德里警察本周宣布,詹塔·曼塔将不再作为指定的抗议场所1。这一决定引发了对印度言论自由和集会权的担忧,因为该地点已作为抗议平台存在超过30年1。德里警察表示,此举是在最高法院建议确定具备充分基础设施的替代场所后采取的行动1。
政府指定的三个替代场地在距离和成本上都存在显著障碍。其中两个替代场地距离议会更远,第三个是拉姆里拉广场,需要提前数月预订且每天收费数万卢比1。批评人士警告,这些高昂的成本和不便的地点将使普通印度人的抗议活动更加困难1。该决定是在大规模由Z世代领导的抗议后几个月做出的,那次抗议导致联邦教育部长达摩德拉·普拉丹辞职,随后德里警察还镇压了相关支持者要求印度选举首席辞职的游行1。
Delhi police announced this week that Jantar Mantar, a landmark protest location in India, will no longer serve as a designated space for public demonstrations.1 The site has functioned as a protest venue for over three decades, establishing itself as a critical platform for Indians to voice grievances.1
The decision comes several months after large-scale protests led by Gen Z activists through the Chhatra Jantrik Paksha (CJP) movement, which resulted in the resignation of federal education minister Dharmendra Pradhan.1 Police subsequently cracked down on a march organized by CJP supporters demanding the resignation of India's election chief.1
The government has designated three alternative protest locations, but critics argue the move will effectively restrict ordinary citizens' ability to demonstrate.1 Two of the replacement sites are located farther from parliament, while the third—Ramlila Grounds—requires advance booking several months ahead and charges fees running into tens of thousands of rupees daily.1 Delhi police stated the action was taken following a Supreme Court recommendation to identify alternative venues with adequate infrastructure.1 Critics have warned that relocating protests to these sites risks pushing dissent beyond the reach of average Indians.1
