"I don't like Twitter because each time I open it I see so much hate," said Abdul Rehman, 22, an engineering student at New Delhi's Jamia Millia Islamia University.
One protest on Sunday culminated in police storming the Jamia Millia Islamia University, leaving some 200 injured. "We millennials are always active on Instagram," said Islam Mirza, who completed a masters in business administration at Jamia earlier this year."Whether it is to call off the protest, whether it is to organise the protests, whether it is to instruct students what to do or what not to do to help keep the protests peaceful, we use Instagram as a messenger."
The active presence of film, music and fashion celebrities on Instagram also makes it an appealing platform for young users to post pictures and videos for all to see, unlike Facebook or WhatsApp where conversations are largely private or among a user's close social circle.
