You saw @narendramodi's ridiculous video saying he forgives 'our daughters' for their abusive language at Jantar Mantar ... now read @AnandTeltumbde's brilliant piece in defence of the profanity of the protesters.

"Every hegemonic order establishes not only acceptable political opinions but also an acceptable political language. Civility, respectability and decorum become part of the discipline through which power regulates dissent: protesters are expected to be polite even while protesting injustice. But history suggests that ruptures typically begin by breaking this linguistic convention. The language of revolt is seldom parliamentary. It is emotional rather than measured, mocking rather than deferential, often deliberately transgressive – and what looks like vulgarity to the establishment is frequently the first public expression of accumulated humiliation and anger."

If anything happens to this young woman, every allegation she has made—including claims of online harassment, intimidation, targeted abuse, and the publication of her photograph by the Jaipur-based handle she has accused, raising serious safety concerns—must be fully and independently investigated.

No citizen should have to fear for their safety simply for expressing an opinion. Selective outrage and selective enforcement erode public trust. The law must be applied equally, regardless of ideology, influence, or political connections.

Silence is not neutrality when someone's safety may be at risk.

EXTRAORDINARY SPEECH FROM AN ORDINARY REHDI WALA

"Govt talks about Logistics, to increase the GDP of the Country, Govt provides low-interest loans and cheap electricity to big businesses; however, Sir, if you do fail to provide Labourers fair compensation basic wages for their labor, then your GDP is of no use." raising concerns for Poor Labourers of our Nation.

"We earn Rs. 500 & bring it home; we buy salt, soap, rice, and flour, and we pay taxes on those purchases too. We are taxpayers of India; we do not live on anyone's charity." He became breathless as he spoke up for the poor laborers, and he began to weep.

"I have heard somewhere that this country is going through a 'golden age,' yet even today, the majority of Indians survive on less than the minimum income and work as manual laborers." his soft eloquent smile will melt your conscience, make your heart shudder and shake you to your very core; you will feel his anguish, but alas ! the helplessness, what can we do ?

"No one talks about the laborer; the laborer cannot take to the streets, Sir. If he misses even a single day of work, the hearth in his home won't be lit, the laborer cannot protest." & he started crying...No government has the right to inflict such oppression and cruelty upon laborers.

As I watched this video, I was compelled to think again, how can a Labourer, a rehdiwala, without have basic education, only using Google, hassuch a deep knowledge of Economic Crisis, spills the beans on sad State of Affairs of India's Labourers after being a 5 Trillion Economy ? Such a Clarity of thoughts on Subjects beyond his reach n Intellectual. Such ppl rise from the Slums, Life-Struggles, speak their heart, wisdom flows in their words like a fluent river, strikes our spinal cord n keep echoing in our Minds till a long time. Now, I feel proud that such ppl exist, Despite being poor, they are the heritage of this land, the future of our country, possessing an ideology that is bright and pure.

Question is, who is responsible for their pitiful life, who cares for such ppl, who will assure justice to them, who will raise his voice for these poor Labourers?

Let's use our Social Media for them, support them & save them from disappearing like snow-flakes in the air of Ignorance.

Least we can do is, Tag all the Political Party Leaders along with this Video & help them make their Livelihood better. I have done my part, have you ?

देशभर के आंदोलनकारियों के सूचनार्थ!

भाजपा और उनके संगी-साथियों के दुर्व्यवहार, दुर्वचनों और हिंसा को सब देख लें। इनका दुस्साहस देखिए कि अभी युवाओं को वचन दिए हुए चंद घंटे भी नहीं हुए हैं और ये भाजपाई अपने इतिहास को दोहराते हुए फिर से धोखा दे रहे हैं। भाजपा के ये संस्कारी नेताजी अपने शीर्ष नेतृत्व के दिये गये आश्वासन की सरेआम धज्जियाँ उड़ा रहे हैं और वीडियो भी बना रहे हैं। अब क्या ये भी डबल इंजन की टकराहट के कारण हो रहा है।

तुरंत गिरफ़्तारी हो!

भाजपाई तो अपने वचन के भी सगे नहीं हैं।

भरोसे का विलोम भाजपा!
