Prime Minister Narendra Modi has condemned the violence that took place during the protests against the citizenship law changes. He reminded people that duties and rights go hand-in-hand, while also urging everyone to maintain peace. His message has both—a stern warning to rioters and a general appeal for peace. The question is would they help calm tempers or further polarize the debate? Expressing dissent is a fundamental right, but this must be done peacefully. The police too must not adopt a heavy-handed approach. For peace to be restored, all sides must exercise due restraint.
