Sharmila voiced her concerns on X, formerly Twitter, stating, "If we call for a struggle against unemployment, why face house arrests? Why block our party workers? Don't we have the right to protest in a democracy? Is it not shameful that as a woman, I must evade police and spend the night at the Congress party office?"
She questioned, "Are we terrorists or anti-social elements? They fear us. They try to hide their failures. Despite their efforts to stop us, our fight against unemployment will continue."
