Dacoits are sitting in Parliament,” Bhagwan Dipke told reporters. Abhijeet’s father, Bhagwan Dipke, questioned the deployment of a large police force for what he described as a student agitation. ”I don’t understand why so much police force is deployed in Delhi? It is an agitation of students. Have dacoits from Chambal gathered in Delhi? Abhijeet’s mother, Anita Dipke, also criticised the police action, questioning why protesters had been detained from an aircraft. ”This is wrong on the part of the government. What have these people done that they had to be detained from a flight? Do they go to the houses of rapists and arrest them? They don’t. But they arrested these people, including Abhijeet Dipke, when there was no need to do so,” she added.
