Out of jail on conditional bail, Kumar's hour-long speech was full of rustic references, humour and took several jabs at the government and the state of free speech and politics in India. He spoke of “azadi” (freedom) and made fun of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s radio show Mann ki Baat, among other jibes targeted at the establishment.

Kanhaiya’s excoriating speech clearly resonated with netizens, who took to Twitter and Facebook to raise some slogans of their own for the young firebrand, such as “Jai Kanhaiya Lal Ki”.
