Rahul Gandhi, the opposition leader in Lok Sabha, expressed support for IDBI Bank employees on Friday. This support came amidst protests organized by the bank's trade unions and political parties against the government's decision to sell its stake in the credit institution.
Subsequently, the government requested new applications from two participants in the process and applied two valuation methods before deciding to sell its share in Fairfax Holdings.
Sanjay Raut, a deputy from Shiv Sena (UBT), criticized the directive on Friday that required actor Imran Khan to leave India. He stated that such a demand creates the impression that protests in the country have turned into a crime.
Raut also noted that people who are protesting events in India are being pressured and compared to terrorists, recalling Mahatma Gandhi's return from South Africa during the fight for freedom, and questioned why citizens have to leave the country for expressing their opinion.
Imran Khan, a 43-year-old actor and holder of an Overseas Citizen of India (OCI) card, is likely to approach the Bombay High Court on Friday, October 16, or Monday, October 19, through his lawyer Zulfiqar Memon, to challenge this order.
