How Bengaluru police chose whistles over lathis to ensure peaceful NEET protests

Bengaluru police used whistles instead of lathis to maintain peaceful NEET protests at Freedom Park.

All India Students’ Association (AISA) coordinated the month-long student-led protest.

Protester Amandeep Singh from Amethi contrasted Bengaluru's peaceful approach with lathi charges in Delhi.

Organizers were selective about who could join the protest to avoid controversy.

Public support included food, water, and contributions from writers, artists, and musicians.
