SIR Opponents To Stage Sit-In Outside Pune Collector's Office On October 16; Police Warn Of Action

The announcement was made at a press conference on Wednesday, where the organisers accused the Pune Police of suppressing citizens’ constitutional right to peaceful protest

Even though we have the right to protest, the government is controlling the police and not allowing us to exercise this right. Why are the police not allowing protests to take place in the city or elsewhere in the country? We inform the authorities before organising demonstrations, but our right to protest is being taken away.”
The organisers have now approached us for permission. We will examine the situation, their demands and the circumstances under which the protest is proposed before taking a decision. If permission is denied and they still proceed in violation of the law, strict action may be taken. If they attempt to disturb law and order, we may have to detain them.”
The authorities should respect the constitutional rights of citizens instead of trying to suppress peaceful demonstrations. People must be allowed to raise their voices against policies they disagree with,
The right to protest is an essential part of democracy. The police should not discourage young people from questioning government policies. We will continue to demand accountability in the SIR process,

'More Than A Middle Power, We Are Powers In The Middle': EAM S Jaishankar Challenges India's Global Power Label, Citing $4 Trillion GDP & Massive Growth Potential | Watch

S. Jaishankarexternal Affairs Minister
More than a middle power, in a way, we are powers in the middle. What would really define a middle power? To use the Prime Minister's words, the countries who have the power to empower,
S. Jaishankarexternal Affairs Minister
It's also today a world of choke points, and you know the tendency to weaponise. We tend to think of rare earths as an example, but the fact is even finance is a choke point. I mean sanctions are a choke point. I mean, people are weaponising their grip on finance or on the US dollar,
But I still think we should not have a pessimistic view about this process of change,
Would India be a middle power? It's not a comfortable description because if you are the most populous country in the world, you have a GDP of $4 trillion, give or take, and you have a lot of growth ahead of you, staring you in the face, then the middle power somehow seems to be limiting itself by that definition,
The middle powers would now each apply their own mind, stake out their own interests, figure out their own policies, and then reach arrangements with each other,
The point, I think, is we are moving to a world where the competition is going to be, to some degree, who has what to bring to the table, and then deals among them saying, you know, you do this, I do this. Let's develop this together. Let's trade this for each other,

In such a scenario, providing better educational facilities, a safe environment, and conducive housing to students is essential,
