India’s Modi says he forgives students who abused him in Cockroach protests

PM says 'misled children' need to be shown 'the right path' as his supporters dox and abuse protesters on social media.

India’s PM says he wants to forgive students who hurled expletives at him and that forcing them to appear repeatedly in court would not help resolve the situation

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi said "mistakes made in youth" should be corrected through guidance rather than legal action.

The biggest political crisis of Modi's third term peaked in July after the leak of national exam papers forced a retest for 2 million students, fuelling anger over the lack of opportunities for young Indians.
