India’s youth-led “cockroach movement” was born just over two months ago as a satirical online campaign. But it has quickly swelled into a formidable real-world political force, bringing tens of thousands of protesters into the streets in the country’s capital in recent days to call for the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan and reforms to India’s troubled education system.

"Mass" might be a slight overstatement, no? In a country of 1.428 Billion it doesn't mean much to get a couple thousand in the streets.

Fuck Modi, though, I feel for Cockroach Janta.
