have urged Prime Minister Modi to hold Home Minister Amit Shah accountable for these actions, reflecting a growing frustration among citizens regarding the government's handling of dissent.
As reported by The Hindu, the Congress leaders' statements emphasize the need for transparency and accountability in governance, especially concerning the rights of students and their ability to voice concerns without fear of retaliation.
