This woman has come to Jantar Mantar with her son.
Her husband is part of the Delhi Police force stationed there.
Yet she has come for all mothers and the future of their kids. ❤️
#WATCH | Delhi | On CJP protest, Congress MP Shashi Tharoor says, "When a non-violent protest is taking place, what is the reason for a lathi-charge? Lathi charge is not an act of non-violence. It is an act of violence. I don't understand the logic of this. Similarly here in Parliament, everyone knows these are burning issues across the country. It would be logical to have a discussion on them. Parliament is supposed to be the place where we can ventilate the voice of the people, the concerns of the people. Once we do that, we all know the government has a majority. As the old saying goes, the Opposition must have its say because the government will have its way. They have the majority. But at least let parliament be a forum where these concerns can be heard, can be truly ventilated and voiced, where various people can represent the views of their constituents. Then the government can disagree. But right now, just refusing a discussion is what has led to today's disruption because the opposition wanted these issues up there, wanted an opportunity to talk about them on the floor of the house. If Parliament is not for raising these issues, then honestly, what is it for? I mean, it can't just be a sort of notice board for the government to announce its bills and get them passed with a rubber stamp. That's not what Parliament is all about. It should be a forum where all these views can be heard, discussed, debated as necessary and then passed. The Prime Minister has sought cooperation from the opposition. We'll cooperate if they cooperate. The idea should be that there should be mutual cooperation. Let them permit certain discussions. This has got to be give and take. That's the way Parliament is supposed to function."
- Metros stopped
- Roads blocked
- Internet jammed
- Students lathi-charged
- Complete blackout by much of the mainstream media
Yet 50,000+ people have gathered within a 3–4 km radius of Jantar Mantar
Every dirty trick has failed
You can block the city. You cannot block the anger
Dharmendra Pradhan MUST RESIGN
Arunachal Pradesh students who were unable to come to Jantar Mantar Delhi are protesting in solidarity with Sonam Wangchuk and CJP at Itanagar, Arunachal Pradesh.

I WAS PREPARING FOR THE UPSC, BUT NOW I'VE LOST THE MOTIVATION.
I DON'T THINK I CAN LIVE OR WORK AMONG PEOPLE LIKE THIS.
Dharmendra Pradhan Must Resign
Visuals from the Parliament have security forces taking firing positions. Please don’t shoot at our country’s youth. They’re not making any unreasonable demands. They just want accountability for students dying because of govt incompetence!
How can this be the response?
POLICE IS USING TEAR GAS TO CRUSH PROTESTS
These visuals resemble an authoritarian regime - not a democracy.
Our democratic right to protest for our future, our education is being shelled with tear gas right now.
