Inquilab echoes on the streets of Iran again, sir, not anymore, why are people saying Mullahs should leave the country?

News India Live, Digital Desk: The history of protests in Iran is old, but the atmosphere created in recent times has attracted the attention of the world. There was a time when people demonstrated only for small demands, but now the anger is directly against the ‘system’. The common citizens of Iran are now raising slogans without any fear, which was unthinkable till a few years ago. After all, why are the people so angry? There is not just one reason behind this anger, but there is a pent-up pressure of many years. Inflation is at its peak in Iran, unemployment has broken the back of the youth and the government’s strict restrictions are suffocating the people. When it becomes difficult to run a household and even in the name of ‘Moral Policing’ there are restrictions on everything, then people’s patience wears out. The reality of the ‘Mullahs leave the country’ slogan is the direct allegation of the agitators that the religious leadership is more busy in imposing its ideology rather than making proper use of the country’s resources. People say that the kind of laws that are being imposed in the name of religion are destroying their personal freedom and happiness. That is why now the slogan is not of ‘Change’ but directly of ‘Exit’. The Iranian administration often tries to avoid these demonstrations by calling them foreign conspiracies and attempts to ban and suppress the Internet. Internet is shut down at many places and heavy security forces are deployed on the roads. But this time the special thing is that the young generation does not seem ready to accept defeat. School-college students and working women are at the forefront of this demonstration. The world’s eyes are on Iran. Is this demonstration the beginning of some big change or revolution? It is too early to say this. But it is certain that the biggest challenge till now is facing Iran’s power. Iranian citizens spread all over the world are also supporting this movement and the demand for human rights has intensified. This story is not just about a protest, but about those human spirits who are ready to endure every oppression for a better and free life.
