This is the most hated man in India today. A 70 year old who hounded a 15 year old child and let loose rapists and goons on her and her family.

Remember the truck full of stones that appeared near the CJP protest site in Jantar Mantar?

@ImAvdheshkumar traced the vehicle with its registration number. It was not a stray truck: the Delhi Police had seized it four days earlier

Dear @RahulGandhi,

You should meet Irfan.

He is not a Congress worker and has never sought anything in return. He joined the Bharat Jodo Yatra because he believed in the idea of a united India, and today he is also standing with students in their fight for justice. He chose these causes out of conviction, not political affiliation.

India has countless talented young people like him who deserve recognition and encouragement. A meeting with you would not only acknowledge his journey but also inspire many others.

Letter to students, from Amol Palekar 👇🏽

Dear Brave Students,

I write to you not merely in solidarity, but with gratitude. Every generation inherits the unfinished work of democracy. Yours has accepted both the burden and the privilege of carrying it forward.Albert Camus's Caligula tells the story of an emperor who comes to believe that because he possesses absolute power, he is answerable to no moral limits. Convinced that power alone can define justice, he imprisons himself within his own tyranny. He systematically dismantles every restraint on governance, believing that authority itself entitles him to do so. As I and Sandhya, my wife watched the deeply disturbing events unfold in Delhi, we were reminded of that enduring truth.
despite police crackdowns youth movement expands across the country with humour and fearlessness.

History has taught this lesson repeatedly. From Tsarist Russia to the student revolt of Paris in 1968, from the youth-led struggle against apartheid in South Africa, Tiananmen Square, to the Navnirman Andolan of 1974 in Gujarat attempts to suppress young voices have never extinguished the desire for freedom. Authority may command obedience for a while; it cannot indefinitely command the conscience of a generation.The images of the brutality inflicted upon you have filled us with anguish and anger. A society learns to question itself in its universities. To question those who hold power over your future is not a privilege you seek; it is a democratic responsibility you fulfil. When questions are answered with batons instead of reason, it is not the students who stand diminished. It is the State.
Reflecting on his years in a Siberian prison camp, Fyodor Dostoevsky observed that the civilization of a society is revealed by the way it treats those it imprisons. One might extend that thought today: the health of a democracy is equally revealed by the way it treats its students and citizens. On that count, our democracy failed. In unleashing force instead of dialogue, those in authority revealed not their strength, but their insecurity.If I was not there beside you physically, it was for two reasons. The first one I resent deeply: age has imposed boundaries on my body that my spirit refuses to accept. If I could not march beside you, it was never because my conscience hesitated. The second was a conscious choice. I did not want the attention to drift away from where it rightly belongs. This is your movement, your voice, your moment of moral courage. You do not need celebrity validation. Democratic movements derive their legitimacy from the courage of those at their centre, not from the visibility of those who stand beside them.

Please know that distance has never meant detachment. Sandhya and I shall continue to stand with you in every way available to us. Should this struggle require legal support, medical care, or financial assistance within our means, please do not hesitate to reach https://t.co/ehyjuiThGt are not merely the seeds of transformation; you are its first green shoots. Today you may be called students. Tomorrow you will be known as the generation that chose courage over silence. The future belongs to those who refuse to surrender their humanity. Long after today's slogans have faded and today's rulers have passed, it is your courage that history will remember.

Take care of one another. Guard your compassion and your hope. Do not allow anger to harden into hatred. Stand firm. Walk forward without bitterness, without fear, and without apology.
Affectionately,
Amol Palekar

And today, friends, we found out what happens 😭🪳

[Ludonauta @LudensLudonauta]

I was studying MCPs and this comment really blew my mind.

[Saurav Das @SauravDassss]

I am telling you again—the people of India have LOST ALL FEAR of Modi’s government!

[The Wire @thewire_in]

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

[Mohammed Zubair @zoo_bear]

Delhi police can say it didn't use Shock-batons. But Shock batons were used by RAF gear, which was working alongside Delhi Police and deployed in and around Jantar Mantar.

[Lucky Ali @luckyali]

Rahul Gandhi is a good guy……

Real life Superman 🔥

I think this man is going to be a symbol of the Students' Protest 🪧

[Anish Gawande @anishgawande]

Abish Matthew and Raunaq Rajani detained in Mumbai.

This stand up comedy circus of a government is waging a war even on humour. They have no courage to face criticism. Jokers can’t take a joke.

[Joy @Joydas]

Go watch the press conference of Rahul Gandhi. There are too many gems and great replies but this is my favourite

[Madhavan Narayanan @madversity]

From Bhatta Parsaul to Cockroach Cause detention, via the remote tribal zone of Niyamgiri, Bharat Jodo Yatra or a sipped tea on the roadside,
#RahulGandhi has been consistently projecting the image of a man who mingles with commoners. This defies the dynastic image of distance and privilege his critics accuse him of.
@RahulGandhi is multiply privileged but his agenda is to live it down at least in a democratically symbolic way. That is in dramatic contrast to the multifariously sartorial visual montage and the monarchic aloofness of the uncommonly common man he is trying to unseat from power. Indian politics is full of such delicious ironies.

[Jawhar Sircar @jawharsircar]

This is today's Indian Express report — of how someone who can't show his education certificate is desperately trying to DUMB DOWN INDIA
— by Slashing Funds
— through Paper Leaks
— putting Non-Graduate Smriti Irani as 1st Minister
AND now placing DUMB Pradhan as Minister

[Joy @Joydas]

This is happening now

This is so infuriating to watch.
