The feed

What we could actually confirm.

Newest first. Each item carries its sources and a label telling you how far we got in checking it. If we couldn't confirm something, we say so instead of quietly dropping it.

VerifiedOn the ground📍 Jantar Mantar23 Jul, 9:15 am

Sample: sit-in continues at Jantar Mantar for a fourth week

This is placeholder copy showing how a verified ground update renders. Real entries will carry at least two independent sources before they get a green badge.

VerifiedGetting around📍 Parliament Street23 Jul, 7:00 am

Sample: traffic advisory issued for roads around Parliament Street

Placeholder for an official advisory. Items sourced directly from a police or ministry handle are marked official and skip the two-source rule.

VerifiedLegal22 Jul, 4:30 pm

Sample: petition on exam paper leaks listed for hearing

Placeholder for a legal update. Court listings and orders are first-party documents, so they publish as verified with a link to the original PDF.

DevelopingPolice📍 Jantar Mantar22 Jul, 11:45 am

Sample: reports of additional barricading near the venue

Placeholder for a developing item — one credible source, not yet corroborated. These render amber so you can tell the difference at a glance.

What is being asked for

Five demands.

Written out plainly, so you can decide what you think about them instead of guessing from a placard.

  1. 01

    Independent audit of every leaked paper

    A published, time-bound audit of each examination where a leak has been alleged — findings made public, not filed away.

  2. 02

    A fixed compensation and re-exam rule

    When an exam is cancelled, candidates should know within a stated number of days when it will be held again and what happens to age and attempt limits.

  3. 03

    Accountability that reaches upward

    Action that does not stop at the arrested courier. Named responsibility at the level that signed off on the process.

  4. 04

    Transparency in the examination pipeline

    Public disclosure of who prints, transports, and stores papers, and what the chain of custody is at each step.

  5. 05

    A student grievance body with teeth

    A standing forum where affected candidates can be heard, with the power to compel a response within a deadline.

Where things happen

The places that matter.

Status changes daily. Treat this as a starting point, then check the day's advisory.

How this works

We label everything.

Verified

Two or more independent credible sources, or a first-party document like a court order or an official notice.

Developing

One credible source. We're publishing because it's useful, and we'll upgrade or pull it as it firms up.

Unverified

Circulating widely enough that ignoring it is worse than listing it. We could not confirm it. Don't act on it.

Debunked

We checked and it isn't true. Listed so you have something to send back to the group chat.
