Interesting how in less than two months, the Congress has made a 180 degree turn on its stance on protests and clampdowns:
The Congress slammed the decision saying it reflected the "fascist" style of functioning of the Mayawati government. "How can they deny permission for our democratic right to hold a peaceful march. It is ridiculous," UPCC chief Rita Bahuguana Joshi said.
Joshi said tonight the Congress has made a fresh application for permission for the march on the ground that the party's previous marches have been peaceful.

And now of course, the Congress has done exactly the same thing. They arrested Anna Hazare to prevent his India Against Corruption rally in Delhi.
What do do. We are like this only.
