Viral videos from Mizoram and Bengaluru have captured widespread attention across social media platforms, showcasing remarkably organised and disciplined public demonstrations. This approach stands in stark contrast to the rising tensions unfolding at the protest site in Delhi.
“Not like your Delhi police, babe. They protect us,” a woman wrote while sharing a video from Mizoram. The video shows snippets from the scene where the protestors are seen holding placards and presenting their demands. The police are seen standing in a line in front of the demonstrators, while helping regular traffic navigate the area.
“This is one way of making public leave after protests! See how @blrcitypolice did NOT use lathi. In fact the lady constables very kindly said, ‘it's going to rain guys, get back home safe’,” another person wrote in a video.
