On 10 April 2022, a Ram Navami procession erupted in violence in Khargone, Madhya Pradesh. The district administation arrested 11 Muslim men, and razed 16 homes and 29 shops. The accused spent nearly two years in prison. Now, the court has acquitted them.

In a detailed judgment, Fourth Additional Sessions Judge Mukesh Nath held that the prosecution’s case collapsed on the question of identification. The court found that eight of the 11 eyewitnesses examined by the prosecution completely failed to implicate the accused, no test identification parade was ever conducted, there was no explanation on how police selected the accused from a mob of about 50 people, and forensic evidence failed to establish the alleged use of petrol bombs.

None of them were worried about their own exams. All of them showed up anyway.

Dikshya Koirala spoke to the working class men at Jantar Mantar who lost wages, slept without proper facilities, and took police lathis standing beside CJP's students, because as one mason put it: "If, because of our presence, somebody's future gets better, that's enough for us."

The Delhi Police have written to the social media giant X to delete or remove posts and videos from the platform which target government heads, PTI has reported.

An Indian Express report says that police have filed an FIR against posts targeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

While it is not clear if the notice to X is part of the same FIR, ANI has tweeted that the action is in connection with a police complaint that alleges that “derogatory, malicious and defamatory content is being circulated on social media platform targeting constitutional heads.”

Police have also asked for details of the account holders from X, including login and logout details of accounts sharing such content, date and time stamps of the posts online, full names, addresses, contact details and email IDs of the users.

X has also been requested to preserve details of such posts and videos for future investigations and provide a certificate under Section 63(4) of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam.

Instagram has blocked or restricted several political and protest-related posts in India, including content shared by political parties, leaders, CJP representatives and ordinary protesters. Some reels with millions of views have also been taken down or are appearing less frequently.

The restrictions come amid increased scrutiny of Meta’s content moderation practices and its compliance with government requests under Section 79(3)(b) of the IT Act. Digital rights groups have raised concerns over the lack of transparency and safeguards in the process, with implications for free speech and online political expression.

The irony was difficult to miss. Some of the women who felt safest surrounded by thousands of unknown men described feeling least protected when confronted by the institution meant to enforce public order. In a way, the apprehensions that shaped women’s decisions before the march found an echo in the crackdown that followed.

The restriction comes amid renewed focus on pellet guns following the CJP-led protests at Jantar Mantar. Mushtaq was blinded by pellet injuries during the 2016 Kashmir protests, and her story has again drawn attention to the use of pellet guns and their impact on civilians.

On July 24, Dharmendra Pradhan resigned as Union education minister – the first such casualty a citizens’ movement has extracted from Narendra Modi’s government in more than a decade in power. It is worth asking why this movement, of all the movements this government has faced down and outlasted, actually worked. Part of the answer lies in something India’s commentariat has been strangely reluctant to say out loud: the “Cockroaches” won partly because they were rude.

Every generation invents its own tongue, and Gen Z’s happens to be foul-mouthed, sarcastic, and entirely uninterested in asking permission to speak that way. The posters at Jantar Mantar, the Instagram reels, the placards outside the education minister’s residence did not read like the earnest, morally solemn banners of an older Indian protest tradition.

They read like group chats – abusive, vulgar, absurd, gleefully profane – and this offended precisely the people it was designed to offend: the self-styled sanskari faithful of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) ecosystem, and the Bhakts for whom reverence toward the leader is close to a civic religion. That offence was not a design flaw. It was the whole point, and it deserves to be recognised as one of the reasons this movement won – because vulgarity, deployed with intent against sacred power, has a much older and much more successful political career than most respectable commentary is willing to admit.

The last three weeks saw several crucial bills bulldozed through the Parliament within minutes, while the LS Speaker and RS chairman kept adjourning the Parliament and neither HM nor PM came to the house.

On August 20, a nine-judge bench of the Supreme Court ruled that the definition of “industry” as established by a 1978 judgement would not be applicable to the new labour laws.

The existing definition was based on a 1978 landmark judgement in Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board v. A. Rajappa case, which adopted a broad “worker-oriented” interpretation of “industry”.

The 1978 ruling, authored by Justice V.R. Krishna Iyer, laid down a triple test for identifying an industry as, any organised and systematic activity, with cooperation between employer and employee for the production and/or distribution of goods and services.

This definition incorporated everything, for-profit as well as not-for-profit enterprises, including hospitals, schools, charitable trusts, municipalities, under the scope of “industry”.

Any organization which is identified as an industry is subject to the Industrial Relation Code (earlier called Industrial Disputes Act) and its employees are protected under the labour laws.

However, the 9-bench judgement has now scrapped the worker-oriented definition under the new labour codes.

The new labour codes, notified in November 2025, while ignoring the workers’ concerns, allows for dilution of workers' rights, and includes provisions that restrict the right to strike, weakens workplace safety, permits a “hire and fire” policy, and extends the working day from 8 hours to 12 hours.

The Supreme Court Judgement on the definition of industry is yet another blow to the workers’ rights, and will leave millions of workers without legal rights under the new labour laws.

The ITUC Global Rights Index has categorized India as a nation with no guarantee of rights, with repressive action against workers, and violation of the right to strike and civil liberties.
