I was there at one of the protest rallies and I heard him speak, this was right before he went on hunger strike. I think his involvement and his hunger strike were instrumental in rallying mass support against the BJP's stubborn refusal to remove Dharmendra Pradhan. His hunger strike was undoubtedly a big part of the success of the protests.
