Social
movement mobilization have taken place across the globe on various
issues. Here's an exemplar of social movement for higher education in
Jonai of Dhemaji district, Assam, India articulated and participated by social organizations,
educationists, students and masses. The above is bottom-up
representation of mobilization of people in symmetry on the issue,
reason for mobilization, communication of grievances through potential
effective channel(the above is Prof Mrinal Miri, noted Indian
educationist) and the outcome of people's mobilization. Social networks
like Facebook, Twitter and MisingOnline were used as communication
tools to diffuse information and updates.The events took place in
April-May 2013. The credit goes to fellow members of
ethnic Mising community and other compassionate participating
subalterns. Despite hurdles created by politicians in connivance with
lackadaisical administrators to block the project, the land allotment
finally took place due to mobilization.(Pictures are not my own.). One
