The CJI made a "cockroach" remark for some reason, which was seen as mocking the youth who criticize the judiciary and the system.
Organic outrage followed. Abhijit Dipke, a social media handler of a political party thought smartly and created a satirical Instagram account called the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP). It was meant purely as satire. Since the cockroach comment was trending in the news, people followed the CJP account on a whim.
Seeing its potential, the political party Dipke was associated with jumped it and took over the initiative. They hired media agencies and influencers to promote the account further by generating hype, curiosity and making it the "in thing." Consequently, more people followed, triggering a bandwagon effect. Soon, the follower count reached crores.
Then, the political think tank behind CJP concluded that they had enough support. They reasoned that if even 1% of their 2.5 crore followers turned up for a physical protest, they could topple the govt, or bring a huge shock at least. A massive buildup was engineered for Dipke’s homecoming to India, mimicking the historical hype of Gandhi’s return from South Africa.
They anticipated such a massive crowd that they expected Dipke to be welcomed by crores of people at the airport. Instead, nobody showed up. Nobody turned up at the protest site either. It was a massive disappointment for a party with 2.5 crore urban followers to be incapable of finding even 50 organic protestors.
To compensate, they brought in the same old compulsive protestors to fill the site, leftist student unions, LGBT groups, farmer leaders, and aadarsh musalmaan groups, but the movement failed to kick off.
Next, they found Sonam Wangchuk, a man with a relatively clean past, apparently no political inclinations, and a public image popularized by a movie (which wasn't actually based on his life, but worked anyway). They convinced him to go on a hunger strike.
The party behind the movement waited 15 to 17 days for Wangchuk to lose weight, ensuring he looked frail, weak, and barely surviving. Once he reached that state, they launched a massive Instagram and Facebook campaign to emotionally manipulate and guilt the masses into supporting the movement through him. To a certain extent, they have been successful.
I don't know if Sonam is aware of it or not, but knowingly or unknowingly, he has become the face of a manufacturd movement.
P.S. Dharmendra Pradhan should have been sacked. I have said this multiple times too. Why? Simply because he is incompetent, not because someone is sitting on a hunger strike demanding it. Wangchuk might be a sincere guy, but the people pulling the strings behind this movement are not. And trust me, if something happens to Wangchuk, these people will be the happiest because it gives them a tragedy they can capitalize on to reignite a dying movement.
As per orders of Hon’ble High Court and on expert medical advise due to the deteriorating health condition of Sh. Sonam Wangchuk, he has been shifted to the hospital for essential medical care.
While complying with the orders of Hon’ble High Court the protestors tried to create obstruction, in which slight commotion ensued, however police took maximum restrain and undertook the exercise safely.
We request the protestors at Jantar Mantar to peacefully vacate the place at the earliest.

I booked a bus ticket yesterday and now need to cancel it. However, the app is showing "No Refund," even though it has been less than 24 hours since the booking. Could you please review my case and assist with the refund? @makemytrip@MakeMyTripIndia

I have participated in STPC 7 days policy challenge. I wanted to enhance my understanding and see things from different perspective which it has helped me to do.
With each challenge my ability to observe and analysis become good which made me to understand stakes
With 7 days of new challenges made me realise that we don't see things wide enough. We miss the details and try to over simplify that made us forget the basic and true pictures.
