Let no other talk distract you from the fact that pellet guns, electric shock batons, tear gas lathis with rusted nails were used to attack a march of peaceful young Indians asking for a better education system, in the national capital.
An AK-47 gun was used to disperse another such protest in Bihar.
Union Ministers lied to the country about it, while all of this was shown largely by independent and global media, and via social media.
And now the regime is behind young content creators who put up stories and reels that exposed this brutality of the regime to the world.
School and college students were detained- some even from their homes, women faced some dirty behaviour from some individuals who are yet to be suspended.
Peaceful protesters have been manhandled, prohibited from speaking out against the education system and the regime, across most parts of the country.
Some pro bjp handles have put up silly videos dissing the young generation, even trying to attract abuse to young people who made reels only asking the regime to come out and talk.
And Andhbhakts have, as per their upbringing, abused women and threatened young people.
None of the attempts by the regime to be seen on any social media medium and interact with anybody will make up for this.
@ChekrishnaCk@RahulGandhi I'm not kidding when I say this. He is a literal street gunda. Shame on people of Udupi who voted this vermin.

I have compiled multiple clips from a programme on Subramanian Swamy's YouTube channel featuring Gitanjali Angmo — co-founder of the Himalayan Institute of Alternatives, Ladakh. In it, she calls for removing "secular" from the Constitution, wants Sanskrit as the national language, endorses the Ram Mandir and a "Hindu Rashtra" and rejects the Aryan Invasion Theory.
If you’re new to understanding Indian politics, don’t stop at the politically shallow, ideologically ungrounded CJP or Wangchuk.
Instead, check out the parallel protests led by SFI, AISA & AISF. That is where real political education, organisation and sustained action begin.
Hello @GitanjaliAngmo, do you and @Wangchuk66 own this movement that you feel that you can dictate how this movement should go forward? There were many other students who were also fasting at the same time, do you hear them talking in the same tone, as if they own the movement?
And what does it mean by don't politicise? Are political parties of this country not part of the democratic space of this country? @Wangchuk66 is quite happy to deal with BJP and their leaders, and break his fast in their presence. So, then which political parties are you talking about which shouldn't 'politicise'? Are you saying that the opposition parties should not participate in this moment?
And since when are ideologies not important? Did Gandhi not have an ideology? Did Nehru not have an ideology? Did Bhagat Singh not have an ideology? When BJP and its supporters are declaring the students who are protesting to be anti-national, is that not the output of an ideology? Are the textbooks that are being changed across the state not an output of an ideology? Are the RSS people who are being placed in every university and dictating how the universities should run not the output of an ideology? If you're saying that you care for the students, then you should also know that what the students are going through today is because of an ideology that has taken over the country.
In fact, the most central aspect of what is happening in India today, is a fight of ideologies.
No one expected Wangchuk to fast forever, that would be stupid. But the last few days, he's acted as an individual and not as a part of a collective. Why did he have to break the fast with JP Nadda feeding him? What is the symbolism here? Why is he validating a government which just the other day beat up students black and blue? How is he happy with 'assurances' when this Government has a 12 year history of only giving 'assurances'?
He's done this again and again, this is not the first time. He was thanking the government when kashmiris were been brutalised. He's got a problematic past and that cannot be ignored, and he's acting the same way that he has in the past, making things about himself.
And therefore, since he has decided that his is an individual performance, now that the performance is done, he can go home and rest.
Knew Wangchuk would find an easy way out for Modi. This time I hope there are no takers. You have to be extraordinarily naive to believe Modi will change his ways.
Dear @Wangchuk66 we respect you. But suggestion for protestors to go around the country & present PM ji with a report will not fly. Please do not fall into govt’s trap & dilute the moral high ground you achieved in 26 days. Movement is far beyond that.
