    Reason to protest ? Monday, 03 July 2017 07:44 PM

    They should have been asked to submit a signed document giving their reasons ,(as parents of students of free medical education) what is bugging them in opposing private medical education. They will have no answer.

    Where is the law when a group of terrorists forcibly camp on Govt property and demand they stay till their they decide when to vacate. I can imagine this for a householder family but this type of protester being allowed shows breakdown of law and will set wrong precedents. they want to stay till GMOA protest on July 5th. Organised crimes.

    The fruits fall near the tree. Like parents like children. How can these fools who are like sheep become leaders of a nation?

    It is a crime to stay on state property and inconveniencing public. They should vacate immediately on a court order. Why allow them time till 5th. Absurd ttwisting of the law. Looks like courts are condoning crime.
