  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.
