Tweets and emerging cleats

Tweets and emerging cleats

As tweets began to emerge from protesters protesting against CAA (Citizenship Amendment Act) they wanted to converge at a designated spot where they could unravel the plot. Word came in that CAA was yet to be notified and the day it is dumped for good that day and ensuing season won't be brute. The time is ripe for CAA and NRC (National Register of Citizens) to be set aside so that flames of fury subside. Protests raging across country need to have a coating of calm and peaceful posturing and gathering of people should not be unnerved by repeated hectoring. On Thursday, Dec the 20th the traffic on Delhi-Gurgaon highway went out of control as Sec 144 had been on a roll. A jampacked Delhi-Gurgaon highway shared space on news channel with protests in different parts of country primarily making of those who were in the employment fray.

Demonstration primarily comprising people of varying age group; the protest at August Kranti Maidan in Mumbai on Thursday, Dec 20th kept everyone in the loop. Peaceful by all sorts, the August Kranti Maidan gathering wanted rollback of CAA and and non application of NRC across the country, and none of the acts that could ignite violence inventory.

Word came in internet services had been shut in parts of UP and other disturbed places, it was the long standing rumour that led to vandalism with most arson elements covering their faces. Rumours in times of crisis spells doom, it is time to bid goodbye to violence and emerging ruin. Word emerged that stock markets had opened at a record high on Friday as facts emerged that arson and hysteria is an aberration in a nation as diverse as India. Once CAA and NRC become history, India would be welcome by those who would celebrate and see the country on a growth trajectory.  The Govt of the day needs to put it in black and white that CAA and NRC would be set aside and let assembled innovative flight of imagination glide.
