In this episode of Editorial, HW News Managing Editor Sujit Nair examines the critical role of peaceful protest in a thriving democracy. Highlighting historic protests—from Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s 1973 bullock cart rally against fuel price hikes to the Mandal Commission, Ram Janmabhoomi Rath Yatra, India Against Corruption movement, and Nirbhaya protests—Sujit questions the growing tendency to label dissent as "anti-national" or foreign-funded. With over 7,000 demonstrators detained in Delhi and internet services disrupted, Sujit raises crucial questions: Does quashing peaceful protest safeguard law and order, or does it dismantle the democratic rights of citizens? Is the administration prioritizing justice or vengeance As Supreme Court rulings and UN Human Rights concerns bring national and global focus to these mass detentions, watch to explore why keeping the right to dissent alive is essential for protecting the soul of democracy Learn more about your ad choices.
