Indian police detain protesters against voter roll changes
Original: Indian police detain several people in Gen Z-led protests against voter roll changes
Police in India have detained several people during protests led by young activists against changes to the country's voter registration rolls. Critics say the revisions could unfairly remove eligible voters, while authorities defend them as a routine clean-up of electoral lists. The detentions have drawn further attention to the demonstrations and fuelled debate over voting rights ahead of upcoming elections.
Why now: Ongoing controversy over electoral roll revisions in India and the arrest of young protesters keeps the story in the news.
