Indian authorities are using abusive methods to crack down on thousands of peaceful protesters in New Delhi and other Indian cities. The protests have demanded the resignation of India's top election official over alleged wrongdoing and the scrapping of a contentious voter list revision process.

As the protests have grown, the police have beat protesters, forcibly dragged them on the streets and stuffed them into vans and buses, arbitrarily detained them, imposed excessive restrictions on movement, and suspended mobile internet services.
