Congress MP Pawan Khera says, "Our demand remains the same that the Home Minister should come and make a statement on the theft of donations and the atrocities committed against students. PM Modi should apologise. The opposition has been making this demand continuously for the past 17-18 days, but the Home Minister is scared for some reason."

Congress MP Mallikarjun Kharge says the Opposition has three specific demands from the government. The Opposition wants to know who ordered lathicharge and firing on students. "Many students fell ill or were hospitalised; over a 100 suffered minor injuries, and many were wounded by pellet guns. We want a statement on this matter as well," says Kharge.

Outlining the other two issues, he says, "The second issue is the 'Chanda Chor' (donation theft) matter, and the third is the demand for an apology. These three issues have existed from the start, remain relevant now, and will continue to persist until they are resolved."

BJP MP Anurag Thakur target Congress leader Rahul Gandhi over the issue of Jharkhand student protest, saying, "Justice must be done for the youth of Jharkhand. The way they were subjected to lathi-charges and atrocities reveals the mindset of Rahul Gandhi—showing how the youth are being mistreated in a state governed by his supporters, and how justice is being denied to them.

"Yet, on the other hand, he demands answers from the Home Minister while failing to attend the House himself. The Home Minister is ready to provide answers, but Rahul Gandhi and the Congress party are peddling lies and making reckless statements merely to stay in the headlines," he says.
