What a useless service of ICICILombard travel insurance. If the travel hasn't started and they cannot change the travel insurance. What is this crap service. I suggest no one buy travel insurance from these bunch of looters. No empathy! @ICICILombard
IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT
Cockroach Janta Party has not given a call to assemble anywhere but at Jantar Mantar, where our peaceful protest is on.
We received reports that some goons may have been sent to other parts of Delhi to create nuisance. They are NOT with CJP.

Breaking news this morning: Activist Sonam Wangchuk, who was sitting on a hunger strike from last 20 days at Jantar Mantar, taken to the hospital by the police. Delhi Police claim that they are acting on court orders: truth is, court asked govt to monitor his health and not forcibly whisk him away or ask protestors to vacate Jantar Mantar. 🙏
He is not a criminal. Why did you drag him away hiding behind sheets?
He didn’t want to go to the hospital. He wanted to join the Parliament march. But what these police have done- he was not a criminal. The way they took him away hidden under sheets- if you were so concerned about his health, you should have taken him with respect.
In every state, in every district, set up a Jantar Mantar! And protest there just like it has been going on here for a month.

Had a call with AAP Chief @ArvindKejriwal, who reached out to enquire about Sonam sir’s health and expressed his deep concern over his condition.
At a time like this, every voice that stands for dialogue and democracy matters. I sincerely thank Arvind sir for extending his support to CJP’s protest and to our March to Parliament on 20 July.
#SOS: To every Indian,
Things are looking grimmer by the day.
I don’t know how much longer Sonam sir can hold on. He keeps telling us he can. But those of us sitting beside him are terribly worried.
This is a man who could have chosen a life of comfort and recognition. Instead, the recipient of a Ramon Magsaysay Award, an honour equivalent to the Nobel Prize, is putting his own life at risk for the future of our children, the young, and this country. He sits for those dead students murdered by a broken, corrupt education system. He is sacrificing his body and maybe his life for a greater cause.
It makes me think what does it say about US that a son of India, who brought us such great honour before the world, has to STARVE himself to death simply to be heard by his OWN government?
This is not my idea of India. This is not India!
Somewhere along the way, we stopped feeling. We began to accept silence when there should have been outrage, indifference where there should have been compassion. We have become spectators to suffering. We have convinced ourselves that someone ELSE will speak, someone ELSE will act.
I have no words left.
I am sorry sir.
We are failing you. We are failing you by allowing a nation to reach a point where a man of your integrity and stature must gamble with his own life just to make those in power LISTEN. We are failing you because we normalised arrogance over empathy. We normalised power over compassion. And we normalised indifference over conscience.
July 20 is our last attempt to save you.
If we cannot stand up now, history will not ask what Sonam Wangchuk did for India. It will ask what India did when Sonam Wangchuk needed her.
DAY 12 UPDATE
CHALO SANSAD
A peaceful march to the Indian Parliament.
Most countries in the democratic world are not only accessible but welcoming to general public. Most even have a protest place right in front, so there’s no reason this shouldn’t be possible in the capital of the ‘mother of democracy’
I’m mustering all my energy to say these few words… do please watch and comment
Cockroach Party Zindabad!
Thousands of protesters begin arriving at Jantar Mantar to demand the resignation of Dharmendra Pradhan.
