Join a union and go on strike
Striking seems to be the next big thing. Striking work or going on a hunger strike is likely to get at least some media attention. Pilots in particular love this way of protest, first we had Jet Airways and now there's Air India. The teachers' strike in Maharashtra, even Nalini Murugan, convicted in the Rajiv Gandhi assassination case, went on a hunger strike recently.
