🚩 Comrades attended a demonstration at the Indian High Commission in London in solidarity with Gen Z protests in India
The protest was called by the South Asia Solidarity Group and Cambridge South Asia Forum Against Hindutva to support the Jantar Mantar youth protests in Delhi.
In June-July the 'Cockroach Janata Party' youth movement and left wing groups organised huge protests against the mishandling and distortion of national student examination results.
Protests in early October have flared up again, demonstrating against attempts by the BJP government to strike millions of voters off the electoral register under the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) measures overseen by the Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. The police have reacted with repression and violence, arresting protest leaders and banning demonstrations in the Jantar Mantar plaza. Hundreds of leaders of political parties were arrested on 10 October including almost the entire central leadership of the Communist Party of India (Marxist).
Scrap the SIR! Gyanesh Kumar must go! Free the political prisoners!
