Wow, thank you for setting the bar high. There are definitely some lessons to learn from these defiantly able people. Political paparee bands, take note! See how it's done – elegant, purposeful, and without causing any disruptions to the general public. Kudos to this group for their impressive, orderly demonstration.

Where were the Cops and their water cannons. May be they kept away as the protest march was peaceful. Most protest marchers are peaceful and it is the involvement of the Cops that make the protestors to become little unruly

It's admirable how blind and visually impaired people master their fate, probably without any major financial support from the state! When you see how disciplined these people are, with the help of family members and friends, in drawing attention to themselves, you can only wish that the state would do everything it could to make their lives easier!!! With relatively little financial resources, you could give them joy and provide them with life support! If the state doesn't do it, the many rich people who call themselves Buddhists should earn kammic merits (punna) through good deeds here!
