How Gen-Z redefined the language of protest with memes

Gen Z protesters at Jantar Mantar use memes, stickers, and GIFs as a form of protest.
A Subway Surfers-inspired reel showing a protester chased by police garnered 2.3 million likes on Instagram.
Protesters demand resignation of Union education minister Dharmendra Pradhan over NEET paper leaks under the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) banner.
Posters feature slogans like 'Everyone is gangsta, until the cockroaches start flying' and 'Kuchupuchu tum resign dedo na.'
Protesters use costumes (cockroach, dinosaur, Spiderman, Batman) and songs from Michael Jackson, Boney M, and Bollywood.
