Take inspiration from farmers movement: Prashant Kishore
Addressing the candidates at Gandhi Maidan, Prashant Kishor said, “Raising slogans for one day will do nothing. The lives of students in Bihar have been ruined for many years. This fight will go on for a long time and it will be fought till the end.” Giving the example of the farmers’ movement, he said that until the farmers stood firm in Delhi for many years, no change came. The police has stopped the angry march of the students midway. Police say that the Chief Minister is in Delhi, in this situation the students have not been allowed to proceed.
