Hope the 5 parties is not trying to establish some kind of record in the Guiness World Book of Record....Is is ethical to get involve youngs (below voting age) or infants (who knows in future!!) to take part in the so called hunger strike? Our respected leaders should come up in the roundtable for a national consensus rather resorting to old tricks like hunger strike, vandalism, using school kids/college youths for political purpose, etc. We have seen many of these in the past, but that's not the ultimate solution. For how long we can go through this phenomena? Of course we want change, but we need to maintain certain standards while going through all this process.
