Confirm your attendance for July 20th. Give a missed call at 7011670115.

[Ashutosh Ranka @AshutoshRanka]

Delhi police needs to clearly tell how many people are still under detention from yesterday's protest.

All the detainees should be released immediately.

@DelhiPolice

[Abhijeet Dipke @abhijeet_dipke]

I apologise to all our supporters, especially the girls who were brutally beaten by male police officers.

We could have done better. I could have done better to protect you from the inhumane actions of the Delhi Police.

To protect one Dharmendra Pradhan, who is responsible for the deaths of more than 20 students, the Govt was willing to spill the blood of many more young students.

If you were injured and see this, please DM me. I want to speak to you personally and apologise.

We will keep fighting for all of you.

[Ashutosh Ranka @AshutoshRanka]

Sonam Wangchuk is on 24th day of his hunger strike.

He is still fighting for us.

We won't stop. Pradhan has to be sacked.

[Ashutosh Ranka @AshutoshRanka]

Delhi police has crossed too many limits today.

[Ashutosh Ranka @AshutoshRanka]

Just seeing this - Nadda ji, don’t lie.

Your government got desperate when they realised the strength of this movement.

Then ended up wasting our 4 hours for this useless meeting.

[Jagat Prakash Nadda @JPNadda]

आज सुबह पहली बार प्रदर्शनकारियों की ओर से सरकार के साथ बातचीत करने का प्रस्ताव आया और सुबह 11:50 AM से ही हमारी बातचीत जारी है।

सौहार्दपूर्ण वातावरण में मुलाकात हुई। उनके डेलीगेशन के साथ विस्तार से पहले मौखिक चर्चा हुई और उनके द्वारा लगभग 4 बजे मुझे लिखित याचिका दी गई।

मैंने सभी प्रदर्शनकारियों से अनुरोध किया कि वे अपने धरने को समाप्त करें और सामान्य स्थिति बहाल करने में प्रशासन की मदद करें।

VIDEO | Delhi: "JP Nadda told us that he would speak to the senior leadership and get back to us, but we have received no response so far," says CJP spokesperson Ashutosh Ranka.

CJP asks the police or the government to come to Jantar Mantar if they want to initiate talks.

#CJPProtest

[Ashutosh Ranka @AshutoshRanka]

Immediately needed at Jantar Mantar:
1. Portable mikes (2-3)
2. Medical kit - Bandaids, Dettols, Paracetamol, Pain killers (A lot of our protestors have been brutally beaten up by police)
3. Portable torch - No light at the ground
4. Brooms - The entire area has been destroyed

[Ashutosh Ranka @AshutoshRanka]

Update: The protest will continue at Jantar Mantar

[Ashutosh Ranka @AshutoshRanka]

No response from the government yet.

There are still thousands of protesters all across the city.

Is the government response going to be limited to police brutality?

[Saurav Das @SauravDassss]

🚨#ImportantAnnouncement: @AshutoshRanka and I have been at J.P. Nadda’s residence since 12 noon. The demands have been conveyed, including immediate resignation/sacking of Dharmendra Pradhan.

The Minister assured us he will discuss this at the appropriate level. However, no commitments have been made so far. The peaceful protesters will not rest until the demand is met!

[Sonam Wangchuk @Wangchuk66]

Day #23
I'll continue my fast...........

[Ashutosh Ranka @AshutoshRanka]

The cockroaches have achieved a major victory today!

We made the Government bow down and listen to us.

We will not stop till Dharmendra Pradhan resigns.

[Sanket Upadhyay @sanket]

Failure by Govt

- In Anticipating Crowds
- In Managing Protest
- In Initiating Dialogue Initially
- In Its Mad Love For A Failed Education Minister

[Cockroach is Back @Cockroachisback]

🚨#ALERT: GEETANJALI JI’S HAIR PULLED BY DELHI POLICE, ASSAULTED.

A 12 YEAR OLD GIRL’S HEAD HAS BEEN BROKEN. 40-50 OTHER HEADS BROKEN!

@DelhiPolice WHAT IS GOING ON!?

[Ashutosh Ranka @AshutoshRanka]

To put the facts straight, it was only late yesterday night that DCP New Delhi reached out for opening a communication channel with government.

There were more serious discussions only from today 6AM, and only around 11:45AM was there an alignment on meeting Nadda ji.

We finally met Nadda ji 10 mins ago and he is checking with the leadership internally wrt our demands.

@DelhiPolice should immediately stop using brute force on peaceful protestors.

[Ashutosh Ranka @AshutoshRanka]

Update:

Me and @SauravDassss are still at Nadda ji's residence. Nadda ji has requested some time to align with their leadership with regards to our following demands:
- Immediate release of @Wangchuk66
- Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation
- 1Cr compensation for all NEET aspirants who committed suicide

[Saurav Das @SauravDassss]

#UPDATE: After waiting for more than 2 hours, @AshutoshRanka and I just met J.P. Nadda ji at his residence for 10 minutes.

While we submit a written letter with our demands, he has assured us that he will meanwhile speak internally. We are in that process. There is news of mass detention etc.

[Ashutosh Ranka @AshutoshRanka]

We were informed of government’s willingness to talk by @DelhiPolice this morning.

But there has been no progress on this in the last 5 hours.

Is the government trying to deliberately delay the discussions?
