The #adivasis of #Chhattisgarh have faced unimaginable trauma at the hands of successive governments. @ChhattisgarhCMO you were voted to power on the promise of undoing the historical injustice to adivasis and now adivasi leaders like #Hidme are being arrested ! #FreeHidmeNow
Hidme Markam is a well known tribal rights activist. She has been arrested under UAPA on false charges of being a naxal leader. @ChhattisgarhCMO please get your facts right and make sure your agencies release her immediately. #FreeHidmeNow #ReleaseAllPoliticalPrisoners
जो सरकार एक आदिवासी महिला की आवाज़ से डर जाए, उसकी बुनियाद बड़ी खोखली है। #FreeHidmeNow #ReleaseAllPoliticalPrisoners
हम सभी है मरकम। #FreeHidmeNow #ReleaseAllPoliticalPrisoners

NAPM Stands with the #MigrantLabourers of Ahmedabad Demanding Basic Living Facilities - Ensure the Constitutional Right to Dignified Housing for Migrant Labourers (read: tinyurl.com/2mor74x8) (thread - 1)
I’m seeing a lot of mental health practitioners, mostly young, often in the first 5 or so years of their career, claim expertise in #trauma, or #queerness, or (to my great irritation) #neurodivergence. This is why it’s dangerous -
कई प्रकार की सामाजिक चुनौतियों को टक्कर देते हुए, 23 वर्षीय #शिवकुमार, मजदूरों को अपने हक के लिए संगठित कर रहा था!✊🏽 इस अपराध के लिए वो जेल में बंद है! 30 दिन से उनके दलित भूमिहीन माता पिता, दृष्टि बाधित शिव से मिल भी नही पाए, न ही शिव को कानूनी सहायता मिली है! #freeshivnodeep
It is learnt that as someone with severe visual impairment, #ShivKumar doesn't even have his glasses in jail. He's been in illegal confinement for a month now for exercising his fundamental right to organize workers. Stop Criminalizing the Right to Organize. #freeshivnodeep NOW
If there is one thing #fascists fear, it is the voice of courageous & uncompromising youth, be it in the #farmers, #labour, #students, #environmental, #anticaste or #feminist movements. Precisely why every movement must speak up in solidarity with #freeshivnodeep & #FreeDishaRavi
#freeshivnodeep STAND WITH SHIV! A DALIT DISABLED LABOUR RIGHTS ACTIVIST Its been a month since Shiv Kumar's arrest and noone has been allowed to meet him-- not lawyers, nor family. As someone with severe visual impairment, shiv doesn't even have his glasses with him in prison.
NAPM is outraged at the continued incarceration of dalit & labor rights activist #Shivkumar denying him appropriate legal support. The disgusting pattern of state clampdown on young political voices is one of the worst signs of fascism, we all must resist unitedly #freeshivnodeep
Yes and there is hope sometimes...

6. a mechanism is set up within AMC to study the housing needs & the gap & enable the provision of dignified housing to migrant labourers (5)
4. in-situ fair rehabilitation of all inhabitants is undertaken before any eviction 5. family shelters be constructed for those not eligible for rehabilitation under the Shelter for Urban Homeless scheme (4)
2. appropriate housing with basic public facilities be provided for the inhabitants of the settlements 3. no eviction be undertaken without prior just rehabilitation (3)
National Alliance of People’s Movements joins the migrant labourers demanding through the labour union, Majur Adhikar Manch, that: 1. over 40 slums be registered and notified through due process (2)
And where this does not take place, it is our duty as civil society and concerned citizens to support those affected by the callousness of the state to make their voices heard and demand their due. (7)
We stand firm in our conviction that the right to protest & demand basic rights & entitlements where these are not provided cannot be answered with police violence. Various High Courts& the Supreme Court has stated that the state has the constitutional duty to provide shelter (6)
NAPM Stands with the #MigrantLabourers of Ahmedabad Demanding Basic Living Facilities - Ensure the Constitutional Right to Dignified Housing for Migrant Labourers (read: tinyurl.com/2mor74x8) (thread - 1)
I’m cringing at the thought of the kind of harm expertise will do to #neurodivergent folx when they actually get in a room with that MHP. You can’t affirm someone if you cannot engage with your own limitations. I don’t really know what to do with this culture of lost humility.
Experts - you’re still putting the onus of existing and resisting on us, btw. It’s absolute garbage.
To claim expertise in #LivedExperience is to reinforce the commodification and top-down approach to marginalized communities. This expertise functions as tokenism, & exists to pad resumes not to do #justice in #MentalHealth.
‘Expertise’ is a lot of talking at instead of talking with. It is a point of stasis because it positions itself as authoritative and unquestionable. #Expertise objectifies the margins, subject matter instead of people - centers the expert, erases people.
I’m seeing a lot of mental health practitioners, mostly young, often in the first 5 or so years of their career, claim expertise in #trauma, or #queerness, or (to my great irritation) #neurodivergence. This is why it’s dangerous -
Court: Time has come for our society to understand that sometimes a victim may for years not speak up due to the mental trauma. The woman cannot be punished for raising her voice against sexual abuse.
Court accepts Ramani's contention that Akbar's claim of a stellar reputation was demolished by Ghazala Wahab's testimony, who was also allegedly sexually abused by Akbar. #MeToo #PriyaRamani
I'll make @DelhiPolice a deal. I have no obligation to, but I will happily answer their questionnaire if India will ratify the UN Convention Against Torture.
"Delhi Police sources say they will prepare a questionnaire for Friedrich after questioning Disha, Nikita and Shantanu and are also probing how and why Friedrich’s name allegedly appears in the toolkit case." thequint.com/news/india/too…
The ‘toolkit’ has been conveniently turned into the new cornerstone to discredit the Farmer’s Protests and suppress the voices of activists on questionable grounds of “sedition”, “criminal conspiracy” and “promoting hatred”. #FarmersProstests #DishaRavi #ClimateActivist #Toolkit
NAPM condemns the vicious targeting & arbitrary arrest of #DishaRavi 21yr old climate activist from Bengaluru who was picked up from her home on the 14th February, without informing her family of her whereabouts & remanded into 5-day police custody in Delhi. #ClimateActivist
In the last 23 days, 23 cases have been filed in #MadhyaPradesh& in #UttarPradesh nearly 51 persons have been arrested. This #ValentinesDay NAPM demands the release of all individuals who have been wrongfully arrested under these laws& the repeal of all #LoveJihad ordinances. 5/5
