Important to note: What I saw outside #UPBhawan today was dramatic, but it was nothing compared to the kinds of police brutality happening in Uttar Pradesh right now, or what happened at #JamiaMilliaIslamia and #AligarhMuslimUniversity University on Dec 15. (1/7)
I wrote about all of that for the @latimes yesterday. What I saw today was “just” aggressive handling of protestors - not, as has been the case the crackdowns I’ve written about, the use of batons, teargas, guns, and in reportedly even stun grenades. (2/7) latimes.com/world-nation/s…
This is Rohool Banka (@rohool_banka) after the crackdown at #JamiaMilliaIslamia on Dec 15. A 25-year-old Kashmiri Muslim, he told me that when police stormed the library he was studying in, he tried to pretend he was Hindu. That’s the only way he thought he’d survive. (3/7)
