Lok Sabha Leader of the Opposition Rahul Gandhi asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday not to obstruct protesting students, describing them as the voice of the country.
Gandhi met injured student protesters, including National Students' Union of India members, who alleged inhuman treatment by police during demonstrations against CEC Gyanesh Kumar.
The Congress leader assured students that action would be taken against those responsible for police actions and urged them to preserve video evidence of the incidents.
