印度警方大规模镇压德里"蟑螂"抗议活动

印度警方在德里对蟑螂人民党（CJP）组织的抗议活动进行了大规模镇压。该党要求印度选举委员会主席吉亚尼什·库马尔辞职，指控其操纵选民名单13。印度选举委员会否认了这一指控，声称这是例行工作，旨在清除死亡、重复或无资格的选民3。

警方部署了43000名警务和安保人员进行镇压1。蟑螂人民党创始人阿比吉特·迪普克及其他领导人萨乌拉夫·达斯、阿舒托什·兰卡在从孟买飞往德里的航班上被拘留3。超过500名抗议者被拘留，另有50人因被描述为"反社会分子"被逮捕1。德里中心地区的互联网服务被暂停1，警方拒绝批准在詹塔·曼塔进行集会3。

这一镇压行动引发了广泛批评。国会党议员沙希·塔鲁尔将警方部署称为"战争式部署"，比作"未宣布的紧急状态"1。阿卡姆·阿迪蒂亚党全国协调员阿尔温德·凯杰里瓦尔称这比紧急状态"更糟"1。记者在警察暴力中遭拘留和骚扰，国际记者委员会呼吁立即释放所有被拘留的记者1。根据无国界记者组织2026年出版的世界新闻自由指数，印度排名第157位（总共180个国家），较2025年下降6位1。

该组织起源于5月，当时创始人迪普克对印度首席法官的评论作出回应，该法官曾将失业年轻人比作"蟑螂"3。7月，教育部长达玛德拉·普拉丹在该运动的压力下辞职3。蟑螂人民党新任抗议领导人阿津基亚·欣德呼吁支持者继续游行至詹塔尔·曼塔1。印度人民党指责反对派试图"激怒紧张局势"，声称"外国势力"参与其中1。

Indian authorities deployed over 43,000 police and security personnel in Delhi to suppress a mass demonstration organized by the Cockroach People's Party (CJP), a Gen-Z-led movement demanding the resignation of India's Election Commission chief 1. The party's founder Abhijit Deepak and other senior leaders, including Saurav Das and Ashutosh Lanka, were detained upon arriving in Delhi on Saturday 3. Police blocked key protest routes, refused permission for a gathering at Jantar Mantar, and detained over 500 demonstrators; an additional 50 individuals were arrested on charges of being "antisocial elements" 1. Internet services were suspended in central Delhi during the operation 1.

The CJP has accused Election Commission chief Gyanesh Kumar of manipulating voter rolls and is pressing for electoral reforms amid upcoming state elections 3. The Election Commission denied these allegations, characterizing its actions as routine voter list maintenance to remove deceased, duplicate, or ineligible voters 3. The movement originated in May following comments by India's Chief Justice comparing unemployed youth to cockroaches, and gained prominence after Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan resigned in July under pressure from the campaign 3.

The police action drew sharp criticism from opposition figures and press freedom advocates. Indian National Congress member Shashi Tharoor described the deployment as "military-style," comparing it to an "undeclared emergency," while Aam Aadmi Party national coordinator Arvind Kejriwal called the measures "worse than emergency" 1. The International Committee of Journalists condemned police violence against reporters and called for immediate release of detained journalists 1. India's ranking in Reporters Without Borders' 2026 World Press Freedom Index declined to 157th out of 180 countries, down six places from 2025 1. Prime Minister Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party accused opposition parties of attempting to "provoke tensions" and claimed involvement of "foreign forces" in the protests 1.
