New Delhi, Apr 6 (IANS): There is no "unrest" in the country, and the unrest is only in the "minds of opponents", union minister M. Venkaiah Naidu said on Tuesday.

The minister was asked about protests in universities and the situation of farmers.

"There is no unrest in the country, the unrest is in the minds of the opponents," Naidu said in an interaction with journalists at the Indian Women Press Corps.

He said the unrest was only in 3-4 universities, out of hundreds of universities in India.

"There is no question of accepting actions like what happened in JNU," he said, adding that public opinion was with the government.

He also took a jibe at Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi's support to agitating Jawaharlal Nehru University students.

"... And who did they go to, Rahul Gandhi... What freedom did they (Congress) give them in 50 years?" he said.

The minister, however, admitted that agriculture in the country was facing a crisis, and said the government was taking steps to improve the situation of farmers.

    It appears to be an ignorant statement by Mr Naidu. A lot is happening in the country which we can see it from a foreign country. The University Campus rioting, a lot of killings on beef issue, irresponsible statements from Sadhus like Ramdev, attacks on indefensible nuns, and a lot more. For us patriotism is the way of life. Wherever we are India is our motherland. We can see her bleeding from outside why cant our leaders see it from inside. Look at the amount of man-hours lost on arguing about Bharat Mata Ki Jai. Having born in India,we are gelled to Bharat Mata and no one else. There is no need to make this an issue at all. We must always be indebted to our country - not any single party. BJP/RSS are bent on forcing people to their loyalty. Every Indian citizen is and has to be loyal to Mother India no need to this on TV channels.
