Original: umar khalid

Umar Khalid, the jailed Indian activist and former JNU student, is the subject of a new profile by The Quint that describes him through his prison number, 'Prisoner No. 626710 Is Present', and frames him as a symbol of dissent. The piece examines the man behind the public image as he remains in custody in a Delhi riots conspiracy case.

Why now: Fresh media coverage of Umar Khalid has renewed public attention on his continued imprisonment and his status as a symbol of political dissent in India.
