This is where the Indian police state is today.
Prof. G.N.Saibaba, an English prof at a Delhi college was arrested and detained for 10 years without trial. Indian courts repeatedly denied bail for him, in spite of the fact that he is 90% disabled, bound to a wheel chair and had major health issues. Finally he was given bail a few months back, but is now dead due to health complications. This is an institutional murder under the #BJP's #Modi government and need to be protested.

Unlawful Activities: How the Indian prison system denies basic freedoms, rights and dignity to political prisoners

Even the UAPA prisoners under the full glare and scrutiny of the media were subject to a cavalcade of cruelties, large and small. This ranged from the denial of medical treatment, to the mental and physical cruelties of high-security prison cells, and even to being disallowed from speaking to relatives in their native language. Bhavya Dore and Sukhada Tatke write.

How 2 Kashmiri Brothers Ran A 10-Day, Social-Media Campaign That Propelled Their Imprisoned Father To Parliament

The campaign for Sheikh Abdul Rashid, or Engineer Rashid, ran not on issues of roads, water or electricity but as ‘revenge’ for his incarceration, his sons promising that their father would be a voice for hundreds of Kashmiri youth imprisoned in jails nationwide.

Arundhati Roy is being hounded by the Indian state. This is a test case for its democracy

That the author could be prosecuted for comments made 13 years ago is absurd – but also a deadly threat to freedom of speech, writes Meena Kandasamy. (Article from October 2023)

What does the death of a jailed Jesuit priest say about India's democracy under Modi?

Stan Swamy had recently published a study of 3,000 people jailed for being members of banned Maoist groups. He found that 97% of them had no such affiliation and that many of their trials were held without lawyers, in a language they didn't understand. He'd filed a case on their behalf in the state court of Jharkhand, where he lived. All of this had embarrassed the government, he said.
