Thousands of young protesters, led by the Cockroach Janta Party and student groups, have staged near-daily rallies demanding Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar resign after a Special Intensive Revision of voter rolls removed about 130 million names. Authorities have deployed tens of thousands of police in New Delhi, detained movement leaders and opposition figures, suspended mobile internet and closed rail and metro links to block access to protest sites.
Protests linked to the Election Commission of India's voter-roll revision have prompted police and security lockdowns in Delhi. Abhijeet Dipke and several leaders were detained on arrival; demonstrations at Jantar Mantar were blocked as authorities deploy thousands of personnel and suspend transport and internet services. Opposition accuse the move of disenfranchising voters; the ECI denies impropriety.
