C)Talking points:
1) I am, concerned that Madhuri has been arrested in Barwani while protesting peacefully against the denial of health services to a tribal mother
2) Such peaceful democratic protest against an inhuman act is not illegal. In fact that is the only thing that can uphold democracy.
3) I register my strong protest at the arrest. This has also happened in the past.
4) I urge you to bring to justice the errant health officials who refused to give medical services to the mother in need.
