why should centralization of arena of protest be so vital in a society which we want to be governed by decenetralised polity?

why should even arena of social protest be centralised, this is not what gandhi taught us, he said we could burn pyre of bought ( not looted) foreign made clothes outside your house and participate in freedom struggle. But today protest at Jantar mantar is obligatory? i wrote about it ages ago, in ” Politics of Articulation, Mediating Structures and Voluntarism” see at sristi.org/anilg and ask yourself, why decentralized protest in incompatible with decentralised polity we want to create in the nation? why do policy makers not pay attention to protest in so called marginal places?
