    Now what prompted the ex-servicemen to sit in peaceful protests, found to be ‘undignified’ by the minister? The political culture of our country at the highest levels has undergone a change. We have seen that the agitational approach bears results. Television coverage of the proceedings in Parliament is visible to all. Sit-in protests and relay hunger strikes by our lawmakers on the steps of Parliament have not been missed by anyone. Misguided or not, the ex servicemen merely tried to take a leaf out of that book.
