democracy restored for twelve hours until yogi wakes up tomorrow and has five more masjids bulldozed, gadkari goes back to blending earth itself w ethanol and gyanesh kumar googling how to perfectly rig another election. the more things change, the more they remain the same
I hope we remember that we're not exactly a democracy. A single resignation requires you to get brutalised by the police, undergo religious profiling, go through humiliations that would be human rights violations anywhere in the world. Our relationship with power is still feudal.
Such cowards. Back to normal? When did they interrupt with any public activity? When did they call for road blockades? When did they ask for desh bandi? When did they call for everyday march to disrupt the traffic of any city?
Itne followers leke bhi bakwaas hi karna hai to koi bhi party join karlo, “influenza” kyu ban na hai? @Cockroachisback@SauravDassss@whattalawyer

The resignation of the Education Minister is an acknowledgment that accountability in a democracy cannot be indefinitely evaded. It comes after weeks of determined, peaceful voices raised by students, parents and citizens across the country who refused to be ignored.
It also comes after far too many young Indians faced unnecessary police brutality and force for exercising their democratic right to peaceful protest. That should concern every citizen, regardless of political affiliation.
But accountability does not end with a resignation. The deeper failures that brought us here must now be addressed through transparent reforms, institutional responsibility and a commitment to ensuring that no young Indian’s future is jeopardised again.
The students who marched, spoke out and peacefully persisted deserve to know that this is the beginning of reform, not the end of the story.
