BRAZIL TOO
An Appeal from the Honourable People's Court of India…
Let us ensure free and fair elections without vote theft, without deleting 140 million eligible voters, without claiming that elections were held in the middle of the night and lakhs of people had cast their votes, and without declaring more votes counted than the actual number of votes polled.
Let us put an end to the practice of turning winners into losers and losers into winners through manipulated results.
Let us stop conducting SIR exercises unlawfully, abolish EVMs, and restore free and fair elections through the ballot paper system!
Poland and Germany have also joined the gang
It’s how the French Revolution started…
How did you not mention Serbia and the successful student overthrow of Vučić?
A common theme across these protests: K-shaped economy, youth unemployment, lack of future prospects for the young, including those who are educated… 🙄🙄🙄
BBC is just jumping around on forced tax payers money. Anybody taking them seriously needs to go see a shrink.
Isn't democracy supposed to solve all problems?
You left out Indonesia.
Covid messed them up. It’s a mental health crisis.
Genz are courageous they are Awake, they will Arise and Sacrifice for the welfare of the Nation.They will not tolerate misuse of Power and Corruption.But I Pray that they protest Peacefully, with non violence, and non cooperation against the Government.I Pray that Justice, Peace, Harmony, Integrity and Dignity is restored very soon by the Blessings of Almighty God.
49% voter india demand reintroduction of ipc 497 adultery is crime
Strictest punishment must be given to all husband taking dowry doing adultery too
Shri ram , wont tolerate sita maiya ki apaman
Do anyone remember about Tianamen Square in China.
1:34 “How can French people do this to France” Someone is unfamiliar with basic French history.
Thank you for the 'jump cuts' in the middle of interviewees sentences, it REALLY makes my subconscious feel the video is progressing. However: when you suddenly jump into a larger face when she says "some placated", doesn't that tell me to pay special attention to the placating?
There is an African proverb that says If a young man does not find his place in the village, he will burn it down to fill the warmth.
Probably makes sense why too many bugs in a jar go to war.
The immature minds and foreign money cause these protest
United by sheer stupidity & entitlement to a whole other level
These countries spend more on wars in far away places rather than their own people
Europe spring LOL
Gen Z should protest against their parents for doing it raw
What unites them?
It's stupidity.
AI
In india just 1000 protesters not even 0.1% of populations.thats not protest bbc…..please check facrs before adding india in list
Where is …
BBC,
DW News,
Al Jazeera,
WSJ,
NY Times,
The Economist (UK)
…so busy, writing about India, Modi, RSS, BJP … again….and again… that they did not see anything beyond this….😅😅😅😅 certainly not in Europe.. which for them, still is the epitome of virtue, and all that's holy and true, in this world…😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Pathetic, these media houses and publications. 😅😅😅 who have missed the plot, completely..😅😅 They misread, and underestimated India and Modi, and hedged their bets on Europe and Trump. The same Europe that is today out on the streets, protesting…
1) No teachers in schools.
2) Leaky classrooms.
3) Failing public services.
4) Cost of living too high.
5) Old & aged, evicted from homes.
6) Cost of fuel, electricity, beyond them.
7) Property rentals out of reach.
The same foolish EU leadership that once supported Trump for oil sanctions against Russia. Fighting soneone else's war, thereby increasing inflation and energy costs in their own native Europe,
Today the EU leadership is seeing the final ignomy of Trump, backtrack … make ammends with Vladimir Putin and sign agreements with Russia for supply of oil and petroleum products DIRECTLY TO THE U.S.A. .😅😅😅 European leaders WERE THE REAL SUCKERS. The big fools, who believed a fickle NATO, mistress called Donald Trump.😅… out of fear, more than anything else..😅
Modi never fell for Trump's lies and stuck to Russia, continuing to buy Russian oil, despite all of Trump's threats and sanctions and public rantings, quietly bidding his time. He was wise.
IN THE FINAL ANALYSIS, MODI WAS THE WINNER..which is why. Europe is BURNING… while India..is on the growth trajectory. 😅😅
Indias goal.
7% plus growth rate (highest in the world)
3rd largest economy by 2028.
Love Modi.
Love BJP.
❤🇮🇳🙏
Bbc please dont try to compare protest in infia with france and albania…,such a rubbush news channel bbc is….just ready with agenda…why dont you tell whats happening in pakistan??? Prople are getting killed there when try to protest but you will not cover them ….just wanted to have false propaganda against india as modi is doing good in india
The new generation can’t take the politics of hatred and
Lies
Gen zzzzzzzz will be remains for this protest ❤they fought like warriors
What unites them? anti-Indian forces funding for anarchy! and your biased reports and selective narrative!
And disrespect to genuine people's grievances when anarchist's hijack such cause!
Nothing will change until the oligarch like Elon Musk, Bill Gates and Adani etc faces the public directly. People should mobilise to there locations. And once these oligarch are located it's people to decide what should be done next.
Relatively nothing happened in India other than of few 1000 strong protest (at it's highest strenght) in the capital last week…it is not comparable to what has happened in france or albania….
When 1% of population control 95% nation wealth n power…new French revolution 2.0 explode more fiercely… history repeated itself…
The Gen Z ploy , and tech anti nationals using crafted algorithms , funding from anti national forces. China could be the ideal culprit, they have funds, tech and local agents as well as Pak help.
BBC never felt better about getting easy content.
Whether in France or in India, far-right, fascist-leaning governments have lulled their respective populations into the illusion of Islamophobia in order to exploit them more effectively.
But young people no longer want any part of this illusion.
Wait till natural destruction starts taking larger toll!
