I knew after 5 minutes of scrolling on social media after waking up that heading towards Jantar Mantar today will result in detention at the least.

I took my time. I am not the fearless kind like some of the emerging leaders. A couple of my friends had agreed to join with me but I knew somewhere that they will back out and they did.

I scrolled and scrolled. It made me sad. And I knew I will not be at peace unless I at-least stepped out to see what was happening with my own two eyes.

I was out for 5 mins, encountered two barricades and started recording a video and the uniformed guards of the govt (delhi police) came and asked what I was doing and bam, a thump on the back of my neck and I was being pushed by a policemen towards a detention bus and he thrown onto its stairs.

No questions, no bodily autonomy, direct assault. Phone snatched.

Driven around for two hours and then been sitting at police station for 5 hours and counting …

No questions entertained.

Do I regret my decision? No. I am glad that some of my fear of the police got out. I have always feared them growing up. I fear them a bit less now.

I am glad to have done my bit. I hope that you will do yours when the time comes. Stay safe out there.

It makes my blood boil seeing the illegal manner in which Delhi Police is acting, they are assaulting protestors on camera, keeping women protestors detained till late night and leaving them far away from city. While all rules related to not assembling is applied against protestors, RW goons are given free pass and police is not even pretending to care when protestors are assaulted in front of them. Narendra Modi gets cultural shock when a 15 year old girl abuses him but doesn't even bat an eyelid when goons supporting him slap and assaults women protestors in the middle of street. There are videos circulating online showing Police beating people mercilessly inside bus, presumably transporting detained protestors. Instead of asking resignation of a mere career IAS acting, we should ask resignation of the real culprits - Narendra Modi and Amit Shah.

They can't shut the whole city and detain everyone everyday, we should come out in even bigger numbers and ask for resignation for the people actually responsible. And ofc resignation is just the first step, final goal should be to improve the whole election process.

First the news was rigged you cant belive its bought buy the Government of india but now you cant even trust social media now let me tell you a real case on the first CJP protest when they were protesting for the resignation of Dharmendra Pradhan one of my knows got a coll from the IT Cell of bjp she had a decent amount of Followers and had a good profile among all social media platforms they told her a detailed script to post about on social media the main idea of the script was to set a narrative that the people students and anyone who is protesting is anti national and there only motive is to spread Violence she obviously refused to do so after some hours they took down her facebook instagram and LinkedIn The fuck is this country on i hate it so much i advice you to leave as soon as you can and get good careers abroad cant even trust anyone if someone supports or speak against the situation please think from your own mind and do not belive anyone and keep this in mind
