Prawez Pawaz, the journalist who filed complaint against Yogi Adityanath for making hate speeches during riots, has died in the jail on Sunday.
A French filmmaker who was in jail with him explains his case.
“The best police forces in the world don’t win against their own citizens, they facilitate them.”
Why cops fail at Jantar Mantar.

this government’s priorities are genuinely fucking disgusting. just two weeks ago, hundreds of lady shri ram college students were on the streets protesting for basic rights, demanding functional CCTV cameras, better lighting, pink booths, security especially around gate 7 & the back gate. women were on the streets demanding basic safety and the government headed by rekha gupta couldn’t show the same urgency.
but just a day before the Jantar Mantar protest on 10th october, suddenly there’s an order to install 1,000+ cameras around the protest site. THOUSANDS. yeah they successfully installed more than thousand cameras in just 2 days. apparently, the government knows how to mobilise resources overnight when it comes to keeping an eye on citizens who raise their voices, but becomes deaf, dumb and paralysed when young women from one of the finest institution of this country demands protection in the nation’s capital.
they have the machinery to watch you, the manpower to stop you and the resources to control & suppress you. what they apparently lack is the urgency to protect you.
the most fucking shameful part? delhi has a woman chief minister, yet women’s safety seems to be the last thing on this government’s priority list. when women demand protection, the system goes silent. when citizens prepare to protest, suddenly the cameras, barricades and police are ready. if a woman becoming chief minister doesn’t make women’s safety a priority in nation’s capital, then what the fuck was the point of having one? and some of you spineless clowns still have the fucking audacity to defend this government & their spineless actions?!!
Just a reminder that during the Emergency there were restrictions on photographing the police.
Now look at how Delhi is being treated. We’re really speedrunning back to the Emergency except Delhi is already being treated like a war zone.
THIS IS EXPLOSIVE STUFF 🔥
Documentary exposing Adani, Mudra and a Drug scandal that was neatly buried by the media just dropped.
In any other country, this would be the number 1 issue, but when you have the govt and news channels in your pocket, nobody will even dare touch or question you.
Brave of Sabeer Bhatia to post this documentary, Soon this will be taken down.
Watch it while you still can.
I think GenZ will remember that as they ran from a lathicharge the gates of a temple shut on them while a Gurdwara took them in, protected them & fed them.
GenZ will also remember that Hindu extremist groups either assaulted them or openly threatened them with no consequences.
everyone is finding videos from bihar funny but no one is talking about the fact that they have started firing at students & protesters with zero hesitation
Along with the hubris of the Modi govt, the other thing that got buried today was the Indian mainstream media. They couldn't figure out how to divide people. Some of the channels made one last ditch attempt by trying to bring in the issue of reservation. Neither their anti-national trope worked nor their pak-chinese agent trope worked. They couldn't bring in the Hindu-Muslim angle either.
The youth of India formed their own ways of communicating and informing each other, while completely cutting out the legacy media. Individuals with cameras reporting day in and day out from Jantar Mantar became the media ecosystem. There was little tolerance for 'godi media' and its antics.
However, this govt is petty and they will strike back. They will do everything in the next few days/weeks to ensure that the next time people have to express anger, it is infinitely more difficult. I have already seen scores of people complaining about how their harmless memes have been censored by Instagram. Expect a backlash in the coming days, and be ready for it.
The fight has just started, it will be a long one.
Hello @DelhiPolice , the Pakistanis and Bangladeshis are marching to the national capital to create trouble at Jantar Mantar tomorrow. These soros funded agents can unleash mass violence in the national capital
No matter what happens, do not use bitchat.
Do not use it at protest sites where internet is blocked as it will allow you to communicate with people near you without internet.
