Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said he forgives protesters who verbally abused him during recent youth-led demonstrations that posed one of the biggest political challenges to his government in recent years.
The protests, organized by the online Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), began over examination paper leaks but later expanded into broader demonstrations against unemployment and governance. The unrest eventually led to the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.
In a video shared on Instagram, Modi said some protesters used offensive language directed at him and even his late mother.
> "I want to forgive them," the 75-year-old prime minister said, adding that mistakes made by young people should be corrected through guidance rather than legal punishment.
Several protesters who appeared in viral videos insulting the prime minister reportedly faced online harassment from Modi supporters, while police also filed complaints against some individuals. Authorities have further asked social media platforms, including Meta and X, to remove content they described as abusive or manipulated.
Since the demonstrations began, Modi has increasingly turned to Instagram to engage directly with young people—the same platform where the CJP built much of its popularity.
The protests have highlighted growing public frustration over youth unemployment, governance, and the country's education system, marking a rare political setback for Modi's administration.
