Keeping Greta Thunberg and her sensational tweets and toolkit at the backdrop, India observes a fast-growing protest industry. PM Modi coined the term ‘Andolanjeevi’ in his speech at Rajyasabha to describe professional protesters who are trying to maintain perpetual unrest within India

With passing days, such protests are appearing as disguised conspiracies against the land. Anti-CAA protest commencing on December 13, 2019, in Murshidabad, West Bengal, may be tabulated as the inaugural protest that mutated to Shaheen Bagh Model & continued in different parts of India till Covid-19 pandemic took the whole globe into its grip. After almost a year of anti-CAA protests, staged a ‘Farmers’ Protest’. While Khalistani connections of Farmers’ Protest are reportedly lurking around, it’s time to recall & regress a chain of events that happened since Farm Laws were passed in Indian Parliament on September 20, 2020.
Stage 1: September 2020
As both houses of Indian Parliament passed farm Laws, Congress spokesperson Randeep Surjewala briefed to press that there would be a revolt against the said Laws comparable to the Great Revolt of 1857. Congress mentioning 1857 Mutiny was apprehension-triggering. They called for an All India Farmers’ Protest on September 25 which failed to drag media focus as limelight then continued to fall upon the Bollywood Drug Probe. On September 25 Deepika Padukone was summoned by the Narcotics Control Bureau which turned Congress twitchy. Drug probe & its ceaseless media coverage caught Bollywood & a section of Indian political ecosystem jittery which they wanted to come out of.
Stage 2: September-October, 2020
Manisha Valmiki’s death provided scope to them. The Dalit girl of Hathras, Uttar Pradesh, was hospitalised after suffering a reported gang-rape where she died after 15 days. This terrible incident was capitalised to create a counter-hype to drag public-attention from the Bollywood drug probe. A part of Indian Media acted aggressively to create hype on the brutal incident of Hathras. Barkha Dutt tweeted on September 30, the very next day after Manisha Valmiki’s death—”It took a 20-year-old Dalit women’s horrific murder to get our TV channels to De-addict from Bollywood.” The tweet appeared indicative as if the Dalit girl’s terrible death was used to drag people’s notice away from Bollywood Drug Probe. The hype was created to claim Dalits were not safe in India. Sagarika Ghose of TOI tweeted—”Students at @UniofOxford stage a #DalitLivesMatter protest over #HathrasCase. Heartening to see youth stand strongly for social justice #Hathras #DalitWomen Rise”. Thus, a section of Indian political ecosystem attempted to globalise this issue too. ‘Andolanjeevi‘, Dr Rajkumari Bansal of Jabalpur, allegedly a Naxalite, was found to be present in Manisha’s house as her ‘Bhabi’. But efforts failed to raise the fever of protest to the critical point as UP CM was a hard nut to crack. Yogi Adityanath immediately handed the case over to CBI even though Manisha’s family didn’t want a CBI probe. Hathras hype was spanned across October till the festive season began in India.
Would it be illogical to guess and deduce that Farmers arrived in Delhi as soon as the symbiotic deal between them & the international protest lobby was cracked? Whether Punjab Farmers took international lobby’s help or international lobby took Punjab farmers to help create unrest in India is a separate issue for intelligence to explore
Stage 3: November 2020
End November, once festivals were over, Farmers from Punjab, Haryana wanted to enter the National Capital. They were halted at Delhi borders where the protest began. Randeep Surjewala’s ‘Great Revolt’ kick-started hereafter. Prodigious preparedness from Day 1 by protesting farmers’ triggered dubiety amongst keen observers—why & how were farmers so prepared, Greta Thunberg’s toolkit removed a lot of haze & exposed to some extent the secret behind such preparedness. Greta’s toolkit revealed farmers’ protest was orchestrated from November. This info is in congruence with reality as Punjab Farmers arrived in Delhi in November. Before that, they were agitating in their home State Punjab. Would it be illogical to guess and deduce that Farmers arrived in Delhi as soon as the symbiotic deal between them & the international protest lobby was cracked? Whether Punjab Farmers took international lobby’s help or international lobby took Punjab farmers to help create unrest in India is a separate issue for intelligence to explore. However, as Surjewala wished to start a great revolt against Farm Laws as that of 1857, can Congress-Hand behind all these be ruled out? Perhaps not.
Stage 4: Andolanjeevi Yogendra Yadav
Certain figures appeared prominent as Protest Managers, e.g. Yogendra Yadav. PM called such person Andolanjeevi. Yogendra Yadav seems to be exclusively an Andolanjeevi as he’s found to have acted as Liaison Officer in all recent protest events in Delhi starting right from anti-CAA protests. Never winning an Election & with extremely poor Election performance, Yadav faced blatant defeat losing deposit in 2014 Lok Sabha Poll from Gurgaon on behalf of AAP. Later he was ousted from Aam Aadmi Party allegedly for anti-Party activity & formed his Party which never demonstrated any decent Election performance. From antecedents, it may be deduced that Yogendra Yadav orchestrates protests not as a people-centric politician but as protest-professional though the politician remains his formal identity. While there’s no bar being a protest-professional, demarcation between protest & conspiracy is ultra-thin mainly while protests emit stink of huge back end funding. Yogendra Yadav appears to be a potential link between the international protest lobby & protesting farmers here. After January 26, Yadav has been a bit off the show. May it be speculated that his transactions have already been under GOI scanner?
Stage 5: Indian Farmers’ Protest Turned International
While there’s no legal bar in orchestrating events, detailed ginormous arrangements of food, drink & stay at the protest sites incurring astronomical expenses raised questions about the source of funding thereof. Intel-sources revealed international funding of such events (reports of which have already been in the public domain) & Greta Thunberg’s tweet wide opened Pandora’s Box. Not only were there calls for participation in India’s farmers’ protest across Nations but also severe defamatory blatant false-claims about the Government of India & Prime Minister Modi were kept prepared in the toolkit. Farms Laws are India’s internal matters which Parliament of India passed following due procedure. Yet after that Protest Professionals emphasised undue hype dragging international stars to comment on their event. What could be the probable cause of such desperation?

Stage 6: Probable Real Reason behind Farmers’ Protest
Farm Reform has the potential to provide a Brobdingnagian push to the Indian economy. Agriculture alone can feed India. Once these Agro Reforms yield desired output, it is consequential that the present equilibrium of the global economy would change followed by a change in World Order of Global Power. Would anyone deny the existence of enemies who don’t want India to realise her true economic potential? Farmers’ protest’s global dimension is hence, nothing to be surprised of. A large part of the globe is enjoying India’s resources illegitimately which they are aware & conscious of & don’t want India to correct. India’s reform would take away their illegitimate facilities which are unimaginably huge in terms of money.
Stage 7: Farmers’ Protest Failed
Whatever happened on January 26, were contrived & hatched as came clear from tweets of Greta Thunberg. Greta’s tweets have shown the extent of hatching too. She eventually revealed TRACTOR RALLY of January 26 had speculated outcomes ready & consorted reactions to such outcomes were also kept chalked out. However, Delhi Police exercised epic resilience to make vicious plans futile. Rakesh Tikait & a section of Indian political ecosystem went vocal demanding police to open fire at that desecrated Tricolor. Agricultural Minister Narendra Singh Tomar described Farmer leaders’ intention as ‘Khoon ki Kheti’ in his Rajyasabha Speech on February 5. However, not even a single bullet was spared by Delhi Police. Alleged plan of ‘Khoon ki Kheti’ by protesting farmer leaders failed on Republic Day. Did that fact take a toll on protesters’ patience as if their game plan failed & preparations went futile?
Stage 8: Farmers’ Protest 2
After Republic Day, GOI couldn’t afford any risk against the lives of protesting farmers. Delhi Police strongly barricaded Protest sites with concrete slabs, barbed wires etc. & disabled internet connection at Delhi borders for security reasons as every desperate effort for ‘Khoon ki Kheti‘ any, had to be aborted. However, as Delhi Police strongly barricaded protesting Farmers’, a low-intensity IED blast occurred in front of the Israel Embassy in Delhi on January 29 at 5 pm. Both India & Israel decided to investigate it separately. At the beginning of February, Mehbooba Mufti and Asaduddin Owaisi started lamenting against Farmers’ Protest Sites’ barb wiring. Owaisi commented, “Barricade China, not Farmers.” However, on February 5, a Jaish operative arrived at Delhi airport and was arrested by J&K Police. While suspicions prevailed why a Jaish man came to Delhi during the ongoing Farmers’ Protest, Mehbooba Mufti’s real intention behind criticising stable-barricading of the protest site also appeared murky.
Was it impatience due to failure or extreme stupidity that inspired protesting farmers to bring in voluptuous porn star Mia Khalifa in the show? Didn’t Mia Khalifa’s intervention dilute the impact of their protest? However, due to the famous porn star, Social Media received a comic relief after long-drawn unremitting anxiety
Stage 9: Failure Yielded Desperation
Was it impatience due to failure or extreme stupidity that inspired protesting farmers to bring in voluptuous porn star Mia Khalifa in the show? Didn’t Mia Khalifa’s intervention dilute the impact of their protest? However, due to the famous porn star, Social Media received a comic relief after long-drawn unremitting anxiety. Mia Khalifa’s millionaire US Pop Star Rihanna’s tweet took Social Media on the storm. Striking facts came to the forefront that US Popstar Rihana & Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey had an NGO named The Clara Lionel Foundation (CLF). This fact pumped in speculations that perhaps the Tweeter CEO arranged for Rihanna’s endorsement tweet as Dorsey’s negative bias against Nationalists was no more a secret. As big data tech-giants’ role in the recent US Election is already an open secret, their part in India started gathering moss of apprehensions. Apprehensions gained momentum when Twitter initially refused to remove handles & a hashtag (#ModiPlanningFarmerGenocide) which were tweeting misinformation & false-claims about Farmers’ Protest. “Twitter refuses to comply with Centre’s order to block one hashtag, 257 URLs on Farmers Protests; “Astonished” Centre warns of penal action”—reported “Bar and Bench” on February 3.
Stage 10: Anticipation, Apprehensions
Greta’s toolkit exposed the names of two organisations one of which was “Fridays for Future”. The name was peculiar to stir imaginations. Why Fridays? Which people are Friday-loving? Apparently “Fridays for Future” is an Environment Activism Organisation. However, against the backdrop of a fast-growing protest industry & their alleged role as conspirators in India’s Farmers’ Protest, incertitude & distrust is prevalent about FFF’s front office identity. Dubiety is in the air about whether they’re the same people in different names who funded anti-CAA protests in India. After the banning of “Amnesty International”, organisations like “Fridays for Future” deserve special attention to intelligence.
Stage 11: PM Modi’s Clarion Call
After PM Modi’s Rajyasabha speech on February 8, it is apparent that India is prepared to watch more such eruptions which are conspiracies in reality against India’s progress. However, the Prime Minister’s speech also indicated India would take them head-on & won’t retreat from the path of progress. Uttarakhand’s recent disaster, the Glacial Burst in Chamoli, might not be quite a natural calamity but an artificial one. While it’s being investigated & the real reason is yet not confirmed, the Defence Scientists are of the initial opinion that a glacier-burst during winter is ‘next to impossible’. They didn’t rule out sabotage. Apprehensions are on the rise that India’s enemies are trying every possible way to instigate India to make some mistake that would weaken her international support base. However, PM Modi’s speech contained no element of encouragement for them.
