Abhijeet Dipke has questioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi's recent Instagram video in which he urged people to forgive students who shouted abuses during a protest, asking whether the message was "only for reel." Dipke alleged that the government's actions did not match the conciliatory tone of the Prime Minister's public appeal, raising concerns about the treatment of protesters. His remarks have sparked fresh political debate over freedom of expression, accountability, and the government's response to dissent. The controversy follows widespread discussion on social media over the Prime Minister's message promoting guidance and forgiveness instead of hostility. (PC: PTI)
