India accused of trampling rights in electoral roll protest crackdown

Original: India: Authorities trampling on human rights in crackdown on electoral roll protests dlvr.​it/TVlRM5

Rights advocates say Indian authorities are violating human rights while cracking down on protests over the revision of electoral rolls. Demonstrators challenging the voter list exercise have reportedly faced arrests and heavy-handed policing, drawing criticism that the government is silencing dissent rather than addressing concerns about voter eligibility and fairness ahead of elections.

Why now: Ongoing protests and a tough security response over the electoral roll revision have raised fresh human rights concerns in India.
