October 03, 2015 22:06

Hardik Patel, the 22-year-old leader who is spearheading the Patel quota stir, on Saturday advised a youth from the community to rather kill policemen than commit suicide. "If you have so much courage...then go and kill a couple of policemen. Patels never commit suicide," Hardik said in Surat, speaking to a local youth, Vipul Desai, who had announced that he would commit suicide in support of the agitation. Hardik visited Desai's house today, accompanied by team of a local news-channel, which aired the conversation later.
