What did the BJP spokesperson say on the matter?
On this matter, BJP spokesperson Prabhakar Mishra said, “No one is above the law. We clearly believe that strict action should be taken against such anti-social elements. The candidates who were present at the railway station were disciplined, but some anti-social elements made their intentions clear by jamming the railway track. They pelted stones and damaged public property, that too when they had a demand for a special train, which was provided by the railway administration.”
What did JDU say on the matter?
JDU spokesperson Naval Sharma said that it is the right of the students to put forth their demands and the Bihar government works on the rights of the students. But the incident of vandalism at Patliputra station is not justified at all. Some anti-social elements are spoiling the atmosphere by entering the crowd of students, but the law will take its course in Bihar.
RJD’s reaction on railway station uproar
RJD spokesperson Mrityunjay Tiwari said that stone pelting by students and firing by the administration is unfortunate. We would like to tell the students not to take the law into their own hands, but students had an examination and due to lack of arrangements, the students got angry and there should be an investigation.
He said that action should be taken against those who are guilty. An answer should be given on what arrangements the government made for the transportation of students for the Prohibition Department exam today.
