Calling "protest is a way of dialogue", RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat said: "I won’t say that Gen Z should not protest, but in a democracy there are ways of going about it". He said that Gen Z and Gen Alpha want "logical answers" to the questions raised by them. The RSS chief also said that the "education is not a commercial business". Earlier, Bhagwat urged parents to lead by example.
Bhagwat stressed that the system should be designed in a way that makes quality education available to everybody without placing financial burden on families.
Speaking about the recent student protests at Jantar Mantar, Bhagwat said the protesters should not be called “anti-national”.
Mohan Bhagwat advocated for system correction through protests and increased education budgets. He opposed social media bans and favored dialogue with Pakistan and China. Traditional family structures should be upheld while creating space for same-sex relationships. Bhagwat explained women's independence from the RSS apex decision-making body. Societal disrespect for manual labor causes competition for government jobs, he stated.
