Lucknow/IBNS: In his strong message to 'violent' protesters, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday said they should also keep in mind the need to maintain roads and other facilities like clean sewerage systems.

Uttar Pradesh, like many other parts of India, recently witnessed massive protests over the new citizenship law passed by the Indian government.

"Everyone who has protested violently and has vandalized property in recent times must ask himself, was this the right way?" Modi said while addressing at the foundation stone laying ceremony of Atal Bihari Vajpayee Medical University in Lucknow.

"I request and tell these protesters that if good roads, facilities, and a clean sewerage system is a citizen's right, maintaining them correctly is their responsibility as well," he said.
