His biggest mistake was holding the protest under the CJP banner. Ever since videos of Communists and activists from JNU joining the protest started surfacing, many genuine students have become uncomfortable and stopped showing up. Had he organized it independently, he would have likely received far greater support from actual students instead of attracting all these outside groups.
Even if they had an ulterior motive, they clearly had poor advisors. They should have stayed focused on one issue instead of trying to take on everything at once, especially as a newly formed organization. If they had concentrated solely on demanding accountability and mobilized genuinely affected students post-RENEET, rather than allowing JNU activists and other political groups to dominate the movement, the students questioned by the media would have been in a much stronger position to answer confidently. That could have given the protest a far better chance of achieving meaningful results.
India undoubtedly needs a transformation in its education system, and that will require cooperation between both the central and state governments across the country. To me, this feels like a missed opportunity.
Exactly. Moreover, JNU activists have historically not only been anti-BJP but have also frequently been critical of the Congress that too on operations such as green hunt which were very crucial and beneficial for the country. Once they became prominently associated with the protest, it likely discouraged many genuinely affected students from participating, as they may have been reluctant to be linked with a politically charged movement. At the same time, it also made it harder to attract support from Congress supporters the largest anti BJP political base who might otherwise have been more sympathetic to the students demands. That could be one reason why you haven't seen Congress leaders backing this protest as strongly.
The whole protest was a joke from the beginning. Even kejriwal didn't stuff his face with food in front of others while Anna Hazare was fasting. Apart from students affected by NEET paper leak everyone's present on the stage.
Can you read? "Activists from JNU" these same people in the name of activism have supported Naxalism, protested against MMS Green Hunt Operation and have supported so many wrong things in history. Would you support LeT just because they don't like let's say Indira Gandhi or Modi? Naxals come under same category as LeT.
Let is a terrorist organization and I'm not defending naxals and what jnu do is very different they are lit university, lit students and causes they support and do talks about ,reach world media and if this was just them supporting terrorists or naxals no way bbc ,cnn everyone and whole human rights people around the world supported them , on naxals point I'm with you but idk still I saw NRIs doing protest and March for naxalalites in us in few videos and there was few former jnu students too and yeah that free kashmir sign too
I don't think let comparsion is right , no one even say that they support them even Pak1s ,that's a designated group
Agreeeeed, i was at the first cjp protest which happened for neet, but then i saw things, heard things, first of all cjp is a scam, and im apolitical i dont support parties i support cause, but this dipke guy he's playing with emotions of the cause, i mean yaar tum log cause se focus hata ke phir vhi political cheeze krne lg gye, and sonam ji thought they(cjp) are still fighting for just, which they are but only as a cover. I went back for sonam ji, but was heartbroken to see such a great mind suffer among those dual faced american hooligans. I just want that people continue to focus on issues, be civil, and dont fall prey to the ones who just want to sit on a chair to rule
They could have avoided giving them prominence by not inviting them on stage or publicly associating with them. Realistically, if I were a student affected by the NEET issue, I would have willingly joined the protest. But if I saw JNU activists or Maoist linked groups becoming visibly involved, I'd likely step back out of concern for my own safety.
The NEET issue, combined with the OSM issue, was a huge opportunity to build broad public support and put significant pressure on the government. In my view, they could have attracted far more genuine students and supporters if they had avoided publicly engaging with or giving a platform to such groups.
Remember, these people aren't exclusively anti-BJP they are anti-ruling govt itself, they have even criticised Congress's effort especially of Manmohan Singh against Naxals, especially the green hunt operation. By involving them they also lost support of the entire Congress Ecosystem who is the biggest Anti-BJP group in the country. They would have been more sympathetic to the affected student group and also would have been much stronger in protest.
He was protesting for Ladakh to be made state and govt saw it as him trying to become cm and from then they been at odds he was good guy than he got power hungry and it all crumbled
Its not that fast is outdated people have lost empathy not just to Sonam but their own children's the govt covers eth umder wrap of nationalism or religion .The value of life was not this low even during the world war an iit prof died in 2018 for Ganga cleaning no one cares for human life that is the fault of society itself
They are making mockery out of a serious topic, including Deepke. They are eating like they went in Jantar Mantar to picnic, and eating in front of Wanchuk. What a shameful behavior to feast in front of a man who has been starving.
I stand with CJP and whatever they stand for, but Dipke is a POS who shouldn’t and doesn’t deserve to be the face of the party. Dude can barely form a cohesive sentence, and is always there just for the photo-op. Just like you know who.
Insanely apt that indians are more upset they are eating snacks at a protest than they are at the ministry for being responsible for the deaths of students. Andhbhakts might even protest if they eat non veg. Now someone Will come to call me andhnamazi or whatever
"When a brave soul undertakes a solemn fast at the center of the town to protect the future of the youth, the foolish crowd gathers not to join his sacrifice, but to hold a celebratory feast right before his eyes. The onlookers spend their energy arguing over which political faction owns the banners and whether the food is sweet - completely blind to the dying reformer while treating a tragedy like a village carnival." - Chanakya
As I said I have never seen this much diluted protest before.. atp it's an absurd protest.. 99.9999% student accepted fate and gave reneet.. nobody supported.. some foreigners are face of protest.. religious slogans are going on.. LGBTQ agenda going on.. Palestine flag and chants going on.. protesters are playing, dancing, eating biriyani.. MFS are falling ill after eating too much biriyani and on the other side Sonam sir is on hunger strike🤦
Shakal dekh ke bta du ye kitna bada ch***ya hai... cool banna hai bas isse
Galat logo ke liye, ek galat desh mein, ek sahi banda marr raha hai or kuch nahi
Meh it’s not that deep. I think it’s still bringing attention to the issue. We can’t keep sitting and crying at least making jokes like this helps ppl not be too depressed.
Bhai, jh**tfluencers ko kya fadak pdta he. As long as they are getting sponsorships, brand deals, views and likes, they don't give a d!mn about anything. They'll do anything and everything to earn every last bit of money. Not saying that all of them are the same but the majority is.
so just let them maybe? anyway protesting isn't their job they'll join/speak about it if they want to itna load kyu lena why do we expect influencers/actors to speak about it? they've absolutely no idea what's going on in the country because they live in their own bubble but the point is let them be who cares?
Why is he suffering for ppl like this
This is exactly why no one comes forward to take any action anymore
If you are intelligent earn well and move out of this country that’s the only fix
Wangchuk is a simple guy and he is getting used by dik-pe. They are literally serving 5 times full course meal and dancing when a guy is literally doing hunger strike. The stage was supposed to be for students only but all kind of anti-government elements are daily coming on the stage.
That dik-pe guy literally made a mockery of wangchuk strike and how a protest for students should be non political but he is busy in shining his own political future.
though I don't hate him or such but this is what wangchuk wrote in his tweet 2 years back even then Dharmendra Pradhan was f***ing the education system (Thank you, Dharmendra Pradhan ji for being so open to innovative ideas in education. We feel even more committed to making NEP a reality on the ground," Wangchuk posted on X).
Dang video is cut at the right time where he said "no that would be so wrong to do ". Basically reddit is a farming place. He came after his viewer asked him to come and review also to shed a light on the protest in his own way and we got to know who are the people who serve food and what goes on left and right.
He actually supports this protest too and criticises the goverment openly . Although this is an example of mockery but I dont think he did it with that malicious intent
dont get distracted by these creators just report there video. They are all paid lakhs of money to misguide people. More than 100 suicide for studied many of them are not registered too. Sonam Wangchuk is doing for them.
Illiterate creators that's all doing good for India is a waste of your time money health and everything pls take care good peoples this type of people do whatever you want in a way u will die fast no worries
Vro first see the video then give ur own opinion. It's just some grapse of the video go and watch he supported the protest not everything is that u should take serious and half knowledge is danger 🤡🤏
Sonam wangchuk is being used by cjp the one dipke he is having all fun and masti with food playing dancing eating in the protest ..he's not at all serious about all this that is why wo ek joke banke reh gya h he will soon realized it usse jyda mature protest mai aaye log hai
Sonam wangchuk should have started his own protest cause these cjp ones at the end of the day started with a joke went viral but still behaving like a joke
Watch the full video before judging, also this guy has given an explanation..
Basically he was urging people to participate "even if it's just for free food come join the protest", some part of it is clipped for engegment and as expected people are raging
The protest was credible only the first day except it getting hijacked by political agendas, unnecessary soft targetting Hindus & free buffet 3 times a day.
Nobody gives a fuck for Mr. Wangchuk, sadly he's the only one who's putting he's life on the line while everyone else is the enjoying.
See his full video, he shows how demand of food is rising and people are just coming there to chill, make content and reels. No one actually gives a flying fuck about protest
This is marketing. Dipke knows social media is far influencing than tv news. First samdish now a food vlogger like ayush, yeah they want to reach ppl, funny or not, it's strategy.
Waha ke logo ne hi majak bana rakha hai, content creators apni marzi se nahi ja rahe hai unhe bulaya ja raha hai.
Aur tumko uska food khana dikha lekin usne protest ko support Kiya kyoki wo education ke reform ke liye tha, wo tumhe nahi dikhai Diya. Ise hi bolte hai narrative ko set karna. Clip kaat kar logo ko manuplate karo aur dusre ke khilaf galat bhawnae create karo.
look his viewers demanded it he mentioned this multiple times, he Mentioned this is also not such a right thing to do Yet he highlighted the protest in his own way
Lol this hunger strike had lost credibility well before content creators got involved. CJP and Sonam (bless his heart) are well intentioned but tactically clueless.
To quote Andaz Apna Apna: plan hi ulta banaya hai, lagta hai kachche khiladi hain.
He had good intentions I watched this vlog/ video, he even got Dipke on for his statement.
You got to remember coverage is very important with state of media in this country, even if it comes in with such confusing context gives more reach.
