Join the Twitter Campaign: Arrest-Me-Now if you dare Mamata Banerjee!




Today it is West Bengal. Tomorrow it could be Tamilnadu, Maharashtra; Gujarat, Pune or Bangalore. Our fundamental rights to freedom of expression are under threat. This is not only an Indian specific problem but a global trend on clamming down on social media.

But what can Mamata Banerjee or any government do when lakhs of citizens defy them by twitting Arrest Me Now! Remember, the individuals taking the lead to now take on Mamata Banerjee were mostly the same who were on the vanguard of the movement supporting her successful electoral campaign less than 11 months ago.

Convert democracy’s darkest hour to its finest. Let it be a message to our political leaders, whether the likes of Mamata, Jayalaithaa, Mayawati; Anna Hazare, Kapil Sibal or Narendra Modi that any attempt to subvert democracy in this country through their dictatorial tendencies will not be tolerated no matter how and mighty they are.

We have declared ourselves as an anti-Mamata Banerjee, pro-democracy blog. We urge you to declare your blogs too as one. 

Join us. Join the campaign NOW: Arrest Me Now If You Dare Mamata Banerjee!  Please use   #arrestmenow in your tweets so that it can be picked up faster by the media. This hashtag that has also been the top trending topic on Twitter, against Mamata and the ridiculous I.T. Act of Kapil Sibal!
