Protesting girls students at the BHU hostel are beaten up by U.P. Police. They were demanding their basic rights and facilities as an adult human being. The demonstrations are perfectly justified. Why should there be a moral policing on girls? Like don't wear this or don't wear that? Why shouldn't they have boyfriends? Why should they be denied Wi-Fi? Because they will go astray under the malign influence of the Internet? Why shouldn't they have non-veg food? Because it will engender lusty thoughts? I would like to see young women on every campus across the country rise up in revolt against these regressive patriarchal mindsets.
