The Story in Brief
Students protesting near India's Parliament for a fair education system and against paper leaks were met with pellet guns and batons from police and Rapid Action Force personnel, according to reports. The violence comes as youth across the country demand accountability in education, with similar protests gaining momentum in recent weeks.
The Indian Opinion
What began as a peaceful march for education reform ended with students bleeding on the streets of New Delhi. The use of pellet guns and batons by the Rapid Action Force, just 500 metres from Parliament, is a violent answer to young people asking for their constitutional rights. This government must learn that accountability is not achieved through repression but through dialogue.
