CNN-News18 and other such godi channels must IMMEDIATELY STOP this witch hunt against Ruchika. This is neither journalism nor reporting in the public interest. It is a media trial that serves no democratic purpose and only fuels harassment and intimidation against a 25-year old.
This channel, owned by Ambanis, should be prepared to be held legally and publicly accountable for their crimes very soon.
🚨STATEMENT
We are deeply concerned by multiple reports reaching us of students and other protestors being targeted, detained, or arrested by various state agencies, particularly in Assam, West Bengal, and Bihar.
The Cockroach Janta Party had called off its nationwide protest only after the Government of India assured us that no punitive action would be taken against any protestor, either now or in the future, in any BJP-ruled or NDA-ruled states. The reports emerging from these states are therefore a matter of grave concern.
First, we wish to assure every protestor that our legal team is already coordinating with brilliant lawyers in the concerned states to secure the release of those detained and to extend all possible legal assistance. This has been happening from Day 1.
Second, we call upon the Government of India, particularly @JPNadda ji and @DrJitendraSingh ji, to immediately honour the assurance given to us by ensuring the release of those detained and by directing that no coercive or retaliatory action is taken against any protestor anywhere in the country. The FIRs registered ought to be withdrawn too.
The Government of India is also reminded of its commitment to furnish us the written guarantee in this regard by tomorrow, Tuesday, 28 July 2026.
Our decision to suspend the nationwide protest was taken in good faith and solely on the basis of the government’s assurance that it would stand by its word. Any departure from that assurance would not merely amount to a breach of trust with the Cockroach Janta Party but would also be a breach of public trust with lakhs of young Indians who chose dialogue over protests.
Such breach of trust will be completely unacceptable to the youth.
The Government of India is reminded that it derives credibility not from just making a promise, but from the promises they honour.
To the young protestors we say, hold on. We are with you. The CJP continues to closely monitor the situation and expects the Government of India and all BJP/NDA state governments to act with utmost urgency, responsibility, and good faith that the present circumstances demand. We demand that all detainees/arrestees be released immediately, and in any case by tomorrow, and that all FIRs be withdrawn immediately, failing which we shall take further necessary steps.

🚨RESEARCHERS JUST MATHEMATICALLY PROVED THAT AI LAYOFFS WILL DESTROY THE ECONOMY.. AND EVERY CEO ALREADY KNOWS IT.. BUT NONE OF THEM CAN STOP..
Two researchers from UPenn and Boston University just published a paper called "The AI Layoff Trap"..
They proved something terrifying..
Every company replacing workers with AI is also firing its own customers.. Every laid-off employee is someone who used to spend money.. When enough people lose their jobs.. Nobody can afford to buy anything.. And the companies that fired everyone go bankrupt selling products to an economy with no purchasing power..
Every CEO can see this coming.. The math is obvious.. Fire workers.. Lose customers.. Lose revenue.. Collapse..
But here's the trap..
No company can afford to stop..
If you don't automate.. Your competitor will.. They cut costs.. Undercut your prices.. Steal your market share.. And you die anyway..
So every company automates.. Knowing it's collectively suicidal.. Because the alternative is dying alone while everyone else survives..
It's a Prisoner's Dilemma.. And the researchers proved it mathematically..
The numbers are already stacking up..
Block cut nearly half its 10,000 employees this year.. CEO Jack Dorsey said AI made those roles unnecessary and that "within the next year, the majority of companies will reach the same conclusion"..
Salesforce replaced 4,000 customer support agents with AI..
Goldman Sachs deployed an AI coder that lets one senior engineer do the work of a five-person team..
Over 100,000 tech workers were laid off in 2025 alone.. AI was cited as the primary driver in more than half the cases..
80% of US workers hold jobs with tasks susceptible to AI automation..
And here's what should scare policymakers..
The researchers tested every proposed solution..
Universal Basic Income.. Doesn't fix it.. It raises living standards but doesn't change a single company's incentive to automate..
Capital income taxes.. Don't fix it.. They change profit levels but not the per-task decision to replace a human..
Worker equity and profit sharing.. Narrows the gap but can't close it..
Collective bargaining.. Can't fix it.. Because automating is a dominant strategy.. No voluntary agreement between companies is self-enforcing..
Only one thing works.. A Pigouvian automation tax.. A per-task charge that forces every company to pay for the demand it destroys when it fires a worker..
The researchers call it a "Red Queen effect".. Better AI doesn't solve the problem.. It makes it worse.. Because every company sees a bigger market share gain from automating faster than rivals.. But at the end.. Everyone automates equally.. The gains cancel out.. And the only thing left is more destroyed demand..
The paper's conclusion is devastating..
This isn't a transfer from workers to company owners.. Both sides lose.. Workers lose their income.. Companies lose their customers.. It's a deadweight loss that harms everyone..
And no market force can break the cycle..
The AI layoff trap isn't a prediction.. It's already happening.. And the math says it won't stop on its own.
