Think deeper - If someone has access to centralised, booth-level data on electors from the SIR, Census data, and Form 20 results in Excel or CSV format, how easy would it be to use these datasets to design a delimitation exercise that serves their own interests?

Several leaders of India’s “cockroach” youth movement are detained in New Delhi after entering a historic protest site in defiance of a police order, calling for the resignation of India’s election chief over the removal of 130 million people from the country’s voter lists. https://t.co/Gu027UEpwS

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s grip on power in the world’s largest democracy is loosening, as massive youth protests crowd cities across the country and deliver Modi the most serious challenge he has faced since taking office in 2014. https://t.co/ohJ2iROmNW

This past weekend, thousands of anti-government protesters were arrested in New Delhi. A movement that began several months ago, and was initially focussed on demands to reform India’s education system, has now centered itself around the government’s decision to remove more than 100 million people from the country’s voter rolls. “By sheer numbers, this is one of the largest-ever exercises of disenfranchisement in the history of the world,” Yogendra Yadav, an activist and political scientist says. Read Isaac Chotiner’s full conversation with Yadav about the widespread unrest in Narendra Modi’s India and the aggressive action taken by a panic-stricken regime that knows it is losing popularity: https://t.co/fs2npJesLQ

@SinghReetam I have always called him out whenever he is debating on news channels. It ridiculous to call him political analyst man. What kind of political analyst supports brutality against journalists. Duh. GM @RajatSethi86

[Shreya Patel @ShreaaPtl]

@RajatSethi86 @IndiaToday @sardesairajdeep Exactly. Claiming the alumni statement isn't "official" is just an excuse. You could have still spoken up and shown oral support, but you chose not to. Actions speak louder than technicalities. Also I'm not analyst of any kind. You claim to be one. Atleast be good one.

@PreetiChoudhry @gauravcsawant tagging you to make sure you call it INDIA Alliance. Give respect take respect.

Today saw one of the strongest cadre mobilisation by the India alliance - but here are some non political voices - what drew them to a political protest 👇

Female BJP supporters are the biggest pick me types.

I sometimes wonder how much money is spent every single day to stoke one man's ego..

IMPORTANT : food inflation rises sharply in September. For the fourth month in a row, Consumer Price Index above 4%. That might worry the government far more than the opposition protest and fate of the CEC. MEHNGAI is the one word that every govt is afraid of.

even if bjp loses power tomorrow, we need to understand that defeating a political party and dismantling the ideology it has normalised are two completely different battles and the second one is going to be much harder
