    Trying to find something in the mainstream Indian press and all I can find is BJP protests about shirtless AI bullshit?

      Indian media is 99% controlled by the BJP and their oligarch masters. Everything they don’t like is labeled as treason.

      Try searching “Bharat Bandh” - I’m doing that now but the only mainstream Indian sources I’m finding are day-of articles about how traffic will be affected and whether schools will be open. Can’t find a major article about the arrests in Bengaluru or anything.

      Edit - Like, why does thewire.in have a pre-strike article, but nothing about the day of?

      Edit edit - Okay, here we go: https://www.newindianexpress.com/states/tamil-nadu/2026/Feb/13/thousands-detained-as-india-bloc-backs-unions-in-strike-against-centre
