Rahul Gandhi Launches Satyagraha Platform to Map Protests Across India
Rahul Gandhi launched a website called Satyagraha for people involved in protests across India.
People can use it to share what they are protesting about and the name of their group.
Their stories are meant to appear on a map with other movements.
This may help people find others who are working on similar problems.
Gandhi mentioned issues such as farming, education, women’s safety and rising prices.
People can also say if they want help.
Gandhi said he and his team would look at submissions and try to support some causes.
He said more than 10,000 people and groups had submitted stories in the first nine hours.
Rahul Gandhi launched the Satyagraha digital platform on Saturday to collect and map issue-based protests across India.
Users can submit their name, group and cause, view similar movements on a map, and indicate whether they seek assistance.
Gandhi cited struggles involving students, farmers, Adivasis, Dalits, women, land, education, exams, price rises and other issues.
