Thanku for supporting our youth and raising voice for them ❤❤.
What about the demand for resignation from the PM?
You'll find the funniest memes in the protest I swear, thank you for covering this BBC. Gezs in India are showing that you can't mess with them
Democracy is dead in India
Good luck to the protestors. As someone approaching middle age it is clear that right across the globe we have failed a whole generation of young people. All youth really want is a job opportunity to earn a living, own a house and to put food on the table, not a great deal to ask for.
Thanks bbc for raising our voices😊
567 SHARES THANX
Youths are against Modi, farmers are against Modi, Dalits are against Modi, Adivasis are against Modi, OBCs are against Modi, and minorities are against Modi, Students against Modi. But when an election comes he wins with a trumping majority. Power of EVM. The only thing CJP needs to put forward is ballot paper election.
Many thanks Ms. Azadeh Moshiri (love & respect for Great Iran, Iran will win the war) and the BBC for reporting from the venue as our TV channels are not reporting anything about such dangerous developments in India !! Thanks again !!!
Students aged 17 and 18 were attacked
Cracking down on protesters, shutting down Internet, shutting down metro stations, controlling the media, Supreme Court refusing to investigate police brutality – that is NOT democracy. Young Indians deserve BETTER.
Carry on Gen Zs . Until modi run to Israel
modi clearly rubble Article 21 of the constitution of India killing RIGHT TO LIFE
poor & middle class people are should be first, in your manifesto
When they get to parliament they should poop to get their message across
Let's unite together ❤
ProblemsAreInEveryCountryInWorld.
Modi giving us Fastrack court is he thinks the students of India to be fools.
Millions of people are protesting against the government.😢
It is a protest of leftist students infiltrated by cadre of Marxist parties, their supporters & anti-national elements. It reflects the death pangs of Communism in India. Communists have been eliminated by people of India dumping them with less than 1% seats (5/545) of MPs in national parliament & have recently lost even their last remaining govt in the Keralam state (province). Communists’ hybrid concealed variant AAP party which is facing defeat in the Punjab state (province) has organized this Cockroach Front Party to save its sinking fortune in the forthcoming election in Punjab. . Some rejected political parties have joined with salivating mouth.
People of India are however very wise. Of the 170 persons arrested committing violence during the Cockroach protests less than 10% were really students & none of them had appeared in the leaked-paper examination! People of India know very well that their propaganda, organized agitations & violence reflect nothing but their existential crisis. They cannot fool people of India & are doomed to face rejection & dejection at the hustings for a very long time to come.
BBC likes to report news like this to destabilise India.
Meanwhile Indian media Times group, Republic, News18 are trying to find foreign links from China and Nepal to these protests. They can't accept the students who committed suicide were fed up by the Indian government doesn't care.
also in Mumbai & across the country
Thanks for covering.
Love from india ❤❤
July cdi + cjp cdi
The British Parliment should have make it clear to its very own Citizens how many students of Indian Politicians are enrolled in British Universties..llke Nimisha Pradhan in Tuff University..USA
Modi-Shah-RSS regime has caused irreparably damage to the Country to benefit few businessmen from GJ. Only gujaratis are celebrating in this regime, while rest are suffering under the GJ model misery inflicted on the Country
Hope they can rise up and change the government like what happened in Bangladesh and Sri Lanka..
