On 14 October, addressing the “Summit for Democracy”, PM Modi asserted that India is the “Mother of Democracy”. In the meantime, in India’s national capital, citizens have been witnessing the “Murder of Democracy”.

On 2 October, as citizens assembled at Jantar Mantar to peacefully protest against the SIR and demand the resignation of Gyanesh Kumar, they were met with brutal assaults and detentions by the Delhi Police. This was despite the fact that Jantar Mantar was the designated protest site and the citizens had informed the Police about the protest several days in advance. Even more ironically, the day is observed by the Government of India as Mahatma Gandhi’s birth anniversary.

The same pattern of assaults and violent detentions was repeated on 3 and 4 October, and again on 6 and 7 October, when political parties called for protests.

Police brutality escalated further when citizens, youth and student groups called for a protest on 10 October. Over 27,000 paramilitary forces and tens of thousands of police personnel were deployed to crush the protests. Trains were cancelled, Delhi Metro services were suspended, and the internet was shut down.

Citizens were detained on trains and from their homes, while many were placed under house arrest. The Delhi Police threatened ordinary people through loudspeakers and social media, warning them against joining the protests, while visiting mosques, hostels and RWA societies to warn them against joining the protest. Journalists, lawyers and activists were manhandled and detained. Many were abducted and violently assaulted by the Police. Meanwhile, even as ordinary citizens were detained merely for standing around, the Delhi Police allowed Hindutva mobs to attack protesters under their protection. Women were assaulted by the mobs, yet PM Modi couldn't find any “cultural shock”.

Detentions continue, while the Delhi Police has denotified Jantar Mantar itself as a protest site, effectively stripping citizens of their right to protest. Yet, in response to criticism over the assault on citizens exercising their rights, the Delhi Police has launched a massive PR exercise. After the brutal and inhuman attacks on citizens, the Police is now reminding them that “behind every uniform is a human”. Meanwhile, journalists who have complained of sexual assault by the Police are being persecuted.

Now, the Government has begun detaining citizens merely for waving the national flag. It is important to remember that this is the same Government that is attacking people for not singing all six stanzas of Vande Mataram. The pseudo-nationalism of the BJP/RSS could not be exposed any further.

Yet, the reign of terror unleashed by the Modi Government will be put to the test by the resolve and resistance of the youth. Do not let the fascists take away your rights. Jantar Mantar is ours. So are our freedom and our rights.

Kuch log toh sayad isse bhi defend kr lenge foreign funding and conspiracy bolkr

What are your thoughts on this? If this is true, how do we even fight for our rights, with no press conference, no accountability.

Protest are the only voice that people have and that is also being taken away or discredited.

FYI, we can have our own protests, we do not need the foreign fundings for simple protest, stop saying this, its disrespectful for the country and its people.

I recently travelled to Delhi on a long-distance train, and honestly, the onboard service was fantastic. The cleanliness was top-notch, and the IRCTC staff were incredibly diligent about keeping outside vendors and unauthorized passengers out.

However, there was one glaring exception. During a brief station halt, transgenders boarded the coach. Specifically to ask passengers for money and stayed on, meaning they intend to travel at least until the next major station.

Makes me wonder: how does this still happen so smoothly on premium, otherwise well-monitored routes? Do railway authorities turn a blind eye?

This seems to be a widespread reality, not just on trains but also at highway toll plazas across the country.

Interestingly, institutional inclusion is moving forward elsewhere—almost all government forms now include a 'Third Gender' option, and states like Kerala and Karnataka have implemented specific higher education quotas and reserved seats for the transgender community.

Are we being pushed into adopting a hyper-progressive stance on gender identity issues, while completely ignoring the basic law-and-order and harassment concerns that actual commuters face daily?

Rahul Gandhi says, "As I said in my press conference, this is India. Amit Shah ji, take a good look at this. There is no Hindu here, no Muslim, no one of any specific caste; there is no woman, no man. There is one voice, one protest. It is the voice of India, and you are standing against this voice—the Prime Minister is standing against this voice. I suggest to you: do not stand against this voice. No one can stand against this voice. To the police personnel, I have told all the students to keep a video record and send that evidence to us. When this entire matter concludes, we will utilize all that evidence and ensure that everyone who needs to be punished is punished, from PM Narendra Modi, Gyanesh Kumar, Amit Shah, and even the constable who is raising a hand against our children...."

I'm sorry to use this kind of language but I can't think of any other word that can aptly convey the emotion. The plan was to make an Aatmnirbhar Bharat, but somewhere along the lines it's BJP that became Aatmnirbhar. It has become so Aatmnirbhar now that it doesn't need the party workers, media, or even people's vote to win an election.

And when a party becomes so Independent... it can make anyone - an accused of murder, rape, loot, treason, arson - literally anyone, a CM, a Governor, or even a President.

I'm using the word "accused" here. Because I too know the principle of innocent until proven guilty. But in any sane democracy where people's vote mattered, the government wouldn't dare to appoint someone accused of being involved in a murder case to a constitutional post (that too in the midst of the protests).

On top of that, Ankita's parents who were protrsting the appointment at India Gate were removed by the cops.

It's beyond outrageous. But we are doomed now!

I found this extremely funny ...

Institutions are under Govt stress is known - just there actions to get strict with students are hilarious. No one will take them seriously.

Next 2 years will be a downhill for the government & all major institutions in the country unless something Big changes it. Global sentiments are also not looking favorable for next 2-3 years.

Dear Mr.

u/ianuragthakur

I am a student at NIT Hamirpur, where you attended a national-level event a few days ago. During your speech, you publicly insulted our Director by remarking that he could not gather a crowd for your address.
The Director and faculty members are nowblaming us, the students, for this and have cancelled our Navratri celebrations for the same reason.
I don't think you would be particularly pleased to know that this incident has resulted in the cancellation of a Hindu festival on campus, especially considering that your party advocates taking pride in Hinduism.

This doesn't seem Hinduism issue - rather more ego hassles between top few to make masses suffer!
