Students Blocked Near Parliament; Athawale Demands Restraint from Both Sides

Athawale reiterated that the police had to enforce law and order, yet he maintained that the baton charge should not have occurred. He emphasized that the youth are the backbone of the government and that the administration must ensure that exam‑related incidents like paper leaks do not recur. While condemning the violence, he warned opposition leader Rahul Gandhi’s statements as baseless and promised decisive steps to prevent future leaks.
