I might, have nothing better to do these days. Though, I wouldn't wanna get in trouble with the police 😛

 

[Sushubh]

if you wanna go, i can tag along. would be weird to go alone. 🙂

 

[x720]

Sure, I'll let you know 🙂

 

[x720]

Heh, my parents refused to let me go after I told them about the nature of the protest 🙁

 

[Sushubh]

lol. np. i guess the weather is also not suitable for a protest in an open area. 😕

It'll be interesting to see how many people actually turn up.

 

[Sushubh]

i am betting on a mega failure. the hot weather is a major issue for folks like us who prefer to spend all our time ranting on twitter in the comfort of air conditioners.

 

[x720]

True that ! 😉

will post the pics soon!!!
yes, there were banners & people wearing guy fawkes masks!!!
also there was no trouble with the police & the protest was carried peacefully with various news channels & newspapers covering the event!!!
the sad thing was the low turnout!!!!

 

[Sushubh]

great. i am ashamed of myself to miss out on the event.

@Sushubh You are right. People just clicked "I'm Going" button in FB, only few actually went.

that is why i do not subscribe to facebook events. they are pretty much a joke when it come to indian audience.

photos from the protest in bangalore.

i saw some photos from the delhi protest. some guys were wearing the hanuman mask instead of the guy fawkes one. i think hanuman mask is an excellent idea for such protests 😀 here in india!
