'Protests have no place in a democracy like India'
New Delhi, Sept. 30 (PTI): The Congress today steered clear of the Supreme Court order staying tomorrow's DMK sponsored bandh in Tamil Nadu on the Sethusamudram project issue but said as a concept such protests have no place in a democracy like India.
AICC Media Department Chairperson, Veerappa Moily, who is in Moscow, said "restraint" is the real solution for conflict resolution.
He said bandhs often turn violent and there is a lot of disruption of economic life. Besides, October 2 was being observed as International Non-violence Day and it would be desirable if all political parties work in that spirit.
