▶ Play Clip"The title's question is answered directly through a student interview, though it offers only a single perspective."
This ground report from Jantar Mantar captures a 17-year-old Bihari student's perspective on why students from Bihar joined the ongoing protest. He speaks about the strength and unity of Biharis, the real purpose behind the protest, and appeals to troublemakers not to spoil the movement. The interview highlights the personal sacrifices students are making for a shared future.
The speaker opens by calling Biharis a renowned brand, claiming that one person from Bihar alone carries significant weight.
The student is from Bihar, arrived nearly two days ago, and is staying at the food section, knowing little about the arrangements.
He believes those providing food are doing good for the welfare of children and students.
Students are protesting for their future and for all brothers, sisters, and children.
One Bihari can overpower 100 people, and Biharis help keep the crowd united so no one can create a ruckus.
At 17 years old, he came from Bihar, stayed up all night eating biscuits, and is now giving his time for the sake of future children.
He says protesters who have come to 'have fun' are not real students.
Those making false allegations do not seem like genuine protesters; he apologizes to those creating riots and pleads, 'Sir, please do not do this.'
If students have to write papers multiple times, parents may give up and get them married, saying they can't give more time. The protest aims to prevent any child from suffering.
He hopes demands will be fulfilled, noting that people from far-off places like Gujarat, Punjab, Delhi, and all 28 states have come to participate.
The student's message is simple: Bihari students are at Jantar Mantar to stand up for every child's future, not to cause trouble. He appeals for unity and hopes the protest's demands for justice will be met.

02:31[00:05] Bihari is a renowned brand. Correct. Like if any person comes from Bihar, he alone any person comes from Bihar, he alone outweighs ₹1.
[00:26] I am from Bihar. I have come from the district of Bihar. But it has been almost two days since I came here. I am right here. I am sleeping here at the food section and I do n't know anything about it. If anyone gives me food, I mean the one who is giving it to me, I feel that he is
[00:39] doing something very good. If I know that it is happening for a reason, they should know that someone is giving food, but no one knows about it. The one who is giving it to me, I mean, it seems that he is doing it for the welfare of the children or all the students. All the
[00:52] whatever protests they are doing, they are doing it for their future and for all their brothers, children, sisters. who were saying that Biharis have come, so tell me, what difference will it make if Biharis come to this protest?
[01:08] What energy do Biharis bring? like if any person from Bihar comes, he alone can overpower 100 people. If we want to unite all these crowds, I mean, I will
[01:23] keep them all together and no one can create a ruckus for anyone. They don't give, that's it, and Biharis have a different kind of opportunity, which you can see, people might have seen it, is it that Biharis are superior to everyone, in
[01:36] a way, they are superior because I too am from Bihar, I am 17 years old, I came from Bihar and stayed up all night eating biscuits, then after coming here, whatever time and however much time I spend
[01:50] here, I am giving it all for all the future children, and for all the future children, and that the protesters have come to have fun, the protesters are not real students, so
[02:02] what message would you like to give to them, those who are making false allegations, no, there is nothing like that, look at what they are saying, it does n't seem to me that they have come to protest, they are doing it in a good way, whatever they are saying right now, it
[02:16] spoil the protest, whether they are from so far away or even local, I don't know about it right now. But whoever these people are, they are creating riots, I apologize to them on my behalf. I am saying that Sir, Sir, please do not do this.
[02:31] Suppose your children also come here, you too have a sister or sister, if you write the paper once, twice, thrice, four times, then their parents, whoever they are, will get them married and will say that son, I cannot give you so much time. This is the reason why
[02:46] we have come here to ensure that no child, be it anyone's that no child, be it anyone's brother, should not suffer all this and it does not matter, I hope you will get justice, whatever
[02:58] demands you are making will be fulfilled. Absolutely ma'am, so much time, so much crowd here, you all are seeing, all of you have come here for this only, no, to ensure that we get success in whatever is happening, to ensure that we come from such a far off place, let's say
[03:12] anyone here, let's say properly no one here will be from Delhi like Gujarat, Punjab, no one, even the brothers will be from Punjab and all the brothers who will be from Punjab, they will be from anywhere or they will be from Delhi or will be locals here, I mean it does
[03:27] n't seem to me that anyone is from here properly, I mean mixed, all our states, it is the eighth state, the 28th state, people from the 28th state are coming, they are giving their full time here and thinking that all my brothers and sisters who are coming here should not face
[03:40] injustice, I mean they should not face what is happening, yes they should,
