SAMDISH SHOWS HOW POLICE BRUTALITY CRUSHED DISSENT 🚨
Students came to Jantar Mantar asking questions on education, paper leaks and accountability. What followed was pure police brutality.
A woman was beaten by male officers. Students were pushed, chased and hit. Samdish himself took lathis while recording what was happening.
Even after being hit, he kept saying: this is not about media privilege. No citizen should be beaten like this in their own city.
This was the state crushing dissent in full public view.
Jantar Mantar became the place where students asked for dialogue and power answered with lathis.

How did we rediscover Ashoka & our ancient history?
A story that deserves a Netflix series 🧵
