If the govt tries to stop this protest or arrest @abhijeet_dipke it will only fuel the GenZ movement. The govt should know that they are playing with fire by trying to stifle this peaceful movement

मोदी जी अपने मंत्रियों और मुख्यमंत्रियों को ज़बरदस्ती अपनी मन की बात सुनने के लिए बच्चों की तरह बैठाते हैं! किसी को कोई इंटरेस्ट नहीं है, लेकिन ज़बरदस्ती स्कूल के बच्चों की तरह, उनके मन की बकवास सुननी पड़ती है!

An instructive read on one form of corruption in Indian judiciary. A journal paper published in 2021 with statistical data to support its findings.

Archives | Surya Kant faces allegations of grave misconduct. In 2012, a real-estate agent accused the judge of having participated in illegal property dealings involving undervaluation and cash transactions worth several crores. In 2017, a prisoner in Punjab filed a complaint listing eight cases heard by Kant, and alleged that the judge had accepted bribes to grant bail in these. Though these complaints have been sitting with the collegium for over six years, Kant remained a judge at the Punjab and Haryana High Court till October 2018, when he was appointed the chief justice of Himachal Pradesh High Court. The collegium recommended his name for the post even though the questions arising from the complaint had not been resolved, and according to a former Supreme Court judge, it will do so again—this time, for elevation to the apex court.

Sanghi thugs in Varanasi went to check licences of meat shops.

Eventually, they were chased away by locals.

Kotdwar's Deepak has started a beautiful trend. Need to fight back these clowns.

Statement of the Campaign for Judicial Accountability & reforms on the unconscionable statements made by the CJI against the poor& marginalised during hearings of recent cases regarding minimum wages to domestic workers& the new UGC regulations re harassment of SC/ST/OBC students

[Prashant Bhushan @pbhushan1]

Very unfortunate remarks made by the CJI against Minimum wages for domestic workers& against trade unions. Totally unwarranted & unjustified! https://t.co/Rc7fA0RcB4

Dear @realDonaldTrump,
This is an urgent request for HELP. This image from @Reuters shows just how bad things are in Iran right now.
🚨People are being shot dead & abducted by masked agents.
🚨They are being taken to unknown detention centres - where women are being sexually abused.
🚨 Protestors are facing the wrath of the Govt & even filming these agents could land u in trouble.
🚨 There is an attempt to control the flow of information and twist the truth.
Mr Trump, the nation of Iran has been taken over by a ageing dictator (who by many accounts is also a child predator)...who wants absolute control over the nation.
Such authoritarian action within the nation could soon spiral outside as well - resulting in global shockwaves.
Requesting you Sir - as the leader of the free world, champion of global democracy & torchbearer of Human Rights to intervene and end this evil regime of Iran.

Gulfisha Fatima, Meeran Haider, Shifa Ur Rehman, Md. Saleem Khan, and one other GRANTED BAIL!

[Saurav Das @SauravDassss]

#UmarKhalidBailPlea: Can you fathom the absurdity of this? The Supreme Court of India says "continued detention has not crossed constitutional impermissibility to override the statutory embargo as against them" in the case of Umar Khalid and Sharjeel Imam.

In other words, Justice Aravind Kumar means that although a constitutional court can grant bail if the period of incarceration is long, unjustified, or disproportionate, in the case of Khalid and other, the time in jail is NOT YET long enough, the delay is NOT YET shocking or unconstitutional, and that Article 21 right to life and liberty has NOT BEEN VIOLATED yet!

The constitutional right to liberty has NOT reached a level STRONG ENOUGH to defeat the draconian UAPA bail prohibition! FIVE YEARS in jail without possibility of trial starting is not good enough for Hon'ble Lordships Justice Aravind Kumar and Prasanna Varale!

[Saurav Das @SauravDassss]

The Supreme Court of India has acted in the MOST CRUEL manner in the bail plea of Umar Khalid. It has not just rejected his plea, but also, effectively, RESTRICTED him from applying for bail for the next ONE YEAR! What a terrible, terrible day for democracy.

SHAME! SHAME! SHAME!

Sanders: You took on the Democratic establishment. the Republican establishment the president of the United States. and some enormously wealthy oligarchs. and you defeated them in the biggest political upset in modern American history. 

You showed the world the most important lesson that can be learned today: when working people stand together—when we don't let them divide us—there is nothing we cannot accomplish

The Digital Personal Data Protection Act undermines RTI and press freedom by letting officials simply classify critical public information as ‘personal’ to deny disclosure & accountability. #SaveRTI

The comments made by the chief justice’s bench while hearing a plea on alleged Rohingya disappearances were contrary to constitutional values, the letter said.
