Muhfat Bol on Instagram: "When the cameras were rolling and the crowds were roaring at Jantar Mantar, those photos were placed right at the center of the stage.
The faces of young students whose lives were cut short were held up high, used to evoke raw emotion, mobilize crowds, and command public sympathy.
Their tragic stories became the backdrop for loud speeches and fierce demands. But the moment the protest wrapped up, the microphones went silent, and the crowd dispersed, the mask slipped completely off.
Those very photographs—the final, sacred memories of somebody’s child, somebody’s lost world—were left behind like worthless trash. Left scattered on the dusty roads, left to be trampled underfoot, discarded right where filth collects, where people spit, and where street animals wander.
The contrast is as heartbreaking as it is infuriating. How can anyone pretend to fight for the rights and souls of deceased students when they lack the basic humanity to treat their images with dignity once the stage lights fade?
This isn’t activism; it is cold, calculated opportunism. The sheer apathy of using a family’s deepest grief as a temporary tool to achieve an objective, only to toss their faces into the dirt the second the job is done, is sickening.
Not a single person among the organizers or supporters had the decency to carefully collect those frames, protect them, or return them with honor to the families who are still weeping at home.

Verdict: The clip makes a strong accusation, but the key claim about nobody cleaning up is not supported and may be false.
The video criticizes a protest at Jantar Mantar and alleges that framed photos of deceased students were left behind as trash. Available reporting suggests protesters later cleaned the site, so the blanket accusation is not reliable.
Claim-by-claim breakdown
Unsupported (55% confidence): Photos of deceased students were displayed during the Jantar Mantar protest to support the demonstration. The speaker says the photos were placed at the center of the stage and used during the protest, but there is no independent source in the clip confirming the specific display.
Misleading (72% confidence): No organizers or supporters collected the photos after the protest ended. Reporting on the aftermath says young protesters returned at dawn to clean the site, which contradicts the claim that nobody among organizers or supporters took responsibility.
Accurate (61% confidence): The protest site was left dirty with materials scattered on the ground after the gathering ended. Post-protest coverage shows cleanup activity and debris removal at Jantar Mantar, which supports that the site was not left pristine. However, the clip’s dramatic description of the photos being treated like trash is not independently…
