Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Sunday questioned Home Minister Amit Shah's silence over alleged police brutality against protesting students in Delhi. Speaking after his "Chhatron ki Goonj" event in Prayagraj, Gandhi said a student told him he had "no options left now" after years of preparation and family debt. He asserted that Shah would have to answer for "this crime" sooner or later.
The opposition has paralysed both Houses of Parliament demanding Shah make a statement on the July 20 protest over paper leaks. Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju said Friday that opposition cannot dictate which minister responds. Gandhi also greeted the Indian Youth Congress on its foundation day, calling India's youth the country's greatest strength.
Both sides are acting like this is their only chance to score political points. The opposition wants Shah to own every police action; the government hides behind parliamentary procedure. But the students who sold land and took loans just want their exam system fixed. Will Parliament pass a single law on paper leaks this session, or will it all be theatre?
