Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat addressed an event in Mumbai and claimed that if Gen Z is protesting, they are not anti-nationals but "our own people." He stated that Gen Z is different from previous generations, as they question elders and seek logical answers. Bhagwat explained that when he was their age, he listened to his elders without questioning.
He emphasized that Gen Z wants logical answers and is more honest than existing generations, thus responding positively to the appeal of patriotism and service. Bhagwat also backed comprehensive reforms in the education system, arguing that several reforms are necessary. He called for increased education budget allocation to six percent, improved fee structures, and focusing on teachers' training.
Regarding conflicts between countries, Bhagwat asserted that nations like Pakistan and China should not be viewed as India's outright enemies.

Bhagwat concluded by stressing that humanity ultimately transcends political divisions and that people should stand with the government during times of conflict.
