The Response of Dahiya After the ‘Burger’ Controversy
Following the controversy, Vijeta Dahiya defended himself by posting some videos on social media channels. He said that he has been working and giving his everything to this movement for almost 6 weeks. Further, he added that he had not been sleeping properly for 2 months before this Delhi protest news.Â
According to Dahiya, he was a part of the march and returned to his home to clean up after everything was concluded. Responding to constant criticism, he said, ‘Why did I eat a burger? I was hungry.’ He also said that he is not accountable to those who are questioning him for his individual decisions.Â

As soon as the video surfaced, it became viral on social media with sharply divided opinions. Many people criticized Vijeta Dahiya and said that he should be with the protesters during those confrontation moments. While others resisted the idea that such a personal act must not outdo his larger and continuous contribution to this movement.
