Is that Additional DCP Ashok Bishnoi manhandling a woman protestor?
Times will change, and the dictator will certainly meet his end.
Everything will be remembered.
We want Amit Shah in Parliament giving specific statement on police brutality on protestors - we don’t need to hear his general lectures on how Nehru is responsible. And we need debate on Ram Mandir loot.

मेरे गाँव जाकर परिवार और ग्रामीणों को परेशान करना बंद कीजिए।
जो भी बात करनी है, सीधे मुझसे कीजिए।"

🚨 #MAJORANNOUNCEMENT
Yet another major victory for the youth!
Now that the Supreme Court has removed confusions, we expect the Government of India and all BJP/NDA-ruled states to immediately honour the assurances given on 25 July to the young of this country.
From Day 1, the Cockroach Janta Party has stood by every student and every protester, providing legal assistance, medical support, and every other form of help within our means. That commitment remains unchanged. We thank all lawyers across the country who continue to help the protesters.
We also continue to closely monitor developments across states and remain in constant dialogue with senior representatives of the Union Government. We expect the assurances to be implemented in both letter and spirit.
The youth of this country honoured their word. It is now time for the Government to honour its own immediately.

Prime Minister Modi says he has chosen to forgive the students who abused him during the Jantar Mantar protest, but the larger question was never just about the slogans.
Watch closely and Modi's 'forgiveness' video does 6 things at once... and none of them are about forgiveness at all. It reframes a protest into a family drama, and asks the country to watch it as one:
1. Selective gendering of outrage
Modi's latest video registers "cultural shock" only at "our daughters" using abusive language. There's no equivalent line for the male protesters in the same crowd using identical language, possibly because of how BJP's IT Cell and "supporters" online (including the handles followed by Modi himself) have thoroughly normalized all sorts of abuse online for years. Modi's silence on this is hardly neutral, I believe - it simply marks women's transgression as the one requiring special anguish, while male vulgarity remains background noise, unremarked and continued to be "employed" to browbeat, shut down and instill fear.
2. Paternalism as agency erasure
Adult and near-adult (recently vocal) political actors are reduced to "misguided children" and "daughters" who have "lost their way" and need the leader's guidance. The language converts protest into a parenting problem. It strips them of political subjectivity and repositions them as dependents requiring moral correction rather than citizens making a political claim.
3. Forgiveness as optics, not principle
The public offer of forgiveness is conveyed even as BJP-aligned accounts published protesters' home addresses, phone numbers, workplace details, and family names (one office-bearer publicly called for more women to be "identified" and "made famous" with FIRs filed and no apology to be accepted). CNN-News18 went on a hounding spree too, with camera in hand. One protester received explicit death and rape threats while another was pressured into a filmed apology. Modi's video performs magnanimity while the machinery of 'state-led consequence' runs in parallel, goaded by BJP's supporters. Magnaimity in the sheets, hounding in the streets.
4. Civility as deflection
By elevating the tone of the abuse above the substance of the protest, the message relocates the story. Modi's video never once names the paper-leak allegations or the Education Minister's position and eventual resignation while blaming 'anti-national forces', the actual grievance that brought students to Jantar Mantar in the first place. Language becomes the crime while the underlying question of institutional accountability is removed from the frame.
5. Consistent paternal style, not a one-off
This is not an exception, of course. From Beti Bachao Beti Padhao's "daughters of the nation" idiom to this video's "we don't disown our teeth even if they bite our tongue", Modi's communication style has a standing template: the nation as family, himself as well-intended, insanely wise, corrective father, and dissent as waywardness requiring his patient guidance. The latest video just applies the same template to a fresh set of dissenters.
6. Who does the work in "forgiveness"
The video assigns every party a role: he forgives (the active gesture), they must learn (the passive correction), and the public is invited to embrace his account f events as the shared, settled one. It's not just that the video erases the protesters' agency, but it recruits the audience into ratifying the paternal frame as consensus, so that anyone still angry looks like they're refusing the leader's generosity rather than continuing to ask a legitimate question. Stupendously wily.
If the harassment of students at the hands of the police continues, the Cockroach Janta Party will respond with a massive peaceful protest soon.
The Govt must stop targeting and witch-hunting students.
CJP Founder @abhijeet_dipke releases a video thanking everyone who made the huge victory of the youth possible.
He also thanks all critics for helping him improve, and eventually deliver on the promise of the Cockroach Janta Party’s first campaign.
#ANewDay
Just now in the presence of Union Ministers Sh. JP Nadda, Dr. Jitendra Singh and the senior leaders of Apex Body of Leh Ladakh I finally broke my fast after 26 days. Earlier 65 members of parliament from different political parties had visited or signed letters urging me to break the fast. This was done after long negotiations on various conditions and in view of possible violence in the country. I will explain the conditions in detail in a separate video very soon. Meanwhile I urge you all to stay very vigillant about not allowing violence of any kind anywhere.
VISUALS AT CENTRAL SECRETARIAT METRO STATION
Every time you block ordinary people from using the Metro and inconvenience people, they ALL become protesters.
Your strategy is totally backfiring! Everything you’re trying is failing.
IMPORTANT - 22nd July at 6:15 PM
CJP will continue its protests until the Government accepts its demands for:
1. Dharmendra Pradhan’s resignation
2. Rs 1 crore compensation for families of children who died by suicide
3. NO PROSECUTION OF PEACEFUL PROTESTERS
4. All police officials involved in committing atrocities must be prosecuted.
सरकार को तीन काले कानून वापस लेने के लिए मजबूर करने वाले भारतीय किसान यूनियन के राकेश टिकैत पहुंच गए हैं जंतर-मंतर!
आज देश का युवा अपने भविष्य और न्याय के लिए अडिग खड़ा है। जब किसान और छात्र एक साथ आते हैं, तो सत्ता को झुकना ही पड़ता है।
जब तक धर्मेंद्र प्रधान का इस्तीफा नहीं मिल जाता, यह आंदोलन रुकने वाला नहीं है।
साथ लड़ेंगे, साथ जीतेंगे।
