Experts believe the gun being seen held by an RAF jawan in videos from July 20 is indeed one that could be used to fire lead pellets. | @vipul_reports

Release ALL muslim students , activists , protesters & individuals who have been lodged in jails without even trials for disssenting on the streets, for merely questioning the authority !

This is what resilience sounds like.
They don’t jail strong voices for no reason.

[Free Umar Khalid @FreeUmarKhalid1]

A good day to remember why this government has kept Umar Khalid in prison for six years.

He spoke about education, attacks on universities, and the targeting of minorities. They called him a terrorist instead of answering him. #cjp_पार्टी

Arundhati Roy writes the essay the moment needs with the tenderness, admiration and empathy that this uprising of young cockroaches deserves.

[Kawalpreet Kaur @kawalpreetdu]

Those describing today’s protest as the Biggest protests in recent history often overlook the anti-CAA demonstrations and the farmers’ movement, struggles that were built with intense labour, care, and sustained over longer periods facing violence, repression, and criminalisation.

I say this not out of bitterness, but because such framing risks erasing the struggles of minorities and marginalised communities who have historically carried the burden of resistance under this regime often without recognition. Minorities have repeatedly had to organise and fight their battles largely on their own, only to see their struggles later invisibilised.

Any formation that challenges this regime is significant, and politicising groups that have previously been depoliticised is an important development. Yet, when sections of the elite frame this as the biggest protest, it is important to remember the histories and struggles that came before it.

A 16-year-old first-time protester may not know this history, but many who have been part of these movements do.

[Free Umar Khalid @FreeUmarKhalid1]

As @prakashraaj said, Umar Khalid’s imprisonment is about much more than one man. It is a reminder of what happens to those who refuse to stop speaking.

Six years later, his words still outlive the propaganda. #UmarKhalid #cjp

Once a Kashmiri said , "Darwaza kholo... tumhari jamhooriyat ka janaza nikal raha hai."

[IndiaExplained @IndiaExplained]

In fairness, it's not Modi's fault. He never went to college and likely didn't complete class 12 either, so he has no idea what's at stake in the protests.
