RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat strongly backed students protesting over alleged NEET irregularities, saying their grievances are genuine and should be heard. Speaking on the issue, Bhagwat said protests are a legitimate form of dialogue in a democracy and stressed that protesting students should not be viewed as anti-national. He said Gen Z represents the country’s future and deserves a sense of belonging, respect, and meaningful engagement through dialogue. Bhagwat also observed that Gen Z and Gen Alpha seek logical answers to the questions they raise. Commenting on education, he said it should not be treated as a commercial business and must remain accessible to everyone. He added that society should also contribute towards improving the quality and status of education in the country.
