India clamps down on citizenship law protests
Critics say Narendra Modi’s Citizenship Amendment Act ‘has declared war on Muslims’
Authorities have imposed an emergency law banning large gatherings in parts of India’s capital, Delhi, as nationwide protests escalated, injuring police and demonstrators.
A week after a controversial new citizenship law was passed by parliament, which has been accused of openly discriminating against Muslims, protests across the country showed no sign of abating.
