India: two classes of citizens contrary to constitution

 

Widespread protests against the process which creates essentially two classes of citizens contrary to constitution

India’s Special Intensive Revision of voters (SIR) continues in a brutal deletion of names in the state of Karnataka & Maharashtra. This is despite the widespread protests against the process which creates essentially two classes of citizens contrary to India’s constitution. The BJP govt. Is relentless at inventing new ways to disenfranchise Muslims primarily and to solidify their political position by concentrating voter lists with what it views as supporters from the larger Hindu community. The Karnataka & Maharashtra SIR process report by the Sabar Institute is worth reading.
