He said he was 27, not 28, and clarified that he was a journalist rather than an active student.\u201cI am a journalist, and I have never claimed to be an active student. I am a student of life. She should also strive to be one,\u201d Das said.Das also addressed the use of derogatory language by some protesters during the agitation.He said individuals who believed they had been defamed could pursue civil or criminal defamation proceedings, but opposed the use of criminal justice machinery against protesters merely for objectionable language.He urged young people to exercise restraint in their choice of words while maintaining that objectionable remarks alone should not lead to criminal action.The online exchange comes amid continuing political and social-media debate over the conduct of protesters and the response to the CJP-led agitation.<\/p>\n<p>Do you agree with the view that clips from  films should not be used to judge real-life behavior?<\/p>\n<p>3k+ users shared opinion today <\/p>\n<p>5k+ users already voted today <\/p>\n<p>3k+ users shared opinion today <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/polls\/do-you-agree-with-the-view-that-clips-from-films-should-not-be-used-to-judge-real-life-behavior\/pollopinions\/132784781.cms?src=articleshow\" class=\"pd_MH\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Share Opinion<\/a>(With agency inputs)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kangana Ranaut has responded to social media users criticizing her recent remarks NEW DELHI: Actor and BJP MP&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":578619,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[321,243972,238485,42632,42631,42633,42634,93,243976,243975,61,60,243973,26861,243974,240031,207411,42635],"class_list":["post-578618","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-celebrities","tag-cjp-agitation","tag-cockroach-janta-party","tag-delhi-latest-news","tag-delhi-news","tag-delhi-news-live","tag-delhi-news-today","tag-entertainment","tag-film-character-controversy","tag-genz-protests","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-jantar-mantar-protests","tag-kangana-ranaut","tag-protest-language-controversy","tag-saurav-das","tag-social-media-criticism","tag-today-news-delhi"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/578618","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=578618"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/578618\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/578619"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=578618"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=578618"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=578618"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
