भारत सरकार को भीमा कोरेगाँव कार्यकर्ताओं की अन्यायपूर्ण और क्रूर हिरासत को खत्म कर, उन्हें रिहा कर देना चाहिए।

भीमा कोरेगाँव गिरफ्तारीयों की दूसरी वर्षगांठ पर, भारत सरकार को 11 मानवाधिकार कार्यकर्ताओं को मामले की सुनवाई होने तक, रिहा करने पर विचार करना चाहिए और यह भी सुनिश्चित करना चाहिए कि उनकी स्वास्थ्य और सुरक्षा को सिर्फ इसलिए खतरे में न डाला जाए क्योंकि वे सरकार के आलोचक रहे हैं।
"पिछले दो वर्षों से इन कार्यकर्ताओं को जिस पीड़ा से गुज़रना पड़ा है वह इस बात का सबूत है कि कानूनी प्रक्रिया ही सजा सामान होती है" - @Avinash_1_Kumar

NEWS: Today marks the second anniversary of the Bhima Koregaon arrests.

It is nothing but cruel for the NIA to insist that the 11 activists must continue to remain in jail as the #COVID19 pandemic rages across Indian prisons.

"The NIA which reports to @AmitShah, continues to treat the 11 activists as if they have already been declared guilty, punishing them before they are convicted & making a mockery of their right to be presumed innocent until proven guilty" - @Avinash_1_Kumar

The Government of India must stop the crackdown on dissenting voices.

amnesty.org.in/news-update/go…
The use of India’s primary counter-terrorism law #UAPA against two students involved in anti-CAA protests - Meeran Haider and Safoora Zargar - is an extension of the crackdown on anyone who is critical of the state.
Amnesty International India believes that these new cases under UAPA, along with previous arrests of eleven other activists in relation to the Bhima Koregaon incident, are politically motivated actions that are aimed at silencing those seeking state accountability.
