He feels it quite disturbing.
He says that it is disturbing and people must follow unity in diversity. Even though everyone has got the freedom of expression and right to opinion, it doesn’t mean one can say whatever he wants. He further adds that if he is wrong, he can be punished as per the laws.
He asks for the definition of anti-national.
He says that the problem of the people is that they don’t know what anti-national actually means. If he made talks of destroying the constitution or burning the nation, it is right to call him so, but if he has carelessly uttered something in enthusiasm or owing to immaturity, one doesn’t have the right to call him so.
He thinks the administration didn’t handle the thing properly.
The matter should have been tackled within the campus. Had the Vice Chancellor been judicious and prompt, the matter wouldn’t have exceeded. A stern action should have been taken, thereby rusticating the students. There was no need of calling the cops.
To him, honesty matters the most.
Shatrughan believes in honesty and politics. He says he would always favor healthy politics.
He is disappointed by the non-violence that happened.
He states that we belong to a country where non-violence is preached. However, the thing which happened wasn’t right.
We should learn to listen
The boy’s protests would be heard only if people stop screaming. He requests people to maintain peace and not get carried away.
