There are so many big hotels/restaurants around the protest site. The least they can do is open up the doors for the protesters for shelter, washrooms, drinking water. But, guess too much spine to expect from the big money corporates. #JantarMantar

This is not support. He is speaking in past tense even though protests are spreading across India and drawing big crowds. He also talks about not letting the issue get politicised at a time when the govt. is under intense pressure from Opposition parties.

It was such a peaceful movement, feel so sad that it had to take a violent turn. My heart goes out to the students and their families who were hurt. Paper leak is a very serious issue, and I am glad to know n see that the kids of our country have come together for a better educational system, and their parents supported them. I truly appreciate the stand they have taken, showing dedication, sincerity, and keenness to study hard n make their future and a greater, educated India. This andolan, this protest, is the right way to go abt it, n the students have done this peacefully. So courageous and brave. Driven and motivated towards education, this generation will make India proud. This issue is between the students and the educational system, it should not be hijacked politically, the credit should only go to the students of our country, and I am sure the government will also give them all the support n make it a stronger educational system. It’s a win-win situation. Hoping n praying for a positive decision. God bless all of you who wanna be educated. Education should be the next trend and fashion, and should get trendier n more fashionable yr by yr, itna k bahar se log come to India to study and India becomes an educational hub.

Across India, many BJP workers are quietly siding with the youth protesters. “These are our children after all.” “The sympathy of common people is now with them.” scroll.in/article/109444…

🚨The Government has blocked my video. A young student crying after she was beaten by the police at CJP protest. Not hate speech or misinformation. No blood or gory visuals even! It’s a student crying!!! What exactly are we being stopped from seeing?

In that crowd that has assembed in Jantar Mantar, Indian mainstream media is irrelevant. They're 20 something year olds, and for the past 12 years, you've been busy ass-licking the government. As kids who grew in an era when the MSM got sold out to the Ambanis and Adanis, you have played no role in their lives. They are no longer dependent on mainstream media to raise an issue, they would prefer that you sit at home. The only reason reporters are having to go to protest sites is because some content is needed to run the channels so that the advertisers keep paying, but you aren't safe there anymore. If you actually go and stand near the home minister's office, and ask why protestors were beaten up, not only you'd lose your job and but your managing editor would also lose their job. So, essentially your existence as a professional has no meaning at all anymore.

Protests are increasingly being policed not just with barricades and lathis, but with AI-powered surveillance. Facial recognition systems can identify, track, and profile people in public spaces, raising serious concerns for privacy, free expression, and the right to protest. Watch the video to understand how these systems work, why they matter, and how you can document protests responsibly without putting others at risk.

"We owe our students more than outrage. We owe them answers, reforms and accountability. That is exactly what our government remains committed to delivering." When?
Dharmendra Pradhan@dpradhanbjp

LoP Shri @RahulGandhi and @INCIndia continue to shamelessly exploit students as political tools to manufacture disruption during the Monsoon Session of Parliament. Shri @RahulGandhi and @INCIndia chose to stage a dharna outside the Hon'ble Prime Minister's residence , causing inconvenience to the public and disregarding established security protocols. Even after Government conveyed its readiness for a comprehensive discussion, the Congress chose political spectacle over democratic debate. Their objective was never solutions for students, it was disruption for political headlines For Rahul Gandhi, this is not about students. This is about manufacturing confrontation after every genuine avenue for discussion has been opened. Our Government remains 100% committed to discussing NEET and addressing every genuine concern of our youth on the floor of the House. The students of India deserve far better than being treated as props in a political campaign. They deserve certainty over chaos, solutions over slogans and responsibility over disruption. We owe our students more than outrage. We owe them answers, reforms and accountability. That is exactly what our government remains committed to delivering.

Everytime someone makes some good points about why @AamAadmiParty isn’t that bad. Which I’m not buying given their core communal RW inherent nature, the party members themselves come out with reasons not to trust them. What moronic statements.
Atishi@AtishiAAP

This is amazing! CJP and Sonam Wangchuk: One month protest at Jantar Mantar. Modi govt refuses to talk to them Rahul Gandhi: Allowed to protest outside PM residence. In one hour Modi Govt starts dialogue Wah! Kya jugalbandi hai!

BCI website says the exam today was from 11 am to 2 pm. The dharna started well after that. Are we missing something here, Dubey ji? barcouncilofindia.org/info/notificat…

मेरे सरकारी आवास सफदरजंग लेन के बाहर सड़क पर @RahulGandhi जी के धरने के कारण मेरे छोटे बेटे को परीक्षा सेंटर में आधे घंटे विलंब से पहुँचना पड़ा? शायद इसकी ज़िम्मेदारी @INCIndia पार्टी लेगी ?

Sad day for Hiren Joshi, who built and protected Brand Modi on social media, especially Twitter, over more than a decade. Last year, Joshi lost his access to the PM. Today, he must be watching his cherished brand dying its death on Instagram. #CJPprotest
