@councilsmv, @transpanrencymv, @ResilientReefs call on the @presidencymv@MMuizzu to withdraw the bill on amending the Decentralization Act. Proposed changes are unconstitutional, disempower local communities, appropriates local capital and poses challenges to local governance.
Highlights from the opening ceremony of “Mahalee Hallu (Local Solution)” – the Local Council Conference on Decentralization, organized by the Maldives Local Council Association (MLCA) and hosted by the Addu City Council.
Met our Constituency Vice President, @Raxlaan and his incredibly strong wife. Raslaan suffered a heart attack after being pepper-sprayed at close range and exposed to LRAD during last night’s peaceful protest. Praying for his surgery tomorrow morning and his swift recovery. Shafakallah #FreeOct3Protestors
Strongly condemn the brutal manhandling and the unnecessary, violent excessive force unleashed on media personnel, women journalists, and peaceful protestors standing up against the #CtrlBill.
It is outrageous that MPs who rarely show up for their constituents suddenly have all the time and energy to push through such a repressive bill.
This bill is an attempt to strangle Maldives’ media outlets and intimidate journalists who dare to expose government corruption and hold those in power accountable. It seeks not only to repress and control the press but also to eliminate media freedom altogether.
We must all raise our voices and stand united to protect press freedom. Free media in the Maldives emerged in the face of an irrepressible pro-democracy movement. We cannot allow those hard-won freedoms to be undone.

As we mark International Day of Democracy, the Muizzu administration gears up their efforts to silence free media.
Don’t let #CTRLbill pass.
