New Delhi, July 22 -- Several protesters who participated in Monday's march towards Parliament remained bruised and injured on Tuesday, with one still critical and on respiratory support, a day after violent clashes between demonstrators and police across central Delhi left hundreds injured. On Monday, tens of thousands of protesters had marched towards Parliament demanding the resignation of Union education minister Dharmendra Pradhan over repeated examination paper leaks. As crowds advanced, toppling barricades erected across Lutyens' Delhi, Delhi Police and paramilitary personnel attempted to stop the march using tear gas, lathicharge and pellet-firing. While the Delhi Police alleged that the planned-but-unauthorised march was handled "professionally," visuals showed security personnel in full riot gear thrashing young unarmed protesters. Among the most critically injured is 22-year-old Sakshi, an Uttam Nagar resident, who remains in the intensive care unit (ICU) at Ram Manohar Lohia (RML) Hospital on ventilator support. A family member said she suffered severe injuries after a stampede-like situation that followed tear gas shelling near Jantar Mantar and Tolstoy Marg. "She has injuries on her face, neck and had difficulty breathing. She had gone with her cousin, who also suffered injuries," the relative said. Sakshi, originally from Bihar, lives with her uncle and aunt in west Delhi while pursuing a computer science course. At Lady Hardinge Medical College, 25-year-old Shekh Irshad Mansuri, a private firm employee from Gurugram, awaited surgery after fragments from a tear gas shell became lodged in his eye and neck. "I had only joined the gathering after seeing people raising slogans near CP. Then a security personnel came and started hitting us. Suddenly someone fired a tear gas shell, which I felt exploding next to my face. It felt like my face was on fire and I would choke to death," he said....
