Army chief Bipin Rawat today criticized violence during protests against the citizenship law, saying 'leaders are not those who lead masses in arson and violence'. He was immediately called out for taking sides while still occupying an office that must be neutral and apolitical. General Rawat, who is due to retire on December 31, has spoken for the first time against the massive nationwide protests against the Citizenship Act.
