Protest Is A Right, But Abusive Language Against The PM Does Not Reflect Well On Nation: Bhaichung Bhutia
Prime Minister Narendra Modi: Former Indian football captain Bhaichung Bhutia has stated that while every citizen in the country has the constitutional right to protest and express their views, using inappropriate or abusive language, especially targeting the Prime Minister, "does not reflect well on an individual or the country as a whole."
Bhaichung's remarks come days after videos from the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) protest at New Delhi's Jantar Mantar showed sections of protesters shouting profane slogans against Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
"Regarding all issues in India, in any part of the country, everyone has the right to protest. Anyone can express their views and say what they want," Bhaichung said. "However, using inappropriate language, especially targeting the Prime Minister, does not reflect well on an individual, society, or the country as a whole. While exercising the right to protest, respectful language should still be maintained."
