On the eve of our independence, thinking of every single political prisoner who continues to fight oppression so that we breathe in a just and an equitable nation. Our freedom remains incomplete without their freedom
This is the same Mohammad Irfan...
whose emotional video of him reading the Preamble at Jantar Mantar went viral.
This is Mohammad Irfan's home, where he lives.
A dilapidated, shattered home... but from this very home, he speaks of uniting the nation.
Holding the Preamble of the Constitution close to his heart, he speaks of individual dignity.
Citizens like these are the protectors of democracy.
Thank you Irfan.
TRUE LEADERSHIP
"BJP is backtracking on its promise of no action, no FIRs on protestors, students have been arrested in Bihar, West Bengal and other NDA ruled states. Students are being harrased. Muslims students are being specifically targeted. I will be in Patna tomorrow."- @neha_aisa
‘I was detained and threatened by police’ CJP Volunteer Junaid who supplied food throughout the protest: His family was also picked up by the police. Vengeful & Disgraceful!

VERY IMPORTANT: Justice Madhav Jamdar of the Bombay High Court: “What is this? Are all citizens being made slaves of the Indian government… Can they not stage protests or agitate? What is all this?”. Rejects externment for raising anti govt slogans.
That what should have been a routine judicial affirmation of the constitutional right to protest now feels extraordinary says much about the times we live in. When dissent is criminalised and increasingly treated as a law-and-order problem rather than a democratic right, such reminders from the judiciary matter. Take a bow, Justice Jamdar. 👏👏
SDPI strongly condemns Israel’s genocidal ground assault on Gaza City—launched just hours after a UN inquiry confirmed Israel’s crimes as genocide. With 900,000 lives at stake, this massacre of civilians, starvation & destruction of #Gaza violates the 1948 Genocide Convention. #GazaGenocide #IsraelTerroristState
Can you imagine how insecure must Modi be on the inside?
Not even his birthday wishes are genuine. His team needs to literally reach out to celebrities & sportsmen to make them wish him happy birthday using a pre-defined toolkit. What a sad life honestly!
POWERFUL MEHDI HASAN‼️
-For the past 23 months, we have been lied to..
-manipulated, misled, gaslit..
-Not just by Israel, but by our own mainstream media.

On this day, we remember Gauri Lankesh, a fearless journalist silenced by Hindutva fascists for speaking truth to power. Her martyrdom is a reminder that courage lives on beyond bullets.
