“Football Match-ஐ ஒளிபரப்பு செய்தீர்களே...
மாணவர்கள் போராட்டத்திற்காக மெரினா பீச்சை ஒதுக்கிக் கொடுங்கள்..”- மே 17 இயக்கத்தின் திருமுருகன் காந்தி

Narendra Modi has just published another video on his socials. Second video in less than 24 hours addressing the Gen Z. The fear has begun to show, this is unprecedented in his 12 year term as the Prime Minister
#WATCH | “நீட்டே திருட்டுதான்.. இதை தேர்வு எனச் சொல்லாதீங்க.. நீட் ஒரு சூதாட்டம்”
நீட் எதிர்ப்பு போராட்டத்தில் திராவிடர் கழக துணை பொதுச்செயலாளர் மதிவதணி பேச்சு

The Government of India seems to think it can bury criticism of its handling of student protests by ramping up its Instagram and X presence.
What it doesn’t seem to realize is that this generation grew up on social media. If you try to fight Gen Z on the platforms they know best, don’t be surprised if they outmaneuver you.
You don’t win trust with better PR. You win it by listening, engaging, and addressing people’s concerns.
If the strategy is social media instead of dialogue, that’s a losing game.
I think the Modi government has lost its way.
Using facial recognition, cutting off internet access, threatening students with passport cancellations, and even preventing people from feeding protesting students-against your own youth, the future of the country.
How drunk with power can a government become?
If this continues, I believe Gen Z will remember it. Governments ultimately derive their legitimacy from the people, and no government should mistake power for a permanent entitlement.
I again request the GoI. As these protests are resolved, India must:
- Ban social media for under 13
- Moderate social media for under 18
- Regulate social media companies
- Mandate a reporting tool under every post to GoI
- Setup a SM/M monitoring & response cell
- Study & research social media trends & Algo
- Take up propaganda on state media with countries
- Take up anti-Indian SM psyops with partners
- Monitor and control "finfluencers" farms
- Start units that can counter the infowar on India
And I hope India is using the current opportunity to study social media operations, organization, and algorithmic warfare of the adversaries on India.
To take the right corrective measures soon, understanding that adversaries and anti-india cabal have infiltrated SM companies with insiders.
So simple ad-hoc solutions like MPs, or even cyber armies, posting our narrative on Insta now is going to solve little, as algorithm will still suppress one side and amplify the other.

You cannot have both fairness and NEET.
NEET is fundamentally unfair.
While I cannot speak for every state, I can certainly speak for Tamil Nadu. Every political party in Tamil Nadu except the BJP opposes NEET. The Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly has repeatedly passed resolutions and Bills seeking exemption from NEET.
Stop defending the indefensible. #ScrapNEET once and for all.
Look out for my Op-ed in tomorrow's edition of @The_Hindu, where I set out in detail why NEET is fundamentally unfair and why it must be abolished.
The greatest mistake this government is making is treating Gen Z’s anger as a law-and-order problem instead of a leadership problem.
You can silence a protest. You can’t silence a generation whose future is at stake.
The job of a government is not to defeat its youth. It’s to earn their trust.
If reports are accurate that the Delhi Police is trying to link legitimate student protests to Pakistan, it reflects a deeply troubling approach. Democracies should respond to peaceful dissent with evidence and dialogue-not by dismissing it through external conspiracy narratives.
Many Bhakts tell me, “Stop criticizing India. Tell us the solution.”
Here’s my solution: India needs a national mindset similar to LinkedIn’s “Open to Work.” We should become “Open to Contribute.”
If every individual simply performed their professional and personal responsibilities to the very best of their ability-with honesty, competence, and integrity-the nation would transform from the ground up.
That’s it.
@ValliSubrama@darab_farooqui They will not dare because many knows it was all fake. Core supporters are mainly urban middle class who are well set and have nothing to do with the nation or struggle of ordinary Indians.
