Elections & Democracy Protest in London, demanding resignation of gyanesh Kumar.✊🏻🔥

291 Upvotes

Every democracy stands on "free & fair elections". Electoral integrity is the prime most thing for a healthy democracy. If people will start to lose "faith" in the electoral process, and won't respect the mandate, then indian parliamentary democracy can't survive.

It is good to see that our overseas Indians are aware about this fact and standing with Indian youth, who are opposing this tyranny govt. In my opinion, every overseas indian should be concerned about this election commission fuss. Coz it hurts everyone equally. Most of them have their families, house, business and even votes in india. They all are part of this nation. And again it's really good to see them protesting. UK STANDS WITH INDIA✊🏻

Jab jab modi darta h, police ko aage karta h.

Modi teri tanasahi nhi chalegi nhi chalegi.

LONDON — Massive protests erupted at Parliament Square today as thousands gathered for a demonstration led by Indian YouTuber Dhruv Rathee. The crowd rallied against alleged voter list irregularities in India, chanting highly charged slogans, including the viral chant targeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

The event laid bare deep divisions within the Indian diaspora. While Rathee’s supporters demanded electoral transparency following recent political friction in Delhi, a counter-protest simultaneously gathered outside the Indian High Commission to express solidarity with the Indian government. The overseas demonstration has sparked intense online debate, with critics arguing that staging domestic political disputes abroad fuels regional polarization.

These goons never show up when it comes to demanding justice for Hindu Girls like Ankita Bhandari. And why are the police standing and not doing anything while propels liberties are being violated?

Translation: The girl requests them to not film her. The man with the camera says he will not film her but film the boy and the man on call. The man talking on the phone finds out the mother knows. He lectures her mother to not come to him if her daughter falls victim to Love Jihad.

The call is interrupted by another call. He says on the 2nd call that he has caught many non-Hindus. He tells the caller to stop the event. The girl is apologizing to the boy.

He continues the call. It is revealed that the boy is like her brother. The girl is insisting on not taking the boy to the police. The man then says that it is goddess's festival and they should not have sent a Muslim boy.

The man then calls the tent guy.

Rozy is a freelance journalist.

She came into the spotlight when she alleged that a Delhi Police officer, Vivek Bhagat,

molested and sexually harassed her during a protest.

In a newly released video, she claimed that Vivek is attempting to ruin her life.

She stated that she never made any

derogatory remarks against Vivek and that the case filed against her is false.

13 people are in Tihar because of this. It's utter sham.

Protest is a right. Surveillance without limits is digital authoritarianism.

Delhi Police has spent ₹ 15.66 crore on Al-linked CCTV with no law and no SOP behind it. That means protesters get tracked and innocent people get misidentified. Of the 3,000 people these cameras "identified," 20 were already in jail.

The Rs 15.7-crore tender for the installation of CCTV cameras with facial recognition capabilities. The tender, part of a modernization initiative, specifies 338 cameras for Central and New Delhi. Concerns have been raised regarding the procurement process and surveillance safeguards. Installation is expected to commence in December 2026 or January 2027.

Elections & Democracy Yesterday, ECI councel in SC said we lost the vote counting video in an assembly election dispute case. Is election commission hiding something?

407 Upvotes

Yesterday, supreme court reprimanded election commission of India for not producing election counting video.

It's an election results related dispute matter in supreme cout. In which, the congress candidate T D rajegoda had won the sringeri assembly seat in Karnataka by a margin of 201 votes. But the bjp candidate challenged this in the Karnataka high court. The high court ordered a recount of postal ballot votes and re-verification of 279 rejected postal ballot votes. In recounting, the congress candidate lost the election by 255 votes.

Then the congress candidate approached the supreme court contending that the high court had only ordered the re-verification of 279 rejected postal ballots, but the returning official illegally reconsidered more postal ballots, which had gone to the BJP candidate.

Then, the supreme court asked for "observers report" as well as the video recordings of 2023 vote counting and recent counting.

The ECI councel said, it was unable to find the video of 2023 counting. To this, the visibly annoyed bench said "how can ECI say that it has lost the its record? Your whole purpose is to hold elections, and you need to have a document... There is no custody of record.

Then bench said... "Whatever there is, produce by the next date of hearing. Otherwise, we will have to draw adverse inference against you. We will not accept these kind of lame excuse".

As per election rules, ECI has to maintain all the rules related to elections for 45 days from the election result. If there is any legal dispute emerge regarding election, then it will preserve all the records related to that dispute as long as case is not settled. And any petition related to election dispute can be filled within 45 days.

So, how can election commission say that they have no record? Are they above the law? Or are they trying to hide something?

The integrity of the election commission is the all time lowest, people are losing faith in electoral democracy. We need to save it.

Critical Analysis & Discussion To BJP supporters that see this post: Do you guys believe that the actions taken by the police and the government in the past few weeks were justified, or do you think the government is drunk on power?

Post image
• Upvotes

I feel that the members of the ruling party don't realize the consequences of their actions, and they're only asking for trouble by not engaging in dialogue with the citizens. I mean, detaining people from trains and flights is crazy already but detaining journalists, and normal citizens who weren't even there for the protests? Taking literal minors to unknown locations after detaining them, targeting student activists and maligning their image in the mainstream media, giving the police a free hand to beat up protesters, sending RSS goons to create havoc and asking the police to not touch them....

And now they're detaining people waving the tiranga! Seriously, if I was a supporter of the BJP then I'd surely be quite disappointed tbh. I keep seeing videos of violent protests in France on Indian RW subs, as if they're trying to justify illegal detention of Dipke and co, yet the protests here have only been peaceful, and we've only seen violence from the state in both the protests against Pradhan and the ECI.

Again, being critical of the government does not mean you're a fan of the opposition party, but that option seems more and more attractive with each passing day. It's not about BJP vs INC, I just want both sides to actually talk to each other because this is not a good look for India on the global stage.

I’ve always had my issues with sloppy AI dramas, but watching one of the biggest media outlets making one, and even going on to “interview” these AI “actors” has me flabbergasted, but not shocked. Our standard of journalism has deteriorated so much - it’s concerning. Not only this, but this drama was deemed so consequential that the Maharashtra CM was invited to inaugurate it. No matter where we are in the political spectrum, I believe we can all agree that there are MULTIPLE very important issues going on in our country that deserve coverage. There was a time we’d see journalists investigate corruption, social issues, food safety, etc. Anjana is one of the biggest journalists in this country, with an immense reach, and platform - it’s disheartening to see this is how she chooses to use her platform and influence.

Law, Rights & Society Rajdeep Sardesai retorts Baramati MP

92 Upvotes

Recently Baramati MP Supriya Sule spoke about undeclared emergency which was vociferously retorted by Rajdeep Sardesai.

Interesting aspect is, she seems to have forgotten what her party's govt did in Maharashtra, which was in power at the time of covid. For those who are unaware, undivded NCP was a part of MVA, which included undivided Shiv Sena and INC and it's govt was headed by Uddhav Thackeray. Additionally her party also handled the home ministry portfolio.

But when Baramati MP speaks in this manner, she should also answer what her govt did when a Marathi actress named Ketaki Chitale, shared a post which mocked Baramati MP's father and NCP supremo. The actress for sharing the post was jailed for a month.

Similarly there exists a political analyst named Bhau Torsekar, he used to appear for a Marathi YouTube channel named The Postman. In one of the videos for the channel, a YouTube user in that comment mocked NCP supremo.

Eventually a case was filed against the political analyst citing that it threatened the life of NCP Supremo.

An ex military personnel was also attacked when he shared a cartoon which poked fun at Uddhav Thackeray.

In the context of these cases, did her govt declare an undeclared emergency.

When former UK PM Boris Johnson came to India, he went straight to Gautam Adani. Now, American Foreign Affairs Minister Marco Rubio has made a dash to Mukesh Ambani’s house and asked his Indian counterpart to come to Mumbai. Let that sink in. What does this tell you about the current government?
The clown is compromised and reduced to sitting in the PM’s chair while his ministers are busy spreading hatred, fuelling riots and punishing Indian citizens. And we’re getting upset because Elon Musk said, “Dear Prime Minister Ambani, please accept my humble apologies for not realizing that you are the real boss of India.”
When foreign leaders land in India and their first GPS pin is Adani or Ambani, it starts looking less like diplomacy and more like a private concierge service for billionaires. The PMO is supposed to run the country, not make the world wonder who actually owns the remote control.
And now we’re offended by Elon Musk’s sarcasm? Maybe the real question isn’t why he made that joke, but why it struck such a nerve in the first place.

Critical Analysis & Discussion Why did we start caring about minor religious tensions like they matter and acting like we are supposed to care for religious sentiments of some snowflakes?

4 Upvotes

I remember in past people used to look at these minor tensions between religions as kinda foolish, and leave the tensions to those extremists themselves to fight. But these days, I see amplified posts about a Muslim did this in a Hindu temple, Hindus did that to a Masjid, like dude, I don't give a f**k about what those extremists do to themselves, maybe just hope justice is delivered to victim in that isolated case and that's it, because they are no different from any other hate crimes in this country. But these days, those religious extremists started acting like we are supposed to care about these silly incidents and their snow flake sentiments, even people started caring about these stupid sentiments like they are any use to the country. We collectively should stop thinking about these supposedly sentimental things emotionally and stop paying attention to those who want to benefit from these sentiments. We shouldn't be sentimental about any of ts, they are nothing, no use to the country.

And we should even start looking at these like foolish cases which doesn't have any useful impact on this country if they are solved any more than after a hate crime at the end of the street is solved, and even carry negative impact if we, as public who are supposed to develop this country, care about them any more than needed.

1) The bonds themselves are not necessarily unlawful if signed in front of a magistrate, but using those bonds to prohibit future peaceful protests, or treating participation in a peaceful demonstration as an automatic breach, would be constitutionally untenable.

2) Section 126 gives the authority to an Executive Magistrate, not ordinarily to a police officer acting independently. Police can initiate preventive action and place information before the magistrate. Section 170 permits preventive arrest only where an officer knows of a design to commit a cognisable offense and believes that it cannot otherwise be prevented. Such arrest cannot ordinarily extend beyond 24 hours without separate legal authorization.

3) Keeping the peace is not the same as refraining from protest. The prescribed peace bond language in Form 13 prohibits committing a breach of peace or acts likely to occasion one. It does not prohibit attending political gatherings, shouting lawful slogans, or expressing disagreement with the government.
