Delhi Detains Over 2,000 to Block Youth Protest Over Voter Rolls

Delhi police detained more than 2,000 people on Oct. 10, 2026, sealing off parts of the capital to stop a youth protest aimed at India's election chief. Thousands had planned to rally over millions of names removed from voter rolls — the official lists of eligible voters. The question now is whether organizers can regroup after the detentions.
