Since the French Revolution of 1789, France has had a long history of violent street protests and unrest. People take to the streets to agitate against misgovernance and other political, social and economic issues. The death of a 17-year-old boy in a police shooting is the latest incident to spark widespread protests.
Macron maintained that social media platforms such as Snapchat and TikTok played a 'considerable role' in fueling copycat acts of violence during this week's unrest.
A scuffle broke out between the protesting wrestlers and the Delhi Police, barely 3 km from the new Parliament building that was inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on May 28. Wrestlers Vinesh Phogat, Sakshee Mallikh and Bajrang Punia along with other protesters were booked for rioting and obstructing public servants in the discharge of duty as they decided to march toward the new Parliament building. So, what happened, and who all have come out in wrestlers' support? Watch to find out.
