CPI(M) Rajya Sabha MP John Brittas explains why opposition leaders have taken their protest from Parliament to the streets. Speaking during the INDIA bloc's 'Save Democracy' campaign, Brittas argued that Parliament's role as the central institution of representative democracy has been weakened and defended the opposition's decision to agitate over concerns related to democracy, constitutional values and electoral processes.
