While young protesters gathered at Jantar Mantar demanding justice, political leaders suddenly showed up; not to listen, but to claim ownership. BJP’s Brij Bhushan Singh admitted the government must talk to students… but then accused the Opposition of "hijacking" the movement. Strange, right? The same protest that drew thousands of students became, overnight, a political battleground. And here’s the twist; Singh lives right next to Jantar Mantar. He says he watched the entire protest unfold from his window. If that’s true, he saw the raw emotion, the desperation, the hunger for change. Yet, his takeaway? Politics. Not policy. Not reform. Not accountability. Just blame. Meanwhile, Congress and Left groups are being painted as outsiders; even though students themselves say their fight is bigger than parties. The government says it’s ready to dialogue; but only after calling protests chaotic. So when students ask, “Who’s really listening?” the answer might surprise them. Not the politicians cheering from the sidelines. Not the ones who turn demonstrations into press conferences. Maybe, just maybe, the real change starts when students stop letting anyone else speak for them.
