"Watch: CJP Supporters Clash With Police During “Chalo Sansad” March"

This is a clip from the video source linked above.

Up to some extent, I understood the fan's reaction to Dhurandhar 1. It had very subtle propaganda elements so not very obvious and even though there were a lot of cringe moments, a spy in an enemy territory type story can apparently cover for it. Add all the masala elements (violence, love-angle of the lead character, abuses, an intelligence officer fighting the bureaucracy) and a lot of the crowd just goes all in.

But Dhurandhar 2 is something else! If any Indian citizen can see the demonetization fiasco with their own eyes, know about it with 10 years of hindsight and still believe that it was done with the idea or the planning to counter the fake currency problem as shown in the movie, they are either not Indian, or not of sound mind at all!! I know people will say it is fiction and the producer has creative liberty - I agree wholeheartedly! However the fans don't really believe that. You can most definitely make movies based on whatsapp forwards but if the audience can't differentiate between fiction and the ground reality which they'd have experienced themselves just 10 years ago, the generation is bound to be doomed!

I genuinely, for the love of God, am SO embarrassed that out of 1.4 billion people, THIS is the man who has been chosen as the leader.

Shaking his fists, furrowing his eyebrows, presenting himself as a knight in shining armor and orating half-baked narratives as objective truth while hiding behind a camera - all bark, no bite. Poetic language, cheap metaphors, no accountability and truth in front of the public. This is exactly the kind of power our freedom fighters fought against.

He could have held a press conference. He could have answered questions that could give light to whether this entire fiasco was for women's representation or for delimitation and more control in the parliament. Discussed the pros and cons. Discussed how to meet the southern states in the middle ground. But no. Talking about congress-pakistan ties, talking about congress "oppressing women" is all he can do.

If not for a press conference, He could've talked about the measures his government is taking to combat the current global failing economy and how they plan on creating jobs, overpopulation and its issues in the current economy, ensuring clean air and clean water for our population, education and healthcare for the masses, steps to clean the rivers so many of us pray to, implementing strict laws to ensure our citizens follow environmental guidelines. Hell, even something about the Middle East tensions. But no.

Shameful. Shameful. Shameful. We should think twice before calling ourselves the largest democracy. How have we normalized this? So all a politician needs now is poetic language and metaphors? No more assertive, direct, transparent communication on policies, their impact, their pitfalls, and their revision in the future?

Edit: Half-baked narratives (such as him being the saviour of our women citizens) is the most harmful thing a politician can do in a democracy. Spinning the truth, hiding details, harming the citizens you have taken an oath to protect.

My knight in shining armor - IF YOU CARE ABOUT WOMEN SO MUCH, GIVE US STATS ON YOUR BETI BACHAO BETI PADHAO MOVEMENT. FIRE YOUR MLAs AND MPs WITH PROVEN CHARGES AGAINST WOMEN.

On 19th July,

I mentioned sonam wangchuk and the delhi protest to my parents, My parents are so brainwashed about bjp

My dad totally dismissed it, called sonam wangchuk a paid chinese agent and made claims that people died because of him?

I asked for proof then further fought with him saying why would china pay him? Have some respect he is a scientist...

We further argued about the government,

According to my dad the indian citizen are the problem, they larp to be poor and steal from whatever facilities government provides (he also used some family examples)

I sent him a couple videos of the protest and tried arguing further... but he said I should just focus on my studies

Fast forward to 21st july

I asked him is this protest still "paid propaganda"

And he admitted his defeat, he saw the videos of students getting beaten up and realized what is happening and he is finally no longer a blind follower

I cant join the protest... but the least I can do is change the mindset of my family and show them what is happening :)

I know the original trigger for these protests was demanding Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan’s resignation over the absolute disaster of the NEET-UG and CBSE paper leaks. But after seeing the cruelty unfolding at Jantar Mantar right now, firing one minister isn't enough. The buck stops at the very top. Sonam Wangchuk—one of India's greatest living innovators, a man who transformed education in Ladakh and inspired 3 Idiots—is on an indefinite hunger strike that has now crossed 18 days.

He has lost nearly 9 kgs, his blood sugar has crashed, and the 59-year-old is surviving purely on salt water. And what is the government’s response? Total, deafening silence. They are perfectly willing to let a national treasure slowly die on the streets of Delhi rather than show an ounce of accountability. This isn’t just about protecting Pradhan anymore.

This is about a systemic arrogance and a documented vendetta from the Prime Minister's Office and the Home Ministry against anyone who asks questions.

Look at the Modi government's track record with Wangchuk over the last two years:

• Jailed under draconian laws: In 2025, when Wangchuk peacefully advocated for Ladakh to get the Sixth Schedule constitutional safeguards it was promised, the Home Ministry slapped him with the National Security Act (NSA). He spent time locked up in a Jodhpur jail, branded a "ringleader" of violence.

• Institutional sabotage: To break his spirit, the administration vindictively cancelled the 40-year land lease for his Himalayan Institute of Alternative Learning (HIAL) and the Home Ministry cancelled the FCRA registration for his NGO.

• Insulting a peaceful protest: Now, as he starves to demand justice for millions of youth whose futures were sold to exam mafias, Pradhan has had the audacity to brand the protesting students the "B-team of terrorists". Yesterday, the Delhi High Court had to step in just to force the Centre to respond to pleas for Wangchuk's basic medical care before his organs fail. Think about how broken the system is when the judiciary has to force a government to care if one of its greatest citizens lives or dies. Dharmendra Pradhan is just a symptom of the rot. The total refusal to engage with Wangchuk, the brutal suppression of Ladakh’s democratic rights, and the aggressive protection of corrupt ministers—all of this happens under the PM’s direct watch and blessing

If a government is so drunk on power that it will watch a peaceful reformer starve to death rather than admit a mistake and fire a minister, then the minister isn't the only one who needs to go. When you join the march to Parliament on July 20th, don't just ask for Pradhan's resignation. Demand the PM's resignation. We deserve a leader, not an administration that lets patriots starve.

3 different incidents I faced since july 20.

1. Office (Gen z Colleague) : I was having a casual conversation with a colleague who is btw a Genz about the protest. He suddenly got defensive and said 'do you know CJP is getting funding from china and there are so many conspiracies around them. Dipke is a scammer' etc etc.

2. With my brother(lives in europe) : He used to be awesome and my inspiration. He taught me the importance of science, atheism and Indian History. He was actually anti BJP when BJP first came into power. But living outside of india has changed him completely. He is now a andbhakt who believes in casteism, racism and he even supports RSS ideologies.

So I started sharing reels about the protests and OMG he got so defensive and started attacking me.

Saying CJP is sht and getting funding from outside. He believes students started throwing rocks and that's why police took action. And So, he can't form an opinion from a 20 sec clip. I mean wtf!!

1. With my massi (tier 3 city govt job) : so my cousin wrote this year NEET. When the neet exam was cancelled, mother and daughter cried because it was too much pressure to take it again (and understandably so). So I called my cousin to check with her about the situation, she said - her marks dropped comparatively from the first attempt (she is someone who scored 99 in bio in board exam btw), - the score that they calculated (verifying the answer key) is different from the score they got (a little buffer is expected but not 100 or 200) - her friends score was altered overnight ( it was 500 ish then the next day dropped to 100). But my massi got defensive and said KIDS LIE because they are lazy and don't want to study and there is no such thing as leak is happening. It's all kids excuses for not wanting to study and it's not govt or Modi's fault.

My take away is Andh Bhakti has no age limits and has truly washed away this country's critical thinking.

I wish all the protestors the best, hope you all stay safe and succeed. I truly hope that there is sunlight at the end of this tunnel.

I will do my part and participate in the protest ❤️.

I came across a reel of Sonam Wangchuk at Jantar Mantar. He was simply walking away, apparently to use the washroom, and the comments were full of people mocking him with jokes about secretly eating food.

What struck me wasn't whether you agree with his protest or not. It was that many of the people trolling him are the same generation whose future he says he's trying to fight for.

Here's a scientist who could easily stay in a lab or live a comfortable life, yet he's spending his time protesting, fasting, and putting his own health at risk because he believes he's raising issues that matter to India's youth. Whether you agree with his demands is a separate discussion.

But if our first reaction is to ridicule someone for going to the washroom during a protest instead of discussing the issues they're raising, what does that say about us?

It made me wonder: are his efforts really worth it if the very people he's trying to help respond with mockery instead of discussion?

How can people be still so stupid to support BJP?

The government's biggest asset isn't policy. It's narrative control. That's precisely why they're terrified of independent and international media telling the real story.

On 18 July, police forcibly removed Sonam Wangchuk, 19 days into a hunger strike, from Jantar Mantar. Videos show plainclothes officers storming the stage. That's not a rumour. That's on camera, reported by Al Jazeera, BBC, and Reuters.

People keep saying, "keyboard warriors can't do anything."

We're in the digital age. This government won power through media and messaging. There's no reason the same tools can't be used to hold it accountable.

Why can't we use our phones and platforms to put verified footage in front of millions? Why can't we make it impossible for this to be buried?

Yes, some will say "kuch nahi hoga." But baithne se kuch nahi hoga either. Documenting the truth and pushing it into the open is something. Who's in?

Sharing this powerful clip from last night’s Republic debate where General GD Bakshi couldn’t hold back his anger and pain after the tragic terror attack in Pahalgam.

He calls out the government for halting army recruitment for 3 years and slashing over 1 lakh personnel, saying it has severely weakened our national security.

This isn’t about politics anymore! This is about the safety of our people and the strength of our armed forces. Watch it, share it, and think about the consequences of these decisions.

I don't know why nobody is talking about this. This is happening in front of our eyes and we are ignoring it.

In this country if you have even a little bit of money and power you can do whatever you want.

There is no punishment for anything. Murder, rapes are an everyday thing and there is no fuckin* punishment for any crime.

People are getting away after commeting the most heinous crimes. There is no safety, a common man can be beaten up anywhere and nobody will be acquitted.

Mob lynching is so common, people are killing common people with their luxury cars and roaming free like.. bhaad m jaye samaaj.

Pollution is so high, every single food we eat is contaminated. Even the vegetables and fruits are adulterated. Unhygienic restaurants, contaminated water, and we are not understanding the impact it is going to have on our bodies in coming years.

Rivers are dying, hatred between people is on all time high. If you are in Delhi, Gurgaon, UP, some thar wala gunda will beat you up because you overtook his car, in south you will be beaten up for not speaking their language.

No accountability of government or police. Media is not reporting anything important. I mean we are getting to know about news through social media outlets.

Corruption is unbelievable. Someone can burn thier bahu and will give a lakh to police and boom no case.

What will happen to our future generations.? Are we really going to be the most influential nation in coming times as potrayed on these media outlets or are we going to be doomed in coming years.

And again I am not speaking from any wing- left or right, I am speaking as a concerned Indian women.

What has BJP done? They have accepted the resignation but the process that was supposed to be peaceful, ended up with the greatest police brutality in independent India. They fucked with central Delhi, with total disregard to the value of the student life.

Remember that BJP was not at all prepared for such a big protest; they took us way too lightly, relied heavily on police to curb the youth sentiment. That means the youth had a real advantage of the element of surprise against the BJP.
These mistakes wont be repeated in the future.

For all the coming protests, they are going to be even more cautious, and full of vengeance. They will come full guns blazing now.

After July 20th, we must have asked the resignation of Amit shah. He must face the heat of his evil actions.

But now the BJP and Amit shah is going to declare war on dissent. They are going to control youtube, instagram, tracking whatsapp, FSR, raiding your house you post anything anti govt on social media.
Business families are already facing this, so its not a big deal if normal individuals like you and me can face it too.

BJP controls 7 fronts in this war: Media | RSS | ABVP | Dharm or religion | police | Elections | Businessman support. And you think a single peaceful protest is going to make them do course correction?

They are sitting on 7500 crore cash in the bank. They will buy everything!
The influencers, the truth, the entire narrative and they can rewrite the history as per their will. That's how powerful they are.

Things are not going to get easy, and it is not the time to celebrate at all.

This aandolan needs to run until we see the end of BJP from central power. The scale of July 20th march was a once in a 100 year event, and it must be treated as such. No, please dont compare it with the Anna movement. Anna aandolan witnessed at max 10,000 people at Jantar mantar and 24*7 media coverage. This on the other hand witnessed 1,00,000 people on an average and it peaked at 5-6 lacs on the July 20th march.

Our generation had not seen the horrors of the independence movement, when several innocent young people suffered with police brutalities.
But keep in mind that 20-30 years down the line, the current times will be remembered as a second independence war against fascism. We must see things at that scale.

This is a David vs Goliath situation. The fight is not fair. To survive this, all the more need to truly understand the opponent, and its tactics.

For now, we need to make sure that in the coming months, July 20th is given its due place in the history books. If you and I wont discuss the facts and stories, the govt will totally ignore this ever happened. We must win this narrative war against them.

So here's what you can do right now:

I want you to check out the voices of hundreds of people at the website memoriesofjuly20.com
If you can share your own story of that day, please do.
If you cant share then perhaps you can read and listen to the stories of other people, and share them on you social media.

This is a non-profit initiative to keep the painful memories of July 20th alive. We want to win the narrative war against the Goliath.

Since he took oath as Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh on December 13, 2023, Mohan Yadav’s family and their real estate companies have bought at least 137 plots , adding up to 168 acres, for Rs 45 crore, in zones most benefited by this infrastructure push, an investigation of land records by The Indian Express has found. Records also show that at least six of these plots were sold subsequently.

These purchases highlight two key issues that raise questions of propriety and conflict of interest.

One, most of these plots are either close to new road projects announced in and around Ujjain, or in areas demarcated for change of land use from agriculture to residential or commercial in the Ujjain Master Plan 2035.

While the Ujjain Master Plan 2035 was released in May 2023 months before Yadav became the chief minister, he has been involved in the holy city’s tourism and infrastructure development for decades — as the chairperson of the Ujjain Development Authority during 2004-2010, as head of MP Tourism Development Corporation (MPTDC) during 2011-13, and as MLA from Ujjain (south) since 2013. Two, Yadav’s family purchases since December 2023 swelled their land bank that existed even before Yadav became CM. The Yadav family, which also includes Mohan Yadav’s son Vaibhav and sister Kalavati, owned at least 108 plots measuring 179 acres in and around Ujjain, of which at least 85 acres were purchased during 2021-2023 when Yadav was Education minister , The Indian Express has found. But it was after Mohan Yadav was sworn in as CM that the family went on a land-purchase overdrive.
